It's bound to happen: You lost the match for one of your socks. So what to do with unpartnered socks? Save them for when you want to quickly get wrinkles out of your clothing. Toss your wrinkled shirts or pants into the dryer and saturate a few stray socks with water so they are damp, but not dripping wet. Toss the socks into the dryer and let it run for a few minutes. The wet socks will create steam and help release wrinkles in your clothes. Bonus use for an unmated sock: Cover an ice pack so the sock protects your skin from direct contact.

When buying groceries, your choices can have an impact on birds, too. If you eat meat, look for grass-fed meat. Birds that depend on fields and prairies will thrive side-by-side with cows that graze on grassland. And buying shade-grown coffee also helps our feathered friends. Instead of cutting down rainforest land to grow coffee, the crops are grown under the canopy of the rainforest. It's believed that 2 square feet of rainforest land is saved for every cup of shade-grown coffee.

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, nearly 41 million Americans face hunger, and that number includes 13 million children. When donating to your local food bank or pantry, it's key to donate what's needed most, rather than using it as a means to clean out your own pantry. Purchase muffin mixes that only require water over those that call for things like eggs and oil; the extra ingredients can make it difficult for people to actually use the mix. Canned soups and meats are rich in protein and can be used to make meals. And shelf-stable milk and juice boxes are coveted, since they last longer and can also be given to families with young children.
