Freezing Fruit for PiesI take the fruit I grow and make pie filling as if I was going to bake a pie and freeze it in a freezer bag. I put a pies worth of filling in a freezer bag so that I can quickly put together a pie when I am ready to do some baking.

If the Flynn's Don't Have it . . .There was a large nice family that lived in the neighborhood. My children loved to play with their children. Of course, they lived quite austerely.

Get Books on Tape for Road TripsWhen I go on a trip in my car to visit my daughter and the grandchildren I get a book on tape from the library for free, to listen to as I travel. It is great company and the journey goes quicker.

Use That Bucket of Soapy WaterAfter you've hand-washed your vehicle, don't pour out the bucket of soapy water solution just yet-there's still a lot of cleaning power in those suds; pour it on dirty spots on your patio, carport/gargage floor, picnic table, you-name-it! Scrub the dirty spots with a stiff broom, then rinse with clean water. Voila! You've gotten double duty from your bucket of detergent!

Can you 'perk-up' frozen leftovers?I froze some mac & cheese. When it thawed out it was very 'blah'. Anybody got any suggestions for perking up something that shouldn't have been frozen; or was frozen incorrectly? BTW, I just put it in a freezer bag, how should I have done it?

Recycling Cement Blocks from Renovation? We are renovating a small home in the tropics of Qld. We are going to replace a falling wall with a window or door. In order to do this we have to remove the current wall which is made up of cement blocks, most will break during the demolition side, however having done this before (during summer!), I believe that there would be an easier, but more so, global friendly way to recycle these blocks in our garden.
