Here is a mixture that should help make removing blood a little easier. Mix 1/2 cup of 3% hydrogen peroxide and 1 teaspoon of ammonia. Apply the blood stain. Wash [...]
Every once in a while, I cook something that uses brown sugar. I don’t cook with it that often, so my brown sugar is usually hard as a rock or clumps together. This makes it somewhat challenging to measure the amount needed.
A simple solution is to soften the brown sugar. Do this by breaking off [...]
Baking Soda is one of those essential products that we have on hand all the time. It ranks right up there with rubbing alcohol as a versatile and useful household item.
I had bought a used electronic toy that wasn’t working. I noticed the battery compartment was somewhat corroded. After using a Q-tip, a bit of [...]
Never again will I buy cheap trash bags. I thought I would save some money and buy a cheaper trash bag. I’ve learned my lesson.
I’ve had a few tear on me, which means doubling up on bags. They are also very small, and you can only fill it half-way if you want any hope of [...]

Over the next few weeks, [...]
I switched auto insurance companies in February. Our once reasonable rate seemed to get higher every six months. Determined I could find a better rate, I collected a few quotes and went with the best deal. I made what I thought was my first months payment and was surprised when I received a bill within [...]
I bought some shoebox size storage boxes a while back. They have a pullout drawer and are very versatile. I have used them at work where I shared a cubicle space with another person, so there was really no space for any personal items. When I left that job, I added those boxes to a [...]
