Do your hands smell like onions or garlic after you’ve cooked up a storm in the kitchen? While it can seem like no amount of handwashing can get rid of the smell, one kitchen condiment can work wonders: mustard. Grab a jar of the yellow stuff from the fridge or open a packet from the junk drawer and rub on your hands. It works for two reasons: The vinegar in mustard helps break down smells, and the mustard seed itself is a rubefacient, which means it causes dilation of capillaries when it comes in contact with skin. This combination makes mustard a naturally amazing deodorizer.

Here’s a reason to start saving empty milk and juice cartons (and ask your neighbors and friends to save for you!) a few weeks before you move: They can help protect your fragile items. Just insert breakable items like glassware into the cartons. Gallon-size containers can hold larger items and quart sizes can hold thinner items like drinkware or vases. Insert, pinch closed and voila! A protected possession ready for the journey to its new home.

Here’s an easy way to help improve fuel economy and protect your automobile investment: Know exactly what type of motor oil your car uses. When the manufacturer made your car, they did tests to see what types of motor oil deliver the best performance. Using a motor oil that has not been tested on your car could lead to friction and poorer fuel economy, and it can also cause damage to the interior components of your car. Check the owner’s manual and stick to what your automaker recommends.
