Using tinfoil for your dryer and doing push-ups during dinner prep!

Today is the day you will take kitchen duties to the next level.

1. Let’s take tinfoil first. Squash up tinfoil into a ball and chuck it into your dryer with the wet clothes. Shazam static-free life! Those polyester easy-to-wear tops will never cling to your love handles again, we promise.

2. Pour leftover wine into an ice cube tray and use it for cooking. Casserole Friday here I come.

3. Tomato paste can be squeezed out of the tube into a sandwich bag for freezing. When you need it for a select dish break off a chunk and pop it in.

4. Eggs about to go stale? Crack open those bad boys and put them into freezer bags. Just defrost your eggs when you need them.

5. Use the rapid wash setting on your washing machine pretty much always. Hello free-time where have you been?

6. The “Kitchen Counter Saving-plan“. You start at week 1. You put in a few euro into the vessel of your choice. On week 2 you insert a few more and so on. By week 52, you have an awesome holiday fund!

7. Never buy spring onions or celery ever again! Pop the root of the celery or bulb of the onion into water and watch them grow like magic. OK maybe not that fast but, they grow. Change the water once a week.

8. Try to keep fitness to the front of your domestic mind. When boiling the pasta do some push-ups. Even repetitions of 5 against the kitchen counter for that period can build a little muscle #fact

9. When peeling onions, just substitute your knife for a potato peeler. Achieve the thinnest slices for tomorrow’s salad #genius

10. After a long day put two dessert spoons into the fridge. When you eventually decide to hit the hay, take them out, pop into bed, place over your eye sockets and simply breathe the day away…
