1. Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips.

2. Use a meat baster to “squeeze” your pancake batter onto the hot griddle and you’ll get perfectly shaped pancakes every time….

3. To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.

4. To prevent eggshells from cracking, add a pinch of salt to the water before hard-boiling.

5. Run your hands under cold water before pressing Rice Krispies treats in the pan and the marshmallow won’t stick to your fingers.

6. To get the most juice out of fresh lemons, bring them to room temperature and roll them under your palm against the kitchen counter before squeezing.

7. To easily remove burnt on food from your skillet, simply add a drop or two of dish soap and enough water to cover bottom of pan, and bring to a boil on the stovetop.

8. Spray your Tupperware with nonstick cooking spray before pouring in tomato-based sauces and there won’t be any stains.

9. When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking pan, use a bit of the dry cake mix instead and there won’t be any white mess on outside of the cake.

10. If you accidentally over-salt a dish while it’s still cooking, drop in a peeled potato and it will absorb the excess salt for an instant “fix me up.”

11. Wrap celery in aluminum foil when putting in the refrigerator and it will keep for weeks.

13. Place a slice of apple in hardened brown sugar to soften it.

14. When boiling corn on the cob, add a pinch of sugar to help bring out the corn’s natural sweetness.

15. To determine whether an egg is fresh, immerse it in a pan of cool, salted water. If it sinks, it is fresh, but if it rises to the surface, throw it away.

16. Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away.

17. Don’t throw out all that leftover wine: Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.

18. If you have a problem opening jars: Try using latex dishwashing gloves. They give a non-slip grip that makes opening jars easy.

19. Potatoes will take food stains off your fingers. Just slice and rub raw potato on the stains and rinse with water.

20. To get rid of itch from mosquito bites, try applying soap on the area and you will experience instant relief.

21. Ants, ants, ants everywhere … Well, they are said to never cross a chalk line. So get your chalk out and draw a line on the floor or wherever ants tend to march. See for yourself.

22. Now look what you can do with Alka Seltzer. Clean a toilet. Drop in two Alka-Seltzer tablets, wait twenty minutes, brush and flush. The citric acid and effervescent action clean vitreous china. Clean a vase. To remove a stain from the bottom of a glass vase or cruet, fill with water and drop in two Alka-Seltzer tablets. Polish jewelry. Drop two Alka-Seltzer tablets into a glass of water and immerse the jewelry for two minutes. Clean a thermos bottle. Fill the bottle with water, drop in four Alka-Seltzer tablets, and let soak for an hour (or longer, if necessary). Unclog a drain. Clear the sink drain by dropping three Alka-Seltzer tablets down the drain followed by a cup of Heinz White Vinegar. Wait a few minutes, then run the hot water.

I welcome the oceans waves as they breath the hearts beat of the earth. Resonating the joys of life. Breath is taken, I’m powerless and strong. It embodies an awakened passion and gods wrath in a crash, it carries its peace on its back and vibrations of peace release in its silence. I’m home ~ * ~

My destiny thrown like dice in the great hunt of romance
I’m adorned in fabric spun by earths DNA for the fertile dance

The pounding drum within beacons me to the chase
I hunt in the jungle were nature guides my pace

He pounced, but can this cat survive in luvs cage?
Where my soulish heart believes its safe from wild rage

I follow him to foreign paths only walked by grooms
Trust guides me to luvs feast were brides have met their dooms

I still don’t know who this dark cheshire cat is
Only God knows why I was chosen to be faithfully his

I comb through layers that shed each strand of pain
True luv endures and tames oh sinners blame

The sun that moves time remind us there is more
Mates for life, Our instincts bind us tightly to the core

I bloomed for Yu oh bee
See my naked colors bust out
Reflecting my luvs energy

life forced dew rests on my petals
Waiting for you to taste my sweetness
Come to refresh your hearts thirst!

My voice of scent and powder calls
Yu enter the chamber of my soul
To touch my pure light captured

Oh bee I do so luv thee
Why do yu sting me with poison?
How can yu fly away and spill my joy?

I am covered with webs
And lost in the garden of bloom
Only luved by the sun and moon

Teri Dorsey

(Teri Dorsey DNA made into Sitar music)
23andMe making DNA into music

DNA is fingerprint of who we are and how we are connected to others. I had a DNA test done at 23andme.com This has helped me to find myself, “so to speak” and to embrace my mother and all the people that have brought me here by my maternal DNA. Their strengths and weakness are deep in the core of my genetic memory. It is now my time on the earth to experience the gift of spirit and flesh in my DNA earth suit. I invite you to be apart of my journey. Here you will meet some of my own tribe of DNA relatives 23andMe found all over the world. They are a part of me and I apart of them.
