SOME IDEA'S YOU CAN USE LEMON JUICE OR LEMON'S FOR..
-----------------------------------
Remove ink spots from clothing.
While ink is wet, apply Lemon liberally to the spot, then wash the garment in normal cycle with regular detergent in cold water.

I will say, this works best if you can line dry your garment in the sun.
I use Real Lemon juice FROM THE STORE!!! The stuff in the green bottle..
--------------------------------------------

Remove rust and mineral discolorations on cotton t-shirts and briefs.
Use one cup Lemon juice in the washer.
Again, best if you can SUN DRY THE GARMENT'S...

----------------------------

THIS ONE IS MY FAVORITE, AND I DO THIS ALL THE TIME!!!!!
-----------------------------
Clean a microwave oven.
Add four tablespoons Lemon juice to one cup water in a microwave-safe, four-cup bowl. Boil for five minutes in the microwave, allowing the steam to condense on the inside walls of the oven. Then wipe clean.

Here's a tip for cooking bacon:

     

Instead of frying bacon, lay strips on a jelly roll pan and bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes. Prepared this way, bacon comes out crisp and flat. Plus, the pan cleans easily, and there's no stove-top spattering.

If you own a GEORGE FORMAN GRILL. Cook your bacon in it.

We usually cook an entire pound of bacon and crumble. USE FOR SALADS. Our family eats a lot of salad. A SPRINKLING OF REAL BACON ON IT IS GREAT.  I use this as a wonderful addition to a quick potato thingie..

If you live alone, PUT SMALL SERVING SIZES IN FREEZER. KEEP ONLY WHAT YOU WILL USE FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS IN FRIDGE.

--------------------

If you prefer to fry single slices every morning, (The smell is wonderful!!) REMOVE THE ENTIRE POUND OF BACON FROM WRAPPING BEFORE YOU FREEZE OR STORE IT.

Place single pieces BETWEEN WAX  paper or tin foil ( I use resealable tin foil..) Seal in a double bagged baggie.. If you need to unthaw to remove, just a few seconds in a microwave will be enough to remove your single serving choices. You  should be able to pull your choices away easily..

 

THE BACON IS REALLY GREAT ON THE JELLY ROLL PAN. THINK ABOUT A BROILER PAN. SPRAY IT, LAY  IT, AND BAKE IT. (ALL BACONS OR SIDE PORKS) 

 Just thought of a GREAT SOUP IDEA..

 

1. Make a paste of baking soda and water and rub on insect bites to relieve itching.  
2. Remove coffee and tea stains by scrubbing pots or cups with baking soda and a plastic scouring pad. 
3. Add 1/3 cup baking soda to a wash cycle as a bleach booster or to the rinse cycle for cleaner smelling laundry. 
4. To remove black scuff marks from floor, rub them with a paste of baking soda and water. 
5. Clean fiberglass showers and tubs with baking soda sprinkled one sponge. Sponge clean and wipe dry. 
6. Soak sour smelling dishcloths and sponges in water and baking soda solution. 
7. Use a solution of water and baking soda to clean and deodorize the inside of your microwave. 
8. Put a few spoonfuls in a cup of water in the microwave, boil for two minutes, then wipe down the inside with a sponge. 
9. Sprinkle a little baking soda into the laundry hamper to minimize odors.  
10. Remove crayon marks from walls by scrubbing gently with an old toothbrush and a paste of baking soda and water. 

If you are following a recipe from a card, you know how it can get very dirty and splashed with exotic ingredients.  To keep it pristine, put the card in the prongs of a fork and set the fork in a glass in front of you....   ...and don't touch it again until you have washed your hands!!          Reply from dianne11323:   You can also place your precious recipe card in a CLEAR NOTE BOOK. The type kids use for SCHOOL TERM PAPERS.. Remove their papers, store in folders in underbed clear plastic containers. Wash covering inside and out Keep a few in the kitchen to simply LAY YOUR RECIPE UNDER WHILE YOU FOLLOW RECIPE. WASH EVERYTHING.   A LARGER PICTURE HOLDER WORKS GREAT TO HOLD RECIPES (Not the frame, just the holder). If you have some really favorites and have a way to LAMINATE THEM...KEEP A BOX OF FAVORITES LAMINATED. SIMPLY WIPE OFF YOUR RECIPE WHEN FINISHED. I had all my favorites laminated at our local Library. The laminate machines are available almost everywhere..  CLOTHESPINS WORK GREAT ALSO!  Glen made me a recipe holder out of an old piece of wood with a clothespin attached.  IT'S REALLY EASY TO DO. CUT THE WOOD OR WHATEVER, ADD A BACK HOLDER SO YOUR RECIPE IS EASILY VISABLE. ATTACH WITH A CLOTHESPIN. Mine is not glued on. I keep a few on the counters for closures for almost every bag in this house, as well as for holding recipes. USE THE CLOTHES PINS.. AND wood.

Storage containers do not HAVE TO BE EXPENSIVE..
