Bleach gets rid of mold and foul odors better than anything I know of.

It is addictive in the sense that you need to keep using it else your lips will chap! I have experienced this many times. Use a lip balm - lovely lips Loose it, lips turn to pie. Lips get over having 'lip moisture' applied and start producing their own again.

My chap stick is like my safety blanket lol... If I'm uncomfortable in a situation and unsure of what to do about it... out comes the chap stick lol. It gives me something to do for a second or two instead of thinking about how uncomfortable I am.

Tips for extreme emergency medical situations (I seriously have used these on myself/horses and they have worked wonders! I am the queen of the ER, by the way )

To control bleeding: Out of Wonderdust??? Flour acts as a GREAT coagulant! Use flour to help temporarily clot a wound that is in a place where a turnicate cannot be applied (example: head injury ) Use lots and lots of it, and then put a cloth over and apply pressure.

Got a headache? Drink/eat something with caffine. Apples, tea, soda, coffee.... anything! The caffine increases the diameter of your blood vessels. Blood vessel constriction is what causes headaches to begin with.

Need severe pain releif in an absoulte emergency situation? DO NOT TAKE BUTE! This is terrible for your stomach. Instead, mix 1 cc Banamine wiht a glass of coke, etc. It will still taste terrible, but is safe for humans to use in that quantity.

Now for some normal ones:

White wine removes red wine stains. If you spill red wine on say, carpet, pour a little bit of white wine on top of it and BLOT it up. Another remedy is to COVER the area with table salt and let sit overnight. It will soak up all of the stain (this also works great with grape juice!)

Using water instead of milk to make scrambled eggs will make them lighter and fluffier.

Use extra-virgin olive oil or canola oil when cooking. This is waaaaay healthier for the body and reduces caloric intake.
