Tips for a lifetime

1. Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice-cream drips.

2. Use a meat baster to "squeeze" your pancake onto the hot griddle. Perfectly shaped pancakes everytime.

3. To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.

4. To pervent eggshells from cracking, add a pinch of salt to the water before hard-boiling.

5. Run your hands under cold water before pressing Rice Krispies treats in the pan, the marshmallow won't stick to your fingers.

6. To get the most juice out of fresh lemons, bring them to room temperature and roll them under your palm against the kitchen counter before squeezing.

7. Spray your Tupperware with non-stick cooking spray before pouring in tomato-based sauces, no more stains.

8. Place a slice of apple in hardened brown sugar to soften it back up.

9. Cure for head-aches -- Take a lime cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away.

10. Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.

11. Use air-freshener to clean mirrors. It does a good job and better still, leaves a lovely smell to the shine.

Life is a journey, so enjoy the trip.
