Save Time With Easy Meal Hacks

Look for recipes with as few ingredients as possible. Dishes that include longer ingredient lists typically require more legwork in the kitchen, which usually involves additional prep steps and sometimes longer cook times. Plus, you’re more likely to already have the necessities on-hand for recipes that call for 5-10 ingredients rather than lengthy lists.

Buy pre-cut vegetables to trim time spent on prep work. One of the processes that can surprisingly consume more time than you realize is cutting,chopping and dicing veggies prior to even really diving into a recipe’s instructions. If you’d still prefer prepping your own fresh produce,try completing your work the night before when it doesn’t interfere with quality time spent with family.

Stock your pantry with the basics to make cooking quicker and easier. From condiments and canned goods to seasonings and spices, keeping the essentials on-hand means less time scrambling for a quick run to the store and more moments spent at home. (Family Features)

Thank you Guardian Angel!

Thank you to the gentleman who was in Geneseo Noyes Urgent Care on Saturday, January 14th. I had arrived for an X-ray but there was no order on file from the doctor. The receptionist suggested I go through urgent care who would then write a script. I was worried about the cost of taking that approach. The gentleman was sitting in the waiting room and spoke up that he would pay for my urgent care visit. I was amazed someone would be willing to do that. In the meantime, they were able to get ahold of my doctor and get the script. Regardless, I won’t forget the kindness a stranger was willing to give to me.

Purple Pony

I would just like to say thank you to The Genesee Valley Penny Saver for printing the wonderful article on Purple Pony. I had no idea they even existed. Horses are truly amazing, and to help with special needs of all ages tells a lot about these magnificent animals. Thank you, Purple Pony!

Parking area negligence

It is deplorable how many public buildings do not take care of handicap parking spots. Last year I had to quit physical therapy because you could not safely get from the car to the building. Their response “the landlord is responsible for clearing the parking lot and sidewalks.” I quit. Ff they were concerned for anyones well-being, they would address it………or was that job security for them? The handicap spots at the local senior center are never clear. They should be bone dry. I realize they cannot plow or salt when there are cars in the spots, but they should instruct their drivers to clear and salt before the center opens or after it closes. It is just common sense.

Response to "garbage plate modification"

I suppose it's none of my business how one modifies a garbage plate. While the modification of adding fish sticks to a plate with hot dogs and all the fixings is nothing short of, in my personal opinion, disgusting, I am more disturbed that someone is eating this every single day. Perhaps slowly adding in other lunches like salads and low-fat sandwiches would be beneficial to this person. As a medical professional, I see far too many people with garbage plate-related maladies in the greater Rochester area.

NOW HERE’S A TIP

By JoAnn Derson

* Toothpaste works well as a silver polish. Wet your silver, plop a little non-gel toothpaste on it and rub gently to clean. Rinse well and let it shine.

* A great hint from Mary R. of Duluth, Georgia: If the kids are drawing with felt markers and their hands get covered with ink, don’t worry. Just spray their hands down with hairspray, then wipe off the ink with a paper towel. Don’t forget to wash their hands afterward!

* Dip your toothbrush in baking soda before you add toothpaste when brushing your teeth. You get used to the taste, but the extra scrub really gets your teeth clean, and it’s very inexpensive to use. -- R.E. in Arizona

* Have clumped-up sugar in the canister? No worries. To keep sugar from hardening, add a slice of bread to the container from time to time, and leave it there a day before removing.

* Use this quick fix for oily hair. Rub a small amount of cornstarch into the oily areas of your hair. The cornstarch will soak up the dirt and oil; you just brush it out.

Tips To Help Realize Your Goals This Year

Be specific in regard to planning. Being specific when choosing goals is important, but it’s equally important to be as specific as possible in regard to developing a plan to realize those goals. Before embarking on a journey to realize your goals, figure out how you’re going to achieve them. Create a new daily or weekly schedule that allots time to realize your goals, seeking input from loved ones whose lives may be affected by your new schedule.
