RE: Recipes Using Cake Mix
Here's two I've used for years:

Chewy Cookies
cake mix - your choice
2 eggs
1/3 c. oil
1/4 c. flour
Stir together to form dough. Spoon out onto cookie sheets. Bake at 350, 10-12 mins. Use your imagination to add nuts, coconut, chocolate chips, etc.

Easy Cookies
1 chocolate cake mix
1 large egg
1/2 (8 oz) container cool whip or other whipped topping
1 c. chopped pecans or other nuts
powdered sugar
Combine the first three ingredients - stir well (batter will be sticky). Stir in nuts. Dust hands with powdered sugar and shape dough into small balls. Roll in powdered sugar and put 2 " apart on ungreased sheet. Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes. Cool on wire racks.
BTW where did you get so many cake mixes?

RE: School Fundraising Ideas
How about a penny bomb? Each of the team members can have a jar with their name and their friends, neighbors, family, etc can donate their extra pennies. We were very successful at this one, even the staff and faculty donated. ... View related article.

RE: Repelling Hornets, Bumblebees and Wasps
If you are having problems around your house or deck I have a sure trick to keep them away. Blow up a small paper bag, (lunch size works perfect) tie it with string and hang it from your rafters. Works perfectly. For some reason, they will stay away. ... View related article.

RE: Packing Suits When Moving
The best luck we've had is with one of those hanger boxes that you get from the mover or at a box store. They are expensive but you can sell them when you no longer need them. We tried packing them with the dry cleaner bags around them and it worked pretty good. But the box was so much better. ... View related article.

RE: Alternatives to Ridx
Last time ours was pumped out, the guy told us to flush a carton of cottage cheese. He said that would get everything started back up. I have a friend that swears by using yeast (baking yeast) -- she buys the pound bag at Sam's and flushes 1/4 cup once every month or so.
We've lived with septic systems for years and never had any problems. Just watch how much bleach we use (not too much at any time) and moderate the amount of stuff we put in our sink garbage disposal. ... View related article.

RE: Growing Hair Back Quickly After Chemo
I have been doing chemo for 3 years.........one tip I got from a nurse was to take the herb horsetail - I get it online called "vegetal silica" - it has helped my hair get rid of that straw feeling and also my skin isn't so dry. Plus it grows so fast! You have to look around though because some that I bought was worthless so quality counts.
Just know that it will grow back and you will get your life back!
