====================================
HANDY HINT #1: CELL PHONE SPEAKER SYSTEM. If you do not
have a land phone this may work for you. I do not want to
haul it around with me at home, so a baby monitor with a
couple of speakers placed where you are most of the time
will work. Now, I leave my phone next to the monitor and can
hear my phone ringing anywhere I want in my house or
outside.
#2 If the ice cream in your freezer hangs out for a while,
LOL, store the container upside down so frost crystals will
not form on it.
=============================================
