Mrs. Fixit: Timesavers

April 7, 2012

I have some ideas to save you valuable time in your day so you have more time for all of those important things in your life.

If you love making homemade cookies for your family, but never seem to have the time, make a double batch the next time. Cook half and then place the second half on cookie sheets in cookie form and pop them in the freezer.

Once they're frozen, pop them in a plastic zipper bag in the freezer and you'll have cookies ready to go when you are -- no mess, no prep time at all!

When you have a favorite recipe that requires time consuming chopping, chop twice as much as you need and freeze the excess. You'll save yourself all of that chopping the next time you make it.

Wash your shower while you're in there! The steam from the shower will loosen dirt and soap scum. It's easier to reach all of the areas and the shower spray will rinse everything clean when you're done!

Make a list for shopping, the list will keep you on task and help you get the job done faster, whenever possible, shop alone and you will be more focused and get the job done in half the time!

A few little shortcuts here and there can really pay off in the end! I'm Mrs Fixit and it's just that simple!
