328/365

Random Stuff I Find on Pinterest:

Ice Proofing the Car Windows with 2/3 Vinegar 1/3 water! Just spray on windows and ice will melt away! - Shut the front door - this is great for someone like me who is too short and can't reach the middle of my front window with the scraper lol.

Clean windows, mirrors and wine glasses with coffee filters. They are lint free and leave no streaks!

Jan. 1, turn all your hangers backwards. As you wear clothes, turn the hanger around. Anything that is still backwards on June 1, toss.

When nasty weeds pop up, don't reach for the weed killer. Douse them with vinegar, lemon juice or boiling water instead. The weeds will likely shrivel in a day or so. Resilient ones rarely withstand a second treatment.

If you aren’t sure how fresh your eggs are, place them in about four inches of water. Eggs that stay on the bottom are fresh. If only one end tips up, the egg is less fresh and should be used soon. If it floats, it’s past the fresh stage.

Don’t store your bananas in a bunch or in a fruit bowl with other fruits. Separate your bananas and place each in a different location. Bananas release gases which cause fruits (including other bananas) to ripen quickly. Separating them will keep them fresh longer.
I need to try this!


A cotton ball soaked in white vinegar and applied to a fresh bruise will reduce the darkness of the bruise and help it disappear sooner.  Good to know if you have to wear a bridesmaid's dress or be photographed.
