HANDY HINTS TO SAVE YOU MONEY ...

ULCERS
The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicle cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach. 
VARNISHED FLOORS
Clean with cold tea to enhance the colour of the wood.
VASES
To clean a vase, fill it with water and drop in two Alka Seltzer tablets.  Leave for a couple of minutes, then rinse and dry.
VEGETABLES
1.     Place a clean, dry sponge in the vegetable drawer in the fridge.  The sponge will absorb the
        moisture and the vegetables and salad ingredients will stay fresh for longer.
2.     To prevent vegetables from boiling over whilst cooking, lightly grease the inside of the
​        saucepan rim.
