The average American household throws away hundreds of dollars of food every year because it spoils before it can be consumed. One way to curb food waste (and save money!) is to look beyond fresh vegetables and consider frozen instead. Frozen vegetables are picked at peak perfection and flash-frozen. And because you can portion out exactly how much you need, the lifespan of frozen vegetables is significantly longer than fresh. Plus, certified organic varieties are easy to find now, which makes frozen both economical and ecological.

Whether it’s for Halloween, a school play or just play time at home, avoid the temptation to use face paints that you find at costume supply stores. Many face paints are full of toxic chemicals like lead, arsenic and mercury, and are incredibly unhealthy for anyone to wear. You can make your own right at home: Just add a little water to cornstarch and mix to face-paint consistency, then mix in a few drops of all-natural food coloring. Stir and apply for the perfect food-grade face paint!

Got a few splotches of grease on your favorite shirt? Grease stains can be a nightmare to remove, so when they happen, reach for this: chalk. Chalk is a naturally absorbent material and acts like a sponge with whatever it comes in contact with. Simply rub chalk all over the grease stain and let it sit for a few hours, then dab a little dish soap on top (also a great degreaser) before tossing it in the washing machine to launder clean. Works every time!
