Think what a better world it would be if we all, the whole world, had cookies and milk about three o'clock every afternoon and then lay down on our blankets for a nap.

Cut Snow Shoveling Time In Half!


I first posted this in February of last year, but with the recent blizzards throughout the country, I thought a repost was in order! This tip is sure to help those buried in the snow this week.

To clear your driveway or walk areas fast, use a paper towel to apply 1/4 cup butter to your shovel! The fat molecules in the spread form a water resistant barrier that keeps flurries from building on the shovel and weighing you down. The snow will slide right off each scoop, and you can get the job done twice as fast.

I have a friend who told me she's tired of shoveling snow, I'll let her know this tip. Thanks for sharing and thanks for your comment on my blog, your breakfast sounds yum.
