Doing some home improvement work this weekend? When painting walls, make sure you buy just enough paint. Go to popular home improvement Web sites like Lowes.com and search for "paint calculator." Type in the dimensions of your room, and it'll compute exactly how much paint you need to buy. No more overbuying and a lot less waste.

Did you know aluminum foil is recyclable? After you're done baking a casserole in the oven, just peel off the aluminum and crumble it up into a ball. If it's coated with last night's dinner, a quick rinse under the sink should remove any leftovers. Toss it in the curbside recycling bin for pickup.

Trash to Treasure: Remember that large terra cotta saucer that once was the base of a now-dead houseplant? Well, rescue it from the garage and give it a second life. Give it a good scrub and place all your cooking essentials on top of it: olive oil, vinegars, salt, spices and more. Keep it by the stove for quick access when you're cooking up a storm. The terra cotta will keep everything organized and will serve as a barrier between your countertops and messy spills.
