my little sharing spot...enjoy!
Do you know how many swears have flown out of my mouth over the years when I have taped off door handles??? Well, now I can save those obscenities for something else. Aluminum foil to cover them…genius! I will be painting my exterior doors in glossy black on Sunday. I really know how to party on the weekends, don’t I? Head on over to Real Simple to visit a few more ways aluminum foil can rock your world.

I love the look and scent of lemons. Sometimes I keep them (or limes,oranges) on my counter, and it actually makes the room a little more cheery. Today will be all about LEMONS and YELLOW.
Real Simple gives some useful ways to use lemons. Such as, a laundry brightener, sore throat soother, and a cutting board cleaner. Check out the video Ways to use lemons

I am a fan. My husband is not. I saw a little article on Real Simple about dill and it made me think about how much I love it.
Here is what I learned.
Wrap the herb in a slightly damp paper towel and store it inside a sealed plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to 2 days; the delicate fronds wilt quickly after being picked. Just before using, wash the dill and blot it dry with a paper towel. The herb loses its flavor when heated, so either add it at the very end of cooking or use it as a garnish.
