I just came across a great new site

[The empressof all]

For me anyway

Tipnut.com

All kinds of home remedies, household and cooking tips. Some are really great like using the toilet paper rolls cut in half and folded up a bit as pots for seed germinatin. :wow: Now I'm gonna start saving the toilet paper rolls! I love stuff like this and I know many of you all here do too....So just wanted to share.

Oh and great recipes too like Cranberry Liquor!

Ingredients:

1 lb cranberries (fresh, washed, chopped)
1 1/2 cups vodka
1 1/2 cups simple syrup (see below)
1/2 orange peel (grated)
1/4 lemon peel (grated)

Directions:

Combine all ingredients into a large sterilized jar, topping with the hot simple syrup last. Shake or stir well, then seal.
Allow to steep for 5 weeks, shake or turn jar over each day. Strain & Serve.

1. I'm soooo gonna try this! Thanks for the link and the recipe.

I'm on a big cranberry kick lately.

2. I usually laugh at these sites,

since I'm hardly the Happy Homemaker of their target audience - although I did win the BettyCrocker Homemaker of Tomorrow in my Senior year in high school (I still have the pin).

But this one is pretty cool. I just found the "mayonnaise on the outside of grilled cheese sandwiches" idea, and it sounds very nice.

Thank you.....................
