Holiday Thank You Cards

Buy thank you Cards in advance. Together, write a family newsletter to enclose and address many of the envelopes early. On Christmas morning, write gift on the left side of the card, when all gifts are opened, add a note, attach letter and mail.

Christmas card list

I peel or cut off the return address stickers from the Christmas card I receive and tape them in a Christmas log book. I mark off who I sent cards to and who sent me one back with the year checked off.

Juicy Ice

Pour your juice or punch into ice cube trays and freeze. Use instead of regular ice, they keep the juice cold without getting watered down. Great for buffets and holiday parties.

Hosting Holiday Guests

Minimize stress when entertaining holiday guests by using disposable plates, utensils, and napkins. Clean-up is easier and you get to spend more time with friends and family.

Thank you notes

At a baby shower I put out the envelopes of the thank you notes so the guest can fill in their own name and addresses. At the end of the party I collect them and give them to the guest of honor. It save them time from finding everyone address.

Easier Thank You Notes

When you throw a bridal/baby shower, buy a pack of thank you cards for the guest of honor. During the party, pass out the envelopes and have everyone put their address on one. When the bride/new mom writes the thank you's, they're all addressed!

Keep a cucumber fresh

Here's a way to keep a cucumber fresh up to 2 weeks after you start using it. Wrap a paper towel around the cucumber but dont cover cut end. Then put in any plastic bag. I have had success keeping one for 2 weeks.
