to share this INSANE life hack!!!!

[Tunotips]

Just leave the tin like that for a few minutes and then it’s ready to use.

what’s your favorite insane life hack? Post below!!!!!
(but please no fucking boring tips)

and I have n/c for this bc I don’t want anyone tracking me down via my sink

Theeee best tip I ever read was put to stick your Quality Street wrappers around your computer monitor in work for some quick and easy Christmas decorations. Take a Break had the best tips ever, and there was even a photo of someone's computer screen framed with someone's scrunched up sweet wrappers.

Oooh I have actually thought about this some more.
Next time I boil the kettle for a brew I am going to pour any left over hot water into a ice cube tray and frezze it , then next time I want a brew I can just pop a cube in my cup . PRESTO ! A hot drink .
You can all thank me later 🤣

That reminds me of a woman who wrote in once with this tip: place empty jars around your home filled with water and different food colourings to brighten up your home.

There was a photo of all these random jars on shelves with red, blue and green water in, and all I could think of was them being knocked over and staining carpet and soft furnishings.

Apparently all those cheapo magazines are ran by 20 somethings straight out of uni. I think they liked to publish some of the more bonkers tips to for their own amusement.

I can believe that. There was an excellent kitchen stuff shop where I live and they used to hand out a little magazine with all the latest offerings. It was filled with absolute tat that no one in their right mind would buy. The shop itself was managed by a sensible older woman and I asked her one day if the marketing department were all 20-something women and she said yes, they were. I've wondered if those dreadful magazines were partly the reason the company failed.

Where did you get this idea from? Of course sealant is used in Spain.

Nope , not true.

However boiled water does frezze* *quicker ( but I can't remember why 🤔)

They keep longer, I've a few that must be a month or more old and I recently used a couple of lurking carrots that had a June date on them. In the hot weather I've also taken to putting the bread in the fridge to keep it, being on my own now a loaf can last me weeks and, yes, I know I could by a small loaf but it's economy of scale!

Well that was a let down

Oh, I'm such a dodo; I've since woken up properly, and now get the IG post! 🤦‍♀️🤣

No, that’s the point 🤦‍♀️

The one that the "local mom" discovered?

I suspect from your post you are more serious of nature and may not immediately hook on to a pisstaker. It was clear as day to some of us.

This didn’t work for me. Weighing myself with the cat was fine but the cat wouldn’t stay still long enough on the scales to get weighed so I still don’t know my weight 😥

😝

This would be brilliant at a party for someone you weren't crazy about - maybe an unwanted plus one. Watch them being confused about why their previously nice drink now tastes off.

Brilliant. We've had a large jar of sliced beetroot in the cupboard that we couldn't get the lid off with either a jar opening gadget or holding the lid with a rubber gripping aid. Using a bottle opener to break the seal worked perfectly.

Also find jars of Bonne Maman jam hard to open, so we'll try your tip on these.

Thank you!

Are you Jack Monroe?

Is that you Julie?

The Guru of dangerous shit food and cooking 'hacks'

"Hack the top off your tin with a rusty saw if you don't have a tin opener. Rinse the sauce off of your beans / spaghetti hoops, then ignore the rest of the instructions it will taste shit anyway as you rush off to hospital with your severed fingers in a zip lock bag"

There is a complementary therapy centre near me that used to distribute a newsletter to nearby homes full of articles by their therapists, some sounding reasonably sane, some not. Highlight of my week when this arrived. The most batshit entry I ever remember (from a crowded field) was the 'therapist' who charged some exorbitant sum to mugs people who would then spend their appointment admiring her collection of little jars filled with coloured liquid and talking about how they made them feel. At the end of the appointment they got to take one or two home with them. I suppose you might have got a useful jar or two out of it.

All, and I do mean all, ingredients are interchangeable.

My thoughts exactly 😂😂 News flash you can do this in the sink too so it's not dribbled all down the side...
