Hello Everyone,

Washing your hands can strip them of natural moisture. To keep them hydrated, stash a bottle of cheap lotion next to the sink. After washing your hands and before you dry them, rub just a little lotion on your hands. Wait a few seconds and dry them. Your damp skin will soak in just the right amount of hydration, so your hands are left feeling so so so soft. This also works on your entire body, try it next time you step out of the shower before drying off.

p.s. don't forget to send in your questions and hints so I can feature them. Next week it's all about the readers :)



Hint 1: Who in the heck doesn't love corn on the cob for
summer cookouts? Mmmmm...

But taking off the husks can be a tiresome job, right? Well, try this easy way to get it done: cut off both ends of the ear of corn. Roll the ear on the counter, and the husk will come right off! Remove any threads of silk with a paper towel.


Hint 2: Don't own a heating pad? Don't sweat it, try this next time your muscles are sore.

Achy muscles? Try this easy trick. Fill an old sock with 1
cup of plain uncooked rice and tie a knot at the end. Heat
the sock for 30 seconds in the microwave and use the warmth
to stop your aches and pains.
