Home Tips
Wash the blender
Avoid those sharp blades by blending the device clean. Fill one-third full with water. Add three drops of dishwashing liquid. Run blender for 10 to 20 seconds. Rinse and dry.
Quick bread crumbs
Tear up leftover buns freeze in a zip bag. When ready for bread crumbs, don't bother thawing. Just pop the pieces in a food processor for 20 pulses.
Towels: Light or dark?
Light-colored towels fade less easily but dark colored towels effectively hide mascara marks. Just clean using a bleach spray and a dark towel since it might bleach the towel.
