We all have them............great cooking or cleaning tips. How to get chicken just right or that old stain out of clothes. Or how to shop for groceries or whatever. Well I really REALLY want to hear some of your famous tips on whatever. I will start. I've been obsessed with everything vintage lately, but to buy vintage fabrics it costs like $12-$18 a yard. So I went online to anthropologie.com and urbanoutfitters.com and looked in their sale section. I bought a couple of twin duvet covers of these cute vintage prints and figured I can cut them down for sewing fabric at now less than $3 a yard. Don't you love a good deal.

I'm the first, yay. Do you hate slicing apples for apple pie? First you have to peel all of them and then try to slice them evenly, its a pain right? It used to always take me so long, I hated it. Well I just learned a new way that is so ridiculously easy! Stand the apple up on the cutting board so the stem is up, then cut the core of the apple in a square. Now you have four pieces all with a flat side. Put the flat side down then thinly slice. Its kind of hard to explain but once you get it you'll never cut an apple any other way. :)

Something that I saw on HGTV and copied was I bought printed scrapbook paper from Roberts Craft and framed it. Each piece cost around 70 cents so it was pretty inexpensive for a cute picture for our guest bathroom and a group of three in our bedroom. They have so many cute designs you could use it for any room!
Peel a banana from the bottom and you won't have to pick the little "stringy things" off of it.
