These mini metal marvels do more than keeping clothes together. It can also prevent static cling. To keep your skirt rom sticking to your tights or pantyhose, or your work pants from grabbing your silky socks, attach a small safety pin to the inside of your slip, skirt lining or the hem of your slacks. The metal is good conductor of electricity, so it will divert static away.

2. Buttons

Give the strays in your swing stash something fun to do. Are your bath towels all one color? To cut down on post-shower confusion (and unnecessary loads of laundry), sew a different colored button on the corner of each towel, then assign each family member a shade to use, a perfect way to I.D. towels.

3. Chopsticks

Sure they are perfect for kung pao chicken, but these handy utensils have loads of clever uses. One example is control portion. If you’re not as handy with chopsticks as you are with forks, switching to these utensils at meal time promotes slower eating and smaller bites. Research shows this gives your stomach time to send satiety signals to your brain, so you eat less in the long run.

4. Coffee Filters

When they are not holding grounds, these paper liners have other powers. It’s called keeping your crudités crisp. Slicing fresh veggies in bulk makes for easy snacking. The downside to that is that they can go soft faster than when whole. Hence, to keep them crunchy, store carrots and celery sticks in a container lined with coffee filters to help absorb moistures.

5. Spaghetti

These pasta strands can handle more than just dinner. They can make a great centerpiece as well. Just top your dinner table with a wheat-like decoration. Bundle a few pounds of dry spaghetti together with a rubber band, fan out the top and the bottom by twisting the ends clockwise, then knot a thick ribbon around the center.

I hope you find this post help. I would love to know about your ingenious hacks of household items. I look forward to seeing your feedbacks and comments.

CAUSES CLOSE TO MY HEART

PLEASE DONATE DIRECTLY TO THE ORGANIZATIONS THROUGH MY FUNDRAISING LINKS:

I consider myself fortunate to have good health, a full-time job, and a roof over my head. However, there are still so many people who are struggling to put food on their tables. Please join me to help those who are struggling. If you have good health, full-time jobs, and a roof over your head, please join me to help those who are struggling. Whether you donate $5 or $500, you will make a huge difference in someone’s life.

No Kid Hungry:

America’s kids need us. The coronavirus is closing schools nationwide, and millions of vulnerable children are losing the school meals they depend on. For some, it’s the only food they’ll receive on a given day. We have a plan to feed kids, but we need your help today to continue our work to ensure every kid gets three meals a day. You can click above to donate to my gofundme page donation going directly to the organization, or you can click on the direct link to the site.

Food Bank of Maryland:

PLEASE DONATE ANY AMOUNT YOU CAN AND SHARE THE POST WITH EVERYONE YOU KNOW.

Manna Food Center, a nonprofit organization, strives to eliminate hunger in Montgomery County through food distribution, education, and advocacy. Millions of children go to bed hungry in America every year, sadly it’s worse now! Today, 14 million children regularly miss meals — three times more than during the Great Recession and five times more than before the pandemic.

Many parents have lost their job during the pandemic. Sadly, that shows no sign of stopping. Your donation can bring relief to the millions worried about where their next meal will come from. It’s even worse for Latino and Black families, whose rates of nutrition insecurity have spiked to 25% and 30%. In the world’s wealthiest country, this is unconscionable.

Even before the pandemic, the U.S. Department of Agriculture estimated 37 million people in America struggled with hunger and nutrition. The Centers for Disease Control reports 76% of people killed by COVID-19 had at least one underlying condition, most of which were diet-related. Diet-related diseases also fuel skyrocketing health care costs, which rose from 5% to 28% of the federal budget in the past 50 years.

Let’s make the world better, kinder, brighter. Every dollar you give will create real change. $1 will feed 5 hungry children here in the US, but $1,000 will feed 50,000 starving children overseas. Be the good in the lives of many by giving right now.
