Post life hacks that you actually use.

27. I have a few

1) If you only use half of an avocado, you çan store the other half in a glass of water in the fridge to keep it from turning brown.

2) To test the freshness of an egg, put it in a bowl of water. The freshest eggs will sink to the bottom, laying on their sides. Less fresh but still usable eggs will sit on the bottom upright or tilted to the side. (These are good for hard boiled eggs.) If an egg floats without touching the bottom, it's gone bad.

3) You really don't need cook lasagna noodles before you assemble the lasagna in the pan. Just add water to your sauce, making it runny instead of thick. The excess water will be absorbed while baking, cooking the noodles.

4) If your shower head is clogged, fill a plastic bag with white vinegar and rubber band it on to the shower head. Leave it overnight and any calcium deposits clogging the shower head should be dissolved.

5) Place a wooden spoon over a boiling pot of water to keep it from boiling over.

6) To slow the ripening of bananas, wrap the stems in plastic wrap. I usually just use the plastic produce bag from the store. Then just cut off the bananas when you want to use them.

7) Wall calendars don't have enough room to write stuff in the daily boxes? Use Post-Its! While desktop planners and calendars on my smart phone are great, I like to have sonething on the wall that's IN MY FACE! It's especially good for chores or appointments you have on a weekly or monthly basis, because you can reuse the Post-Its. They're also good for breaking a big project down to smaller pieces. When you do the task, you can move the Post-It to your "Done it" wall to remind you of your accomplishment. There are actually a lot of good ideas on the Post-It website.
