Is there any difference between baby wipes and disinfectant wipes, in terms of the chemicals already in them and how they react in the microwave or with the inks?<br /><br />Just out of interest, I've never heard of kitchen paper before - in our house we call it 'kitchen roll' which is how it's usually labelled in the supermarket as well. Some of it is quite thick, and I wonder if it would be more resilient than the thin, cheap stuff, if it was used in a book?nerllybirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01833436415313977825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14359045.post-80965530008084295672011-09-19T16:37:27.228-05:002011-09-19T16:37:27.228-05:00wonderful colors and play
