How do you know whether your TV remote control battery is dead or low? Use your phone's camera, which is sensitive to the wavelength emitted by the remote. Isn't that so interesting or what?

7. This Cooling Rack Idea

Who here loves to bake cookies? But let me ask you: do you have one of those fancy cooling racks? I don't, ha, ha! I had no idea you could use wooden skewers to create one. How neat is that?

8. This Stainless Steel Pot Cleaning Hack

My fiancé accidentally burned one of our stainless steel pots recently. He scrubbed the heck out of it, but it still has some dark parts. Luckily, I found out that rubbing lemon and thyme will get it all out. Nice.

Who here loves scrambled eggs? Oh, yes. That is one of my favorite lunch options, indeed. But if you want to mix them fast use a shaker bottle instead of a bowl. I actually haven't thought of that.

14. This Pizza Sandwich Idea

Speaking of yummy foods, how would you fancy a pizza sandwich? That sounds so good to me right about now. So next time you have two leftover slices, make a sandwich out of them. I like that.
