We know the benefits of having live houseplants in the home because they help absorb toxins and release fresh oxygen back into the air. But for many of us, houseplants can be hard to maintain or keep alive. Even though houseplants look great on top of bookshelves or in guest bedrooms, they aren't readily accessible or are in easily forgotten rooms. One tip is to keep them in areas that are accessible and easy to water: in a bathroom or kitchen are good places.

Break the habit of using the refrigerator's egg holder compartments and instead keep the eggs in their carton. Eggshells are porous, which means they release moisture quickly if left unprotected, causing them to lose their freshness. To extend the shelf life of fresh eggs, simply keep them in their container.

Milk is a food staple that every member of the family grabs and uses throughout the day. So make it a new habit to keep the carton of milk in the back of the fridge, not in the front or side shelves. By constantly bringing the carton of milk in and out of the fridge, it fluctuates the temperature, which can cause it to spoil. Leaving it in the back of the fridge helps it readjust to a cooler temperature more quickly, keeping it fresh.
