RE: Getting Rid Of Thick, Yellow Toe Nails
Use Tea Tree Oil every day. Just dab it on with a cotton ball. It will take a few months, but it worked for me. My doctor gave me this advice. ... View related article.

RE: White Trim On Hockey Jersey Turned Pink
A friend owns a dry cleaning business. Her solution is soak them in Biz and Wisk in cold water. When they are clean, wash them in Wisk with a box of salt in the water to set the color. Use ONLY cold water. It's worked on school uniforms.
Good Luck! ... View related article.

RE: Cereal Bar Recipe
We do a Saturday workshop for church. I end up making the dessert and we have diabetics. I don't have the recipe you are asking for, but here are a couple that people won't know are sugar free unless you tell them. I have more diabetic recipes. Email me if you want me to send them to you. jesij AT txol.net

Sugar Free Three Layer Chocolate Pie

1 stick oleo
1 cup flour
1 cup chopped pecans

1 cup Lite cool whip
1 cup Splenda
1 8oz low fat cream cheese

1 pkg sugar free vanilla pudding- instant
1 pkg sugar free chocolate pudding- instant (This is great with white chocolate & lemon pudding)
3 cups skim milk

Blend flour, melted oleo, & pecans. Press in a 13x9x2 inch pan or Pyrex.
Bake 20 minutes at 350. Let cool completely or crust will tear when putting the next mixture in it.
Blend Splenda, sotened cream cheese, and cool whip. Pour over cooled crust spreading evenly.
Combine puddings and milk until well blended. I use the mixer.
Pour over cream cheese mixture. Top with cool whip. I usually buy 2 cartons because after using a cup with the cr. cheese, it is not quite enough to cover good.
Sprinkle grated pecans on top. After chilled a short while, cut in squares.

Diet Pineapple Millionaire Pie

1 large instant sugar free vanilla pudding DRY
8 oz. low fat cream cheese
1 medium size can crushed pineapple (no sugar if you can find it) DO NOT DRAIN
1/4 cup skim milk
1 cup pecans pieces
1 large Lite Cool Whip

2 Low Fat Graham Cracker Crusts

Mix pudding, milk, softened cream cheese, and pineapple.
Stir in cool whip and pecans.
Pour into 2 graham cracker crusts
Needs to chill over night so they will set up good.

RE: Printable Homemade Bread Tags
You can always use business cards and personalize them on the computer. You can make a page all the same or each different. Just leave room at one end to use a hole punch to put the ribbon through to tie on the package. It is possible to print on both sides of the business cards, so you can put the recipe or serving suggestions on the back. At least the ingredients for some of the people with alergies. Hope this helps. ... View related article.

RE: Tote Bag Pattern Ideas
I'm not sure what you want. A tote bag to carry or an organizer to place between the mattress & springs for the residents to use? For the organizer, decide what size pockets they need (the size of puzzle books, paper backs, remote, their bible, glasses, writing tablet, pencils, etc.). Sew the pocket and leave about 8 inches at the top. Put a pocket across the top to slide a dowel rod in. The dowel rod can be inserted between the mattress and springs and let the pockets hang down the sides within reach of the residents. The pockets can be in a strip or you can make several different sizes so the organizer can be customized for each individual. They can also be slid off the dowel rod and laundered. These are handy for anyone confined to bed for any length of time. ... View related article.

RE: Uses for Cat Litter
I don't smoke and can't breathe around smoke. When my cousins come over and smoke on the porch, I have cans of cat litter sitting out for them to use as ash trays. It obsorbs the odors and quickly puts out the cigarette without the smell. Then just dump it in the outside dumpster. ... View related article.

Even the store brand ketchup will polish brass. Just use a soft cloth and polish it the same way you would use Brasso. ... View related article.

RE: Simple Dessert Ideas
Ice Cream in a Baggy
In a pint sized baggy combine:
1 cup milk
1/2 tsp. vanilla
3 Tbl. sugar
Zip it closed getting out as much air as possible.

Put the pint size baggy into a gallon baggy with:
1/3 bag of ice
1/4 cup salt on the ice.
Zip it closed and shake the baggy (the kids love this part) until the
ice cream is firm. Cut a corner off the small baggy and squeeze the ice
cream into a cup or bowl. Top with toppings of your choice.
