Origami Paper Trees
Remove Stains from Plastic Cutting Boards
I need to do this – mine is clean, but looks yucky!

You’ll need: 3-4 tablespoons of baking soda, 1 tablespoon of dish detergent, and 1-2 tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide.
Spicy Lemon Salt
Make a double batch and keep one for yourself and give one as a quick, inexpensive gift!

For spicy lemon salt: combine 1/4 cup of coarse salt, 3/4 teaspoons chili flakes and 1 tablespoon dried lemon zest. Grind it together until you are happy with the texture and fill it into an 80ml glass jar.
