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.



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




Foggy Windshield?
Hate foggy windshields? Buy a chalkboard eraser  and keep it in the
glove boxof your car. When the windows fog, rub with the  eraser!
Works better than a cloth!




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.



Easy Deviled  Eggs
Put cooked egg yolks in a zip lock bag. Seal, mash till they are  all
broken up. Add remainder of ingredients, reseal, keep mashing it  up
mixing thoroughly, cut the tip of the baggy, squeeze mixture  into
egg. Just throw bag away when done easy clean up.





Expanding Frosting
When you buy a container of cake frosting from  the store, whip it with
your mixer for a few minutes. You can double it in  size. You get to
frost more cake/cupcakes with the same amount. You also  eat less
sugar/calories per serving.
 
 


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




Newspaper weeds away
Start putting in your plants, work the  nutrients in your soil. Wet
newspapers: put layers around the plants  overlapping as you go cover
with mulch and forget about weeds. Weeds will  get through some
gardening plastic they will not get through wet  newspapers.




Reopening 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.




MINE!!!!!
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 register 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 n arrow  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.




No More Mosquitoes
Place a dryer sheet in  your pocket. It will keep the mosquitoes
away.





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.





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 mom sends  the
thank you's, they're all addressed!




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 dish washing 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 kills them. It may take a week or so,
ESP. if it rains, but it works  & you don't have the worry about pets
or small children being  harmed!

ok i dont know if this works or not, but my mom says to clean a silver ring, to take ketchup and that will take the tarnish off...i bought a new ring when i was gone, i paid quite abit for it, and i notices it was getting black i was like wth!  so my mom says take some ketchup and it will take the black off, then she told me to put clear nail polish so that it wont tarnish again.

Thanks for these hints.  They can come in handy when something occurs.  I've printed them out so that i can refer to them.

These are all great tips and I know alot of them work as I've used them before.  As most of you know, I'm a bird freak so I have a "few" Hummingbird feeders in my flower beds. I used to have trouble with the ants invading those feeders, for the sugar water, but the cornmeal trick gets rid of them quickly!  It doesn't take much of the stuff either.  They seem to gobble that stuff up!!
