Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to < < prevent < < < < ice cream drips. < < < < < < < < 2. Use a meat baster to "squeeze" your pancake batter onto the hot < < < < griddle and you'll get perfectly shaped pancakes every time < < < < < < < < 3. To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the < < potatoes. < < < < < < 4. To prevent egg shells from cracking, add a pinch of salt to the < < water < < < < before hard-boiling. < < < < < < < < 5. Run your hands under cold water before pressing Rice Krispies < < treats < < < < in the pan and the marshmallow won't stick to your fingers. < < < < < < < < 6. To get the most juice out of fresh lemons, bring them to room < < < < temperature and roll them under your palm against the kitchen counter < < < < before squeezing. < < < < < < < < 7. To easily remove burnt on food from your skillet, simply add a drop < < or < < < < two of dish soap and enough water to cover bottom of pan, and bring to < < a < < < < boil on stove-top.. < < < < < < < < 8. Spray your Tupperware with nonstick cooking spray before pouring in < < < < tomato-based sauces and there won't be any stains. < < < < < < < < 9. When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking pan, use a bit of < < the < < < < dry cake mix instead and there won't be any white mess on the outside < < the cake. < < < < < < < < 10. If you accidentally over-salt a dish while it's still cooking, < < drop < < < < in a peeled potato and it will absorb the excess salt for an instant < < "fix < < < < me up." < < < < < < < < 11. Wrap celery in aluminum foil when putting in the refrigerator and < < it will keep for weeks. < < < < < < < < 12. Brush some beaten egg white over pie crust before baking to yield < < a < < < < beautiful glossy finish. < < < < < < < < 13. Place a slice of apple in hardened brown sugar to soften it. < < < < < < < < 14. When boiling corn on the cob, add a pinch of sugar to help bring < < out the corn's natural sweetness. < < < < < < < < 15. To determine whether an egg is fresh place it in a pan of cool, < < salted water. If it sinks, it is fresh, but if it rises to the surface, < < throw it away < < < < < < < < 16. Cure for headaches: Take a lime cut it in half and rub it on your < < forehead. The throbbing will go away. < < < < < < < < 17. Don't throw out all that leftover wine: Freeze into ice cubes for < < future use in casseroles and sauces. < < < < < < < < 18. If you have a problem opening jars: Try using latex dish washing < < gloves. They give a non-slip grip that makes opening jars easy. < < < < < < < < 19. Potatoes will take food stains off your fingers. Just slice and < < rub raw potato on the stains and rinse with water. < < < < < < < < 20. To get rid of itch from mosquito bites, try applying soap on the < < area < < and you will experience instant relief. < < < < < < < < 21. Ants, ants, ants everywhere ... Well, they are said to never < < cross < < < < a chalk line. So get your chalk out and draw a line on the floor o < < wherever ants tend to march. See for yourself. < < < < < < < < 22. Use air-freshener to clean mirrors. It does a good job and better < < still, leaves a lovely smell to the shine. < < < < < < < < 23. When you get a splinter, reach for the scotch tape before < < resorting < < < < to tweezers or a needle. Simply put the scotch tape over the splinter, < < then pull it off. Scotch tape removes most splinters painlessly and < < easily. < < < < < < < < 24. Now look what you can do with Alka Seltzer. < < < < < < < < Clean a toilet. Drop in two Alka-Seltzer tablets, wait twenty minutes, < < < < brush and flush. The citric acid and effervescent action clean < < vitreous china. < < < < < < < < 25. Clean a vase. To remove a stain from the bottom of a glass vase or < < < < cruet, fill with water and drop in two Alka-Seltzer tablets. < < < < < < < < 26. Polish jewelry. Drop two Alka-Seltzer tablets into a glass of < < water < < < < and immerse the jewelry for two minutes. < < < < < < < < 27. Clean a thermos bottle. Fill the bottle with water, drop in four < < < < Alka-Seltzer tablets, and let soak for an hour (or longer, if < < necessary). < < < < < < < < 28. Unclog a drain. Clear the sink drain by dropping three < < Alka-Seltzer < < < < tablets down the drain followed by a cup of Heinz White Vinegar - < < < < Wait a few minutes, then run the hot water. < < < < < < < < 29. Do your friends a favor. Pass this timely (and some not-so-timely) < < < < information on to a friend or two < < < < < < << __________________________________________________ < < < Do You Yahoo!? < < < Yahoo!
