The next time you have green onions, don't throw away the white ends. Simply submerge them in a glass of water and place them in a sunny window. Your onions will begin to grow almost immediately and can be harvested almost indefinitely.

LOVE THIS!!!!! Clutter Busting Game using ping pong balls-Each person chooses a ball, completes the task, then chooses another one. After 30 minutes, whoever has the most balls gets a prize -- like a no-chores day, or gets to pick a movie. - Such a great idea!

Laura Y I have been doing this with my kids ever since they could write ... and now they're 22 and 20! Sometimes just a day goes by, sometimes a week, sometimes a month or more ... but it's always wonderful to go back and read our notes to one another.
When attached to the underside of a desk, a kitchen basket is perfect for corralling cords.

What a great birthday idea! One dollar for each year in separate balloons to pop them after cake and presents. Bigger bills for bigger "kids"....From Increasingly Domestic blog.

Simply rub onto greasy stains and the chalk powder will absorb the grease, making the stain easily removable by the laundry soap in the wash. I'll try it! Genius!!
