Using Every Last Bit Out Of Bottles And Tubes
Heres another idea. Place the bottom of the tube (opposite the cap) on the edge of the counter and hold the tube with slight pressure while pulling the tube across the edge. This pushes all the ingredients to the cap end. I also push the shoulders of the tube...
Mark Corners On Bedspread
I have a similar tip for those sheets that have elastic all the way around. I just make a mental note of which corner of the bed the sheet tags are in when they are on the bed correctly. The next time I make the bed I just find the sheet tags and put that corner...
Lick Your Fingers to Open Plastic Bags
I would never lick my fingers or even touch my face in the grocery store. My solution is to wet them with the produce itself. They are always spraying the produce so just run your hand over a wet product. I usually dont take those bags, though, because thats...
