When you think about fresh lemons, limes, grapefruits and oranges, it seems these citrusy fruits would love bright sunlight. But if you have a bumper crop of citrus at home, keep them away from sunlight to extend the life of the perishables. On a tree, the fruit uses the sunlight to grow and ripen. Off the tree, sunlight can quickly deteriorate the fruit. Store citrus in a cool place, like a refrigerator, where many varieties can stay fresh for several weeks.

When it comes to three-ring binders, it seems the only choices at the office supply store are those made from plastic. These binders (and their matching plastic folders) are made from either PVC or polypropylene, which are difficult to recycle. When shopping for binders, consider searching for an alternative: aluminum. These durable, all-metal binders not only look good, but they are often made from recycled metal and are 100 percent recyclable. If you ever need to recycle it, just toss it into the recycling bin.

If you’ve collected a bunch of travel-size toiletries when you stay at hotels, you can either use them at home or give them to a good cause. The nonprofit Amenity Aid can use them for its important work to help people who are low-income, at-risk or homeless. The recipients love to use the new toiletries, including bar soap, shampoo, body wash, lotion, toothbrushes, razors and more. To donate, visit amenityaid.org.
