Health tips
Grapefruit Juice
Grapefruit or grapefruit juice interferes with the enzymes in your body that break down certain drugs, which could cause side effects. If you enjoy the fruit or the juice, ask your doctor or pharmacist if it could interact with any prescription drugs, over the counter drugs, vitamins or herbal supplements you take.

5. To determine whether an egg is fresh, immerse it in a

    Krispies treats in the pan and the marshmallow won't
    Stick to your fingers.

    Stove-top.

      Before pouring in tomato-based sauces and there

11. When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking pan,
      Use a bit of the dry cake mix instead and there won't
      Be any white mess on the outside of the cake.
12. If you accidentally over-salt a dish while it's still
      Cooking, drop in a peeled potato and it will absorb the
      Excess salt for an instant "fix me up."
13. Wrap celery in aluminum foil when putting in the
      Refrigerator and it will keep for weeks.

15. Place a slice of apple in hardened brown sugar to
      Soften it.

17. If you have a problem opening jars: Try using latex
      Dishwashing gloves. They give a non-slip grip that
      Makes opening jars easy.
18. Potatoes will take food stains off your fingers. Just
      Slice and rub raw potato on the stains and rinse with
      Water.

19. To get rid of itch from mosquito bites, try applying
      Soap on the area and you will experience instant
      Relief.
20. Ants, ants, ants everywhere ... Well, they are said to
      Never cross a chalk line. So get your chalk out and
      Draw a line on the floor or wherever ants tend to
      March. See for yourself.

21. Use air-freshener to clean mirrors. It does a good job
      And better still, leaves a lovely smell to the shine.
22. When you get a splinter, reach for the scotch tape
      Before resorting to tweezers or a needle. Simply put
      The scotch tape over the splinter, then pull it off.
      Scotch tape removes most splinters painlessly and
      Easily.

23. Don't throw out all that leftover wine: Freeze into ice
      Cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.
24. Now look what you can do with Alka Seltzer!
  • Clean a toilet. Drop in two Alka-Seltzer tablets, wait twenty minutes, brush, and flush. The citric acid and effervescent action clean vitreous China.
  • Clean a vase. To remove a stain from the bottom of a glass vase or cruet, fill with water and drop in two Alka-Seltzer tablets.

  • Unclog a drain. Clear the sink drain by dropping three Alka-Seltzer tablets down the drain followed by a cup of Heinz White Vinegar Wait a few minutes, then run the hot water.
