EASY LIFE TIPS

AN ICE COLD DRINK

If you need your drink cold asap, wrap a wet paper towel around

it and stick it in the freezer. This will cool your drink much

faster (just don’t forget it is there).

WHEN YOUR HEADPHONES KEEP SLIPPING OUT

If your headphones keep slipping out, try wrapping them

around your ear.

CROSSING OUT WORDS

If you cross out words with horizontal lines, they might be

still legible. Instead, cross them out with letters.

SANITIZING A SPONGE

An easy way to kill the germs in your sponge is to put the

sponge in the microwave for a few minutes.

UNTYING A KNOT

The trick to untying a knot is to twist the loose end as much as

you can and to push it through the knot. It works with

most material from ropes to plastics.

PEELING POTATOES

Did you know you can actually peel potatoes without the peeler?

Boil the potatoes and then give them a quick ice bath.

The skin will separate from the potato and you can simply pick it off.

MICROWAVING MEALS

To avoid sizzling edges and an ice cold middle when reheating

your meal in a microwave, distribute the meal in the shape

of a doughnut (with a void in the centre).

DRINKING POP FROM A CAN

Use the hole in the metal tab as a holder for your straw.

Just put the straw through the tab and enjoy your pop.

EATING CHICKEN WINGS

To get the best out of chicken wings, pull off the cartilage

on the wider end and get rid of the bones instead of

just nibbling meat off the bones.
