  1. Vinegar keeps a boiling egg intact.

  8. Use peanut butter on kids who get gum stuck in their hair.
  9. Polish copper with ketchup.
  10. Keep a roll of duct tape and nylon zip-ties both in your car and house. Too many uses to mention here but research them and you’ll thank me.
  11. Keep a pair of women’s pantyhose in your car. If one of your belts break you can tie it in its place to get you to the next stop.
  12. If your check engine light comes on in your car; check the gas cap and make sure it is clicked.
