Lunchbox Cupboard: the kids pack their lunches... pick one from each drawer (fruit, granola bars, snacks, desserts, drinks) The parent chooses what goes in the drawer, but the child learns to make their own choice of what to eat.
Clothes keep slipping off plastic hangers? Use a hot glue gun to apply a zig zag pattern on the arms of your plastic hangers to prevent all your wide-necked shirts from falling off. Works like a charm!
No more mosquitos!! Cut the top (just before the start of the cone) off a 2 liter bottle. Invert the cone and place it inside the straight part of the bottle. Glue the two pieces together, using a glue or silicon. Add 1 tsp yeast and 1/2 cup sugar to some luke warm water, and pour the mixture into the bottle. Mosquitoes are attracted to the carbon dioxide that you exhale. The yeast feeds off the sugar and emits the same gas, so the mosquito enters the bottle, thinking she will find food there.

Heat a bowl of water and vinegar for 5 minutes in the microwave. The steam will get rid of stains and then you simply wipe it off.

Just in case I need this someday... This dear woman has done the research for me. Why I LOVE Pinterest. :)
to get rid of the nasty black gunk in your drain: 1. Put a pot of water to boil. 2. Meanwhile pour baking soda down the drain. Baking soda has the ability to neutralize fatty acids so it will work and eating away the grime while you are waiting for the water to boil. 3. Once the water has reached a rolling boil remove it from the stove and pour it down the drain. 4. Let the water and baking soda work at decomposing and sterilizing the grime for 10 minutes. 5. After 10 minutes has expired pour 1 cup of bleach down the drain to completely kill any remaining mildew or bacteria.

Parenting: Why French Parents are Superior by Pamela Druckerman, wsj: 1. Children should say hello, goodbye, thank you and please. It helps them to learn that they aren't the only ones with feelings and needs. 2. When they misbehave, give them the "big eyes"—a stern look of admonishment. 3. Allow only one snack a day. In France, it's at 4 or 4:30. Remind them (and yourself) who's the boss. 4. French parents say, "It's me who decides." 5. Don't be afraid to say "no." Kids have to learn how to cope with some frustration. - Seems like just plain common sense/survival for parents everywhere. #Parenting #WSJ #French_Parents #Pamela_Druckerman
