Dog Treats

Since my little tubby cocker spaniel thinks she needs her doggie cookies on a daily basis, I realized that if I cut each treat into several thin slices and dole them out that way, she thinks she is still getting several cookies, when in fact she is actually getting only two whole cookies.

Pesky Mosquitoes

To keep those pesky mosquitoes away, put medicinal mouthwash in a spray bottle and spray it around the area where you'll be entertaining. You can even apply it to your skin. It works!

Unclog Drains

I use baking soda and ammonia with lemon to unclog drains. It's cheaper then store-bought. I treat sinks and bath tub monthly just to help keep them under control.

Used Coffee Grounds

No need to buy plant food anymore. Use your brewed coffee grounds: a solution of one part coffee and four parts cool water. Pour it on your plant's roots once a week. It makes a great homemade plant food. It works! I have been using it for years.

Puppy Potty-training Treats

Our new puppy is paper-training, and I give her a treat when she's done well. I just use some different color puppy chow, so she's not getting real dog treats all day.
