Handy hints

[unrulyjulie]

My best friend bought me a lovely and very useful book for christmas. Hints for the household. I would like to share a few "specially chosen" ones with my fellow answerbankers and hope that they can help you out at some point in the future.

Hint number 1
Unruly eyebrows..............
If, after plucking your eyebrows,(ladies and possibly gents if you're that way inclined,) they are still unruly, apply a little styling gel or mousse with an eyebrow brush.(i did actually think this one was about me when i first saw it)

Hint number 2.
with glass in hand..................
next time you are at a party, finish each drink before filling your glass. that way you will know exactly how many glasses you have had and when its time to stop!!!!( LOL yeah right )

Hint Number 3.(my personal favourite.)
Instant face lift....................
SMILE, (so simple and free to do!)


Hint number 4
Tight screws....................
If a screw is proving too tight to get out, try heating the tip of your screwdriver. (made ya look ;-) )

Hint number 5.
Peppers.......................
A scooped out red, green, or yellow pepper will make an unusual and stylish holder for mayonaise (i must have a dinner party so i can try that one out for myself and impress my guests )

Hint number 6.
Ice cream.......................
Cut large blocks of ice cream into individual portions. That way you only need take out as much as you need. (again, yeah right, just take two instead)

Hint number 7.
Red wine stains.........
Use lots of salt on red wine stains. Alternatively a good splash of white wine will do the trick.
(and waste all the white wine as well as the red you've wasted by spilling it????, madness)

Thats your lot!

My hint is:

When washing a chopping board with chicken/meat juices on it boil the kettle and slowly pour over the board. It will cook the juices thus killing EColi, salmonella etc.

Was this done before or after the only gay in the village?

A very long time before Tiggs, they're not together anymore. I saw the one with guitar back in 1999 or 2000 I think. I believe they're now seperate acts.

Julie, my handy hint is to use a teeny wee bit of vaseline (or other petroleum based product) on the end of your cotton so when you are threading a needle, the end doesn't fray. I now you do enjoy your darning.

Also, keep your house keys on some string round your neck so that if a thief takes your handbag, you can still get in your house.
