~ Before freezing fresh bagels cut them in half; they will defrost faster and can be toasted while still frozen.
~ When you are packaging
~ After making pies or pastry buns, sprinkle the counter with salt; it will clean up easily.
~ Old sponges cut into squares work great for covering drainage holes in flowerpots.
Here is one that I personally found quite icky ~ wash your face and brush your teeth while you're in the shower. Okay I get the face washing, but I really find the thought of teeth brushing in the shower quite gross!!!

Sorry - I'm not buying Emile's book. Cutting the bagels before freezing dries them out faster, I buy my beef in tubes from the local meat market just down the road, I have this nifty blade thing that I bought years ago that takes the dough goo right off the counter, I don't use kitchen sponges and brushing your teeth in the shower wastes water.
Thanks for sharing this, though, now I know that's not the book for me. :-)
rofl ~ that is why I highly recommend using your local library!!!
Hi Lounge Sisters,
Libraries are wonderful things! Laurie, I think you need to revamp Emilie's book!
And wasting water or not, I am with you, Shawtele, no brushing teeth in the shower - ick!
