16 Pantry Items You’re Probably Keeping for Too Long

Quinoa Real on a wooden spoon

Quinoa

The shelf life of whole grains like quinoa and farro is largely dependent on their fat content. Heat, air, and moisture are the top three enemies of whole grains because the elements can negatively affect their healthy oils, which in turn can cause your grains to go rancid sitting in your pantry. “Grains should always look and smell faintly sweet or have no aroma at all,” states the Whole Grains Council. “If you detect a musty or oily scent, the grains have passed their peak.” A good rule of thumb for freshness is to keep all grains in air-tight zipped bags or containers. Most will maintain their taste quality for up to six months. Quinoa typically lasts four months in the pantry and even longer when stored in the freezer—about eight months.

Milk Jug Hack: How to Make a Simple Scoop

Image
I’ve read many hints that advise the reader to cut off the tops of plastic milk jugs and use them for funnels. I’ve found that if you replace the cap after cutting the top off, you can use the milk jug for a scoop, too. It’s perfect for handling potting soil, fertilizer or pet food. The no-scratch plastic also makes the milk jug scoop ideal for bailing water out of your boat. — Ray Dean How to Make a Milk Jug Scoop For this scoop, we used an empty half-gallon milk jug and angled the cut so that the side opposite the handle is slightly longer, more like a scoop than a funnel. Draw your cut line on the milk jug. Use sharp scissors to cut on the line. Trim or sand off any rough or sharp edges on your milk jug scoop. As Ray notes above, this scoop can also be used as a funnel by simply removing the milk jug cap. In addition to this handy pet food scoop, check out more projects that’ll show your pet some love .

30 Things That Look Like A Vagina — But Aren’t!

Image
The amazing vagina. Really a genius work of engineering, a true workhorse. So much respect for the incredible Miss V. There is one thing though, I really can’t hold it in any longer! No –- I have been doing my pelvic floor exercises – it’s not that! It, well, and it may just be me but I really do think the vagina was standing outside the room when looks were being given out. Granted –- the vagina is a quite striking composition and one that is very distinct in its appearance. Quite the individual. Or is it?! Hmmmm… It seems the ole Vejayjay has cheap rip offs / imitations appearing around the world. Objects trying to ‘imitate’ this wondrous thing it would seem.

Well okay – more like Vulvas but for effect today they are coming under the vagina umbrella. Sit back, do some squinting, head tilting if needed, but be warned. Once you see ...
