Tips
Reusing Plastic bags
When using bags that have contained bread or dry goods, just shake them before storing them. If the bag got a bit wet inside, clean it with a little soap and water and dry it somewhere out of the way .
Reuse cans
Use small tuna cans as cookie cutters. Just use a pair of needle nose pliers to bend them into shapes.
Make a fire starter! Remove the top and the bottom, punch holes along the bottom edge. Punch two holes on either side of the top edge. Attach a coat hanger handle to the top. Place in the center of the grill, put newspaper in the bottom, coal on top of the newspaper, and light from the bottom (stick a match in one of the bottom holes). It gets the coals going faster and hotter. Remove the can before putting the food on.
