Quickie: Prevent Snow from Sticking to Shovel.

When the snow is wet and slushy, it never fails that the snow is much heavier and sticks to the shovel. An easy, quick tip to prevent the snow from sticking to the shovel is wiping it down with cooking oil or cooking spray, before you start to shovel.

Oil and water never mix, so it will make the snowy mush, slide right off the shovel as you toss it aside.

Quickie: Remove Mud Stains on Carpet.

With wet conditions, it is easy to pick up dirt and mud on the shoes. Trekking it in the house to end up embedded into the rug, can be an unsightly hassle.

The simple way to get the mud stain out of the carpet is to first,vacuum over the stain. Then, spray a mix of 1 part Peroxide and 4 parts water over the stain (remember, peroxide is a natural bleach, so use with caution on darker rugs).

Put a towel over the stain for 10 minutes, while periodically pressing on the towel. This will lift up the mud.

Finally, mix together a grease fighting dish soap and water, and rub with a new clean towel, to get the remainder of the stain and neutralize the peroxide. Let dry, and vacuum again.

The stain should be lifted, naturally. Repeat process until stain has been lifted.

Quickie: Hate to Waste Bread.

Has it happened again? You buy a loaf of bread, expecting to eat it and now, it is about to expire. There are a few things to make with bread, to extend the life of it.

So, the next time you are faced with throwing it out tomorrow or taking a few minutes to make something with it, know you have options.

Making a french toast bake is a great way to use up old bread. Plus, after cooking you can cut it up and freeze it into single servings for breakfasts.

Also making bread crumbs is a great way to give the bread another life span.

And, if the bread has already started to go bad, and nature is your way; throw it to the birds. But, be sure you throw in an area that will keep birds and other critters away from the home. Also, take into account the safety of the animals, to where you throw, for example, don’t throw into a street.

Quickie: Sex as a Fountain of Youth?

It’s been studied that “casual” sex or “affairs” have been shown to have a very negative effect, by aging a person, substantially, mentally and physically, due to health risks and stress.

Studies have also found having monogamous sex with your partner on a weekly basis, can make you look and feel 7-10 years younger. When you know your partner has a full clean bill of health, sex can have many good benefits. See, Lack of Sex Making you Sick?

One more reason, to not tell your spouse/partner anymore, “you’re not in the mood”. It’s cheaper than botox.
