Aluminum Foil
to avoid the hassle of fitting aluminum foil into the corners of baking pans, just rinse the pans before lining. The foil will cling to the wet bottom and sides and will be easier to smooth into corners.<\/p>\n
Glasses
when one glass is stuck inside another, do not force them apart. Fill the top glass with cold water and dip the lower one in hot water. They will come apart without breaking.<\/p>\n
To loosen stuck glasses, let a few drops of glycerin trickle down between the two glasses.<\/p>\n
Scratches on glassware will disappear if polished with toothpaste.<\/p>\n
Mayonnaise

Toss with your salad.<\/p>\n
Remove Rust from Tools<\/p>\n
Here's a sharp idea: remove rust from household tools by using a paste of Salt and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Apply the paste to rusted area with a dry cloth and rub.<\/p>\n
Dishwasher – Cleaning and Removing Odours<\/p>\n
The easiest way that I've heard of to freshen a dishwasher (or a garbage disposal, etc) is to just use some baking soda. Put that in your dishwasher and run it empty and the smells should be gone. The same goes for the garbage disposal. All you need to do is run hot water for a minute or so, dump some baking soda down and run the disposal.<\/p>\n
Put some boric powder in kitchen in corners and other places.
Cockroaches will leave your house.<\/p>\n
To 5 kg basmati rice of cheaper quality add 1 kg of superior quality and sprinkle a little oil and mix well with your hand. Store in airtight container for 6 months. All the rice will now taste like the superior quality one.<\/p>\n
Chop an onion finely and add a tbsp of sugar and a small piece of ginger to it and mix well and leave overnight. The syrup that collects in the morning is a safe and effective cough mixture for small children.<\/p>\n
A little lemon juice and a spoonful of ginger juice in a bottle of soda help relieve indigestion<\/p>\n
To clean cast iron cookware, don't use detergents. Just scrub them with salt and a clean, dry paper towel.<\/p>\n
A cotton ball soaked in white vinegar and applied to a fresh bruise will reduce the darkness of the bruise and help it disappear sooner.<\/p>\n
Apple cider vinegar is something everyone in the house should be taking. Aids digestion, helps sinus, asthma, flu suffers breath easier, stabilizes and controls weight, flushes harmful toxins and crystals from joints, tissues and organs. As a hair rinse, removes soap residue and prevents dry, itching scalp. Prevents blistering and maintains healthy skin. And if that isn't enough it also gives one a feeling of well being. I take it once or twice a day: 1 or 2 teaspoons in a glass of water, before meals is excellent.<\/p>\n
Alleviate oven cleaner smells – reduce the unpleasant smell left from oven cleaners by baking some citrus peelings on a low heat.<\/p>\n
