Use the flat thing that holds the bread wrapper closed on the end of masking tape to keep up with the end.
Zinc oxide for burns — I don’t know if it works as well on sunburn but is AMAZING on other burns. I grabbed the handle of a sautee pan I’d just removed from the oven, and practically melted my palm. :eek: I slathered zinc oxide on it, wrapped it, and in the morning no more burn. Just a dried-up crusty place. And no more pain.
Um, sometimes someone might wake up in a place where we don’t have a toothbrush.
It’s much more convenient to just rub over the dried ink with one of the markers and then erase.
Mine changes with the seasons, though, because in the winter the tap water is cold and in the summer it’s much warmer.
Your breath smells like Cindy’s Cootch, a cracker or bread ain’t the answer. Sorry, a pet peeve.
Which reminds me, if someone offers you a breath mint, take it.
I’ve heard things like this before. Am I the only person who just folds the last inch of masking tape under itself?
Here’s one that kinda goes along with the previously mentioned olive oil getting pine sap off skin- baby oil works great on stuff like that, too. One summer I worked for the state highway department painting salt trucks and snow plows. I came home really covered in overspray- hair, face where it was not covered by the respirator, hands, and forearms. A few days I got road tar on me. Baby oil slathered on dissolved all the paint and/or tar and allowed further complete cleaning with soap, water, and a washcloth. I have found since then that it works on most anything that’s not water soluble- paints, adhesives, etc.
Oh- veggie oil’s a better choice for pet cleaning. I once had to use salad oil to clean vinyl flooring adhesive off of my (stupid) dog. Worked fine.
"and use your finger to coat the rim of the lass with the alcohol. "
Which makes a lot more sense than leaving the alcohol out of the glass. Unless you’re a crooked bartender I don’t where the intended advice would be useful.
If I could coat the rim of the lass with alcohol, I probably wouldn’t even need to be buying her drinks.
The truly adventurous can add salt and a lime…
I fold 1/4" under.
I think I like the bread tab idea though - that way you don’t have to tear off and dispose of the folded-under piece.
Obviously a toothbrush is the best thing. But sometimes you’re camping don’t have the opportunity to brush first thing in the morning. Or you slept on a long flight and don’t have a toothbrush. In situations like that, eating something can help clean up your mouth.
Failsafe reaheating in the oven: Use the Time Cook option on your stove (if it has one) to automatically turn the oven off after a certain time. You don’t necessarily have to let the oven preheat. Put the frozen pizza or whatever in, turn the oven on, and set the timer for a minute or two more than the recommended time. You’ll come back to a perfectly cooked meal no matter how long it’s left in.
I finally figured this out after burning umpteen pizzas because I got involved in a game or something and didn’t hear the timer go off.
These are great - this is a brilliant idea for pasta; I’m one of the few people in the world who has a tall, thin container for spaghetti, but I would use this if I didn’t.
Why would you want to do this?
I take a vitamin C pill when my legs get to jumpin’; it really seems to work for me.
How did you know it’s Finnish? That wasn’t listed as a life hack, but I thought it would be useful.
A disposable brush/paste takes the space of a pen.

Actually, this is true for everyone. One of my favorite cures for insomnia. 
I’ve heard this as a trick that bartenders use when they’re dealing with someone whose already had too much to drink. I suspect that if you aren’t plastered already, you’d probably notice the lack of alcohol. Not to mention the bartender wiping his finger on your [g]lass
From the box. Suklaamousse is Finnish for chocolate mousse.
