quick easy meals

Buy chicken when on sale. Cook all the chicken at one time. Dice or shred chicken and freeze in bags. Chicken freezes very well and you can prepare quick, easy meals. We often make enchiladas, casseroles, calzones, pizza, burritos, etc... thats 15 min. prep and into the oven. You get a hot home cooked meal in less time than it takes for delivery.

Grocery bag holder

I keep two small rectangle trahs cans on the opposite side of my garage steps...I put plastic bags in one and brown paper bags in the other...They can be used for garden projects, recycling, yard waste or just for stuffing fall boots...Anytime I reach for one they are there... I place the tall recyle yard waste bags down the side of the brown paper trash can and they are ready in a snap!

cleaning up a big puddle of water

I had a big water puddle in the basement. Using a sponge mop was too slow so I cut the elastic on a couple disposable diapers, put them face down in the puddle and VOILA no more water, and they didn't drip!

Safety Pin Socks Together

Keep your clean socks pinned together with a safety pin. When you wash them, the socks never get separated. Easy to fold and put away because sock is already matched. No more lost socks and less time putting away aundry.

Digital Camera Reminder

Before each holiday, I always place a reminder on my computer calendar to pack my digital camera in my purse along with a couple extra batteries. When I get to an event I have my camera and extra batteries at hand.
