Quickie: Get a Smooth Shave on Legs.

To get a quick smooth shave on your legs, use hair conditioner to shave your legs. The conditioner will soften the course hair. I do not recommend using conditioner on armpits or vaginal areas due to fragrances that could change your body’s PH.

Trigger Plants to Grow. Tips on Triggers:

Tips on Triggers: Trigger Plants to Grow.

Not all were born with a green thumb, so finding a little help in the garden can go a long way. A great way to trigger your plants to grow, could be using used coffee grounds.

Now, that most coffee drinkers use the k-cup, this could actually be an easier process in some ways.

Coffee grounds can get moldy so, try putting a stash of used k-cups in a bag and keeping them sealed in the fridge until you are ready to cut open the top and spread the grounds in the flower beds.

One cup would be enough for 1 section of plants. This makes measuring easy.

Cucumbers Look Fancy with Ridges.

By Tia Cristy

Problem: Hi Tia, thanks for what you do. There’s a lot of parties coming up. Money is tight, so I want to do things DIY and I was wondering how do they make vegetable trays look so pretty, like the ridges on cucumbers?

Tip from Tia: Thank you for reading. I am all about doing things yourself when it comes to parties, as long as it’s not too overwhelming. Remember, it’s a party and you want to enjoy it too. You can save a lot money by doing it yourself, without going cheap.

Pay a couple extra dollars for garnishes that can make the tray look pretty, because more than likely, you still saved money.

Now, to answer your question on wondering how they make cucumbers look fancy with ridges on a veggie tray, peel the cucumber rinse it. Take a fork and run it down the sides of the cucumber. Slice it up. Spread the ridged circles nicely on the platter. Simple touches can make a difference.

Quickie: Bring Back Natural Hair Highlights After Winter.

Natural highlights always seem to dull during the long winter months. Boost back highlights, by adding a small amount of lemon juice to shampoo. Adding only a couple drops, will help the sun brighten your locks naturally, without bleaching. For getting a lighter effect, add more lemon juice and let it sit for a couple minutes, before washing out.

Grapes Go Bad, but Raisins Don’t Go Bad. Tips in Action:

By Tia Cristy

Tips in Action: Grapes Go Bad, but Raisins Don’t Go Bad.

Raisins are dried grapes. We know that grapes can spoil, but what about raisins? If your box of raisins have been sitting in the cabinet for a long time, and they don’t have much life left, they are hard and stuck together, don’t throw them out, they’re still good.

To return life back to the raisin, boil a pot of water. Remove the pot from the burner and add the raisins and let sit for a few minutes.

The water will restore plumpness back to the dried fruit, as good as new.
