If you have old multivitamins that are expired or have gone bad in your cabinet, don’t toss them down the drain. Simply dilute them in water and give your vegetable or flower garden some vitamin-infused H2O. Plants love the nutritional boost vitamins give them, and you’ll end up with higher yields of heartier and healthier fruits, vegetables or flowers. Some vitamins -- like vitamins A and E -- are tougher to dissolve and might need hot water to break down; be sure to let the water cool completely before giving your plants some vita-love.

Every morning, there’s one more thing you should bring into the shower with you: your reusable water bottle. Water bottles should be washed after each use, and one easy way to save water and time is to simply wash it in the shower. To disinfect the bottle, you need hot water and a little bit of soap. Just put a small amount of dish soap in the bottle and then fill it up with hot water from the showerhead. Shake, rinse and shower yourself off. Then let the bottle air-dry before using it again. It’s that simple!

Is glossy paper recyclable? We’ve been told that shiny paper should never be put in the recycling bin, but glossy paper in magazines is totally recyclable. So what’s the deal? Generally, how coated the paper is determines its recyclability. Normal glossy paper like magazines and junk mail can be recycled. But gift wrap -- which is often mixed with foil and nonpaper material -- is the tricky one. Generally, if you crumple up paper and it stays crumpled, it’s recyclable; if it doesn’t, toss it in the trash. Paper can be recycled up to seven times before the fibers lose strength, so recycle whenever possible.
