On today's date, April 15, in 1951, the current Heloise columnist — daughter of the original household hints guru — was born. She's been writing the "Hints from Heloise" column since 1977, and has provided many a helpful hint. To celebrate her birthday, I thought it would be fun to see how many of her hints you know. Ready to find out? Then take our quiz!
