THIS REALLY WORKS AND LAUNDRY IS SUPER SOFT!!! Soak a hand towel in fabric softener. Squeeze out any remaining drops from the towel. Hang it over a chair (or outside on a clothes line) to dry. My house smelled super clean for the three days while this towel was drying completely. Yes, it took three days! You must make sure it dries completely! After the towel dries you just throw it in your dryer along with clothes and use it as a dryer sheet for 40-50 loads before soaking again.

Smart Idea: Make large batches of soup then freeze in silicone muffin molds. Pop 'em out and wrap. Just reheat 2-3 pucks in a mug for a quick dinner.

TIP FOR KEEPING BERRIES FROM GOING MOLDY: When you get your berries home, prepare a mixture of one part vinegar (white or apple cider probably work best) and ten parts water. Dump the berries into the mixture and swirl around. Drain, rinse if you want (though the mixture is so diluted I find you can't taste the vinegar,) and pop in the fridge. The vinegar kills any mold spores and other bacteria that might be on the surface of the fruit, and voila! Raspberries will last a week or more, and strawberries go almost two weeks without getting moldy and soft.

Did you know that if you pull your bananas apart when you bring them home, they last longer? Did you know a pepper with 3 bumps on the bottom are sweeter and better for eating, and 4 bumps are firmer and better for cooking? Lots of interesting tips.
