What else can be added to this list?

1. Separate your bananas as soon as you get home from the store. If you leave them connected at the stem, they will ripen more quickly.
2. Wrap your opened cheese in aluminum foil to keep it fresh for a longer time and prevent mold!
3. Choose peppers with three bumps on the bottom for a sweeter taste, ideal for eating. Peppers with four bumps are firmer and better suited for cooking.
4. When frying ground beef, add a teaspoon of water. It helps separate the grease from the meat while cooking.
5. For a richer flavor in scrambled eggs or omelets, incorporate a couple of spoonfuls of sour cream, cream cheese, or heavy cream before whisking.
6. For a refreshing brownie dessert, bake the brownies according to the package instructions. Melt Andes mints using a double boiler and pour over the warm brownies. Let it set for a delightful minty top.
7. To achieve a light garlic flavor, add garlic at the beginning of your recipe; for a more intense garlic taste, add it towards the end.
8. Use leftover Snickers bars from Halloween to create a tasty dessert. Chop them up using a food chopper, peel, core, and slice a few apples, then place them in a baking dish and sprinkle the chopped candy over the apples. Bake at 350°F for 15 minutes! Serve it plain or with vanilla ice cream. Delicious!
9. To reheat pizza, place the leftovers in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until warmed through. This method keeps the crust crispy, avoiding the sogginess of microwaving. I learned this from a cooking show, and it works great!
10. For hassle-free deviled eggs, put the cooked egg yolks in a zip-lock bag. Seal it and crush the yolks until broken. Add the remaining ingredients, reseal, and blend everything together. Cut a small tip off the bag and squeeze the mixture into the egg halves. Dispose of the bag for easy cleanup.
11. To make your cake frosting go further, whip the store-bought frosting with a mixer for a few minutes. You’ll double its volume, allowing you to frost more cakes or cupcakes with the same amount, while also reducing sugar and calories per serving.
12. To reheat refrigerated biscuits, pancakes, or muffins, place them in the microwave alongside a cup of water. The added moisture helps keep the food moist and warms it up faster.
13. To suppress weeds around your plants, layer wet newspapers around them, overlapping as you go. Cover with mulch, and you won’t have to worry about weeds. Unlike garden plastic, weeds can’t penetrate wet newspapers.
14. For broken glass shards that are difficult to see, use a wet cotton ball or Q-tip to pick them up easily.
15. To deter mosquitoes, tuck a dryer sheet in your pocket. It effectively keeps them at bay!
16. To prevent squirrels from munching on your plants, sprinkle cayenne pepper around them. It won’t harm the plants, but squirrels will stay away.
17. To reach items under a heat register or behind the fridge, attach an empty paper towel or gift wrap roll to your vacuum. It can be shaped or compressed to fit into tight spaces.
18. To reduce static cling, attach a small safety pin to the seam of your slip. This also works with slacks; put a pin in the seam, and the static will disappear!
19. When measuring sticky ingredients, fill the measuring cup with hot water first. Pour out the water without drying the cup and then add your ingredient, like peanut butter, for easy removal. Alternatively, you can spray the cup or spoon with cooking spray before use.
20. If you dislike foggy windshields, keep a chalkboard eraser in your car’s glove box. When the windows fog up, simply rub the eraser on the glass—it works better than a cloth!
21. If you’ve sealed an envelope and realized something needs to be added, place the sealed envelope in the freezer for an hour or two. It will unseal easily afterward.
22. Use your conditioner as a shaving cream for your legs. It’s a cost-effective alternative that leaves your legs feeling smooth, and it’s a great way to use up conditioner you didn’t like in your hair.
23. To eliminate annoying fruit flies, take a small glass and fill it halfway with apple cider vinegar along with a couple of drops of dish soap; mix it well. You’ll find that the flies are attracted to the mixture and will be gone for good!
24. To get rid of ants, leave small piles of cornmeal in areas where you see them. They’ll eat it, take it back to their nest, and because they can’t digest it, it will kill them. It may take about a week, especially after rain, but it’s effective and safe for pets and kids!
25. Even if you regularly clean your dryer’s lint filter, using dryer sheets can cause a waxy buildup that leads to overheating. To resolve this, clean the filter with a toothbrush and hot soapy water every six months.
