DOUBLE-DUTY HOUSEHOLD ITEMS for a SIMPLE LIFE

Welcome to Karina's Simple Solutions for Everyday Life!

NEW USES FOR OLD THINGS

Old Thing: Mellon Baller

New Use: De-Seeder

The original purpose of the Mellon Baller was to carve melons (such as cantaloupes, honey dew melons, etc.) .

Karina's New Use: Scooping out of tomato seeds. This tiny little tool is the perfect size and shape for removing the squishy-seedie part.

REWARD: A better bruschetta.

Enjoy and Happy Recycling!

Don't throw away those Glass Jars!

You know the glass jars like photoed above? Don't throw them out.....

When done using I just soak them ~ in order to get the label off ~ and use them for drinking glasses for our family! I have also used them in canning my own homemade tomato sauce, by keeping the lid that goes to each jar.

They work great and I haven't bought drinking glasses in over 2 years!

Hope you enjoyed this tip!

Happy Recycling,

KARINA'S DAILY TIP

Welcome to Karina's Daily Tip:

"Re-use those plastic food containers!"
One thing I do not enjoy doing is opening up those shredded cheese bags and crouton bags and never being able to reseal them! (only cause the kids rip um open)!
Know what I mean :-0)

So, I finally got smart! I have started to keep my Kraft grated parmesan cheese ~plastic containers with the green snap lid. Airtight I might add!

I washed them out, and now I have containers to hold my cheese, croutons, sliced almonds, bacon bits, and much more! At mealtime, it is easy as 1-2-3 to set them on the table...especially on taco and/or salad night."

Happy Recylcing!
