  • Perfect Proportions:  Three ounces of meat or fish is roughly equal to the size of your palm.  Medium-sized fruit is the size of your fist.  1/2 cup of rice is the size on my hand-fingers closed.

  • Glow N Tint - table centerpiece: Springtime centerpiece:  Fill a glass bowl with colored water (use food coloring), Rest a pillar candle in the center and add some flowers floating on the colored water.

  • Keep Candles Steady:  Rub the bottom of a taper candle with a glue stick.  This will hold the candle in place.

  • Smooth Away Summer Blackheads:  Pulse a handful of Parsley in a blender until it forms a paste.  Boil water and pour into a large bowl.  apply the paste to blackhead prone areas, then hold your face over the bowl.  The Parsley, a natural humectants, and the steam team up to soften skin and loosen any blackheads.

  • Shine Pots and Pans without scrubbing - Aluminum cookware. add 2 to 4 tablespoons of cream of tartar to 1 to 2 quarts of water and boil for 5  to 10 minutes.  Rinse, scour lightly with a steel-wool soap pad and rinse again.
