Your Teenager dropped their cell phone in the what?

If your teenager  has dropped their cell phone in water or toilet and it won’t work ,  remove the battery and put the rest of the phone in a bowl of dry rice for an hour or even a month. I have a Teenager who is notorious for dropping their phone in the toilet.  After the purchase of a smart phone, and the destruction of an iphone, I stumbled across this tip from my friend Peggy from church.  I bought another Iphone for the teenager for christmas from another friend for only $50.00 which the teenager has paid us back for the other phones.

Eggs ~ How to clean them up off of the floor :0)

 Today while making my little boy some scrambled eggs, I accidently dropped an egg onto the floor.  I asked my daughter to please hand me the box of Kosher salt.  She looked at me like I was crazy, but handed me the salt as asked.   I proceeded to open up the salt and pour it onto the egg on the floor, I covered the entire egg with salt almost 1/2 inch thick.  I told her to just ignore the egg for a while.  One half hour later I asked her to bring me the broom and dust pan.  She looked at me again as if I was crazy but brought it to me anyway.

Drain unclogger

So your sink is not draining the way you would like it to? Try this.

1/2 C White Vinegar
1/4 C Baking soda
Cover the drain and let the chemistry do its work. Follow by Boiling water.

Now, if this does not work, you may need to snake your drain, use a draino type product, or ask you husband to undo the plumbing and see what is stuck.
