Removing Skunk Odor From Jewelry?
Tomato juice is supposed to remove the skunk smell from dogs, so you might try the jewelry, but since its acidic, I wouldnt leave in long without checking. Rinse and smell. If still stinky, soak a little longer.

Shop During Dinner Hours
I agree with the early shopping hours 6 to about 9:00 a.m., however, with kids, Id say from 9:00 p.m. to later would work best. Ive found, over the years, that Christmas shopping is best immediately after work 5:00 p.m.to about 7:00 when its a nasty rainy day...
Can I Freeze Zucchini Whole?
I wonder if you could freeze this whole if you freeze with dry ice? Alton Brown once did that with whole strawberries on his show and he said they froze so fast that they didnt get all mushy like regular freezing. I have no idea what dry ice costs, but it might...

Mushroom Barley Soup
I think its interesting that youve used caraway seeds in this. I took a jar of caraway seeds and processed them in my coffee grinder and use small amounts as additions to lots of dishes because I like the taste, but not necessarily the surprise of biting into...

Keeping Track of Logins, Websites and Phone Numbers
I email myself the links for sites I want to check or keep up with - I made myself a folder in my email called favorites to store them in. I also email myself with my information in the subject line of an email, such as Yahoo - my user name - my password. Then...
Turn A Photo Into A Window Outside
This would be a great idea if you have to live somewhere other than where you want (like Iraq). If you could make a photo of a favorite place and package it with a frame, then send to a soldier to hang in their tent or room, it would be such a nice thing to...
Lou's Meatloaf
