INVALUABLE TIPS

Take 2 minutes and read through this; you will be amazed at what you can learn!

Bed Sheets

After drying sheets, put both sheets and one pillowcase in the other
pillow case. Fold neatly in a square. Next time you change sheets, you
just take the one pillow case and all the sheets and pillow case are
inside. No need to look for matches.

Reheat Pizza

Heat up leftover pizza in a non-stick skillet on top of
the stove, set! heat to med-low and heat till warm. This keeps the crust
crispy. No soggy micro pizza. I saw this on the cooking channel and it
really works.

Reheating refrigerated bread

To warm biscuits, pancakes, or muffins
that were refrigerated,place them in a microwave with a cup of water.
The increased moisture will keep the food moist and help it reheat
faster.

Broken Glass

Use a dry cotton ball to pick up little broken pieces of
glass - the fibers catch ones you can't see!

Easier thank you's

When you throw a bridal/baby shower, buy a pack of
thank you cards for the guest of honor. During the party, pass out the
envelopes and have everyone put their address on one. When the
bride/new mother sends the thank you's, they're all addressed!

Name tag

If you purchase a new bike for your child, place their
picture inside the handle bar before placing the grips on. If the bike
is stolen and later recovered, remove the grip and there is your proof
who owns the bike.

Flexible vacuum

To get something out of a heat reister or under the
fridge add an empty paper towel roll or empty gift wrap roll to your
vacuum. It can be bent or flattened to get in narrow openings.

Reducing Static

Cling Pin a small safety pin to the seam of your slip
and you will not have a clingy skirt or dress. Same thing works with
slacks that cling when wearing panty hose. Place pin in seam of slacks
and -- voila -- static is gone.

Measuring Cups

Before you pour sticky substances into a measuring cup,
fill it with hot water. Dump out the hot water, but don't dry the cup.
Next, add your ingredient, such as peanut butter, and watch how easily
it comes right out.

Foggy Windshield? Hate foggy windshields?

Buy a chalkboard eraser and keep it in the glove box of your car. When the windows fog, rub with
the eraser! Works better than a cloth!

Ropening envelope

If you seal an envelope and then realize you forgot
to include something inside, just place your sealed envelope in the
freezer for an hour or two. Voila! It unseals easily.

Conditioner

Use your hair conditioner to shave your legs. It's a lot
cheaper than shaving cream and leaves your legs really smooth. It's
also a great way to use up the conditioner you bought but didn't like
when you tried it in your hair...

Good-bye Fruit Flies

To get rid of pesky fruit flies, take a small
glass fill it 1/2 with Apple Cider Vinegar and 2 drops of dishwashing
liquid, mix well. You will find those flies drawn to the cup and gone
forever!

Get Rid of Ants

Put small piles of cornmeal where you see ants. ! They
eat it, take it 'home,' & can't digest it so it kill s them. It may take
a week or so, ep. if it rains, but it works & you don't have the worry
about pets or small children being harmed!

** Take baby powder to the beach Keep a small bottle of baby powder in
your beach bag. When you're ready to leave the beach sprinkle yourself
and kids with the powder and the sand will slide right off your skin.
