Bounce Keeps the Bugs Away

I was interviewing Bill Homan, partner in the D.C.-area catering firm Design Cuisine, the other day, and he shared this tip that everyone planning an outdoor wedding needs to know. "Bounce is the ultimate bug repellant," he says. That's right--Bounce dryer sheets. Bill told me that for an elegant garden wedding, his staff tied the Bounce sheets around table legs, and they kept bugs from nibbling on the ankles of wedding guests.
