Did you know that if you are out of rubbing alcohol and are in a pinch, you can use VODKA

I had to apply my new license Plate expiry tag and needed to clean my plate first. Totally worked

I think any liquor would work. I've seen them do it a bunch of times in movies. They pour rum or whiskey or whatever they have over their bullet wounds.

Mustard is supposed to work on bug bites/stings.

You can use lemon juice to reallly shine any stainless steel.

Raw pasta makes a great necklace.

And a great tambourine when put between paper plates.

Oh yeah and paper art too. lol

Lucky you! I also had 4 babies and my 1st gave me tons of stretch marks...although I gained 57lbs with that pregnancy.

Jealous!

Although they say to look to your mother...if she had/hadn't have stretch marks then you will/won't have them.

Are you done having babies?

You can use clove oil for a toothache...or even some whiskey.

Straying off topic for a second...
This is not use of a food, but I wanted to share anyways. You can use Preparation H under your eyes to take away the puffiness-really works, and they say models use it on their arms so they don't look like they're 'waving'. OK, sorry, back to topic.

very true. Even dentists use the clove oil.

Ahis_Mama · 10-24-2011, 04:44 PM

When you smoke clove ciggs. they make your mouth a little numb..so the clove oil thing makes sense.

We also use hawaiian salt mixed with warm water to help ease a toothache. When our kids lose a tooth we also make them rinse their mouth with this mixture.

Oh yeah egg shells and oyster shells for the garden also.

If you get a splinter, rub some garlic on it -- the splinter will almost pull itself out. In the old days, carpenters used to always carry garlic in their pouches for this reason.

lol not sure if that was the brand or what but I tried it when I was a teen. (An adult gave it to me

) LOL

At least I didn't get hooked on it.

It actually was pretty good. Brown little looking cigars. I am proud to say that I have been smoke free for almost 15 years! Went from 2 packs a day to quitting cold turkey.

Really? How does that work? I wonder if it would work with metal splinters. I get those a lot.
