Don't fill your cooler with pricey store-bought ice or ice-packs! I use the 8- oz Ziploc round containers (no lids). Fill nearly to the top with water, and freeze over night. In the morning, pop the giant ice cubes directly into the cooler/large thermos to keep things cold for hours.

Use about 1/4 cup of baking soda using water to make a paste. Take a strubbing pad and spread paste all over the stove, heavy paste where tough stains are present. Leave for 15-20 minutes. Remove paste with a 100 percent cotton or sponge cloth and using a bucket of warm water.

Many people feel that they have to blanche produce prior to freezing; but you do not have to as long as it is washed in cold water, drained and placed into Zip Lock Baggies to whatever size you choose and allow the air out. I find that using these baggies takes up less space in the freezer.

Keeping Zip Loc Baggies allows you to purchase larger portions of meat and break down and freeze into these baggies and save on your grocery bill.

At my age, 48, seems not many of the people my age are on facebook, or other social networking sites.
I try to make myself available to find, if anyone is looking. I wish others would! I have lost track with so many people who meant so much to me.
Get yourself out there!

This is pretty basic, but have done for year's. While baking a cake or a meal, I always assemble all the ingredients before I start. As you add an ingredient, in order , put it back in the cupboard or refrigerator. Often I would forget if I added something & was lost. Helps for Alzhiemer's too!:)

At the end of each month, I look ahead to the next month to see what birthday's, anniversary's or special events are on my calendar and buy cards for all the occassions at one time. It saves me time going back and forth to stores and let's my loved ones know that I care!

I couldn't find a cover or mat for my new wooden table, and didn't want to put a table cloth on it. I bought a wood grain piece of vinyl floor covering and glued felt on the back. Some flooring will curl, just hot glue another piece of flooring to the back then add felt. Custom fit and cheap.

I keep a zip loc baggie full of ice in my freeaer door for burns and bug bites. I also use it on the back of by neck when I have a migraine and also on my temples. This is one of the best remedies I have found for my migraine headaches.

Keep a basket ready to set the table, in the basket you will have your plates, silverware, glasses (wrapped in cloth napkins if you choose glass), center piece, all covered with your tablecloth. Now everything is ready to set the table and your color and theme has been decided. Enjoy Summer!

When you grill, always grill for 2 extra people or go ahead and grill several different meats, if you don't need it then freeze it and use it when someone shows up for a great meal.
