Handy Hints
Hi Everyone,

I read a quick insert in one of my magazines about letting your food cool down before placing the leftovers in the refrigerator. Read below:

According to Peter Snyder, PH.D., a food safety consultant in Minnesota says letting hot foods cool uncovered for 30 minutes before putting them away is actually safer than rushing them into the refrigerator. Here's why: Immediately refrigerating hot dishes can actually cause harmful bacteria to multiply. That's because it takes longer for the temperature in the middle of a container to drop. And the cold exterior combined with a hot interior creates a warm, moist environment where bacteria thrive, he says.

Be Handy,
Holly

Hint #1: What's your tweezing trick?

Tweezing tip for all you lovely ladies out there...Next time it's time to pluck those few stray hairs do it right after you've gotten out of the shower. While you've bathed, the steam has opened up your pores - which makes it easier for your hair to slide out while you pluck away.


Hint #2:
Perfecto!

If you have to paint small scratches on the wall or furniture,
use a cotton swab instead of a paintbrush. There's no wasted paint and no clean up - just throw away the swab.
