Make Life Easier

My mother in law sent me this email months ago with tips to make some random things in life a little easier.  I got sick of saving the email but I wanted to remember the tips by storing them here instead. (PS I am "on pinterest" but I don't really get it yet and I was cleaning out my emails; feel free to steal these and put them on there if you want).

 Nylons over vacuum hose to find earrings
 X's cut in a box lip for cupcake transportation
 Folding a fitted sheet (I already knew this one, thanks grandma)
 Stop cut apples from browning when you take it to go
 Bake cookie dough over the bottom of a muffin tin for cookie bowls
 Freeze aloe vera in ice-cube tray for sunburn relief
 Storing Christmas ornaments
 Hulling strawberries with a straw
 Amplify your ipod by setting it in a bowl while you play music
 Baby powder gets sand off easily at the beach
Run 2 wires at the top of a closet to store wrapping paper

I saw this on Pinterest. Have you joined yet? You can "pin" it to reference back to it later. Addicting. And oh so much fun.
