  1. #Homemade #BananaPeels #fertilizer.
    I throw in spent banana peels into a large bucket of water, with a bit of cane sugar(you don't need much) to speed up the breakdown of peels. If you leave it in sun for 5 days, it looks like this. Strain out & use as liquid fertilizer. You can either bury peels in garden beds or toss into compost to boost biomaterial.

  4. Watch your money burn

    $664 a year for ten years is $6,640. The counter does the hurting; the mint card at the end does the fixing. Loop it.

    allthethings.best/robot-vacuum
    Robot vacuum myths are real and can push you into spending too much money or buying the wrong machine for your home. When you expect a cheap robot to replace your upright or skip features like mapping or a self-empty dock without thinking through how you clean, the cost shows up later in frustration and extra work.

  10. I repurpose used plastic knives & spoons as reusable plant markers. It's easy to wipe off old Sharpie ink with some baby oil, wash the plastic cutlery & reuse them many times. They're more durable than store-bought plant markers & easy to write on.
