If your handheld GPS, digital camera or other electronic device gets a
surprise soaking, try placing it in a resealable bag full of dry,
uncooked rice for 24 hours. Often, the rice will absorb the moisture without
the need for damaging heat.

		<description><![CDATA[Key Protection
Ladies, when you are out running errands, shopping, walking, etc.,
always wear clothing with pockets. Always keep your house and car keys in
your pockets, not your purse. If someone snatches your purse, at least
you can drive your car and get into your home because you still have
your keys.
This tip was put to the test when [...]]]></description>

With milk being so expensive, we were having a rough time keeping it in
the house with my five children, but we were getting plenty of instant
milk from the food pantry. So with a little experimentation, I found
that I can follow the instant milk recipe to make 1/2 gallon milk and
then add 1/2 gallon of [...]]]></description>

Plastic wrap or cling wrap often gets wasted as it tears apart or
sticks together. A simple solution that I found is to keep it in the
freezer. It pulls apart easily with no more wasted wrap.

We refaced our kitchen cabinets last year. We bought cabinet grade wood
at a lumber store, cut it to the sizes we needed for the cabinet doors
and stained it. It looked like a totally new kitchen! It cost a
fraction of the price of getting new cabinets since we were able to do the
work ourselves. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Moist Slow Cooker Meals
When you are cooking with a slow cooker, remember that cheaper cuts of
meat do much better (such as chuck roasts or chuck steaks). Very lean
cuts of beef come out very dry. Chicken legs or thighs generally will
give a more moist end result than chicken breast. If you do use chicken
breast, use the [...]]]></description>

On the subject of freezer efficiency, I like the idea of marking frozen
food with the date by which it should be consumed versus the date it
was put into the freezer. Isn&#8217;t it easier to see a package marked with
next week&#8217;s date on it and know it&#8217;s &#8220;time&#8221; to plan a particular meal?
