Some household tips:
If you place a wooden spoon across a pot of boiling water it won’t boil over.
You can run a paper bag [that fits] through your printer to decorate it with the design of your choice.
If you break a blender jar you can replace it by screwing the blade apparatus over the rim of a mason jar.
Plastic cereal canisters make the perfect trash can for your car when a plastic bag is inserted.
Take your bananas apart when you get them home since they ripen slower when not on the stem.
Plant your plants in the ground and work the soil. Then wet news paper and layer then around the plants overlapping as you go. Cover with mulch and forget about weeds. They can’t get through wet newspaper.
Pin a small safety pin to the seam of a skirt or slacks to eliminate static cling.
Before you pour sticky substances into a measuring cup, fill with it hot water. Pour out the hot water, but don’t dry the cup. Next, add your sticky ingredient and watch how easily it comes out.
If an envelope seals up before you can use it, place it in a freezer for 1-2 hrs. It unseals easily.
Get rid of ants by putting small piles of cornmeal where you see them crawling. They take the cornmeal back to their nest and can’t digest it so they die. It may take a week for them to disappear- give it time.
