I saw this on the internet and thought I'd share. To add to our list of uses for baking soda, here are some tips for using vodka.


1. To remove a bandage painlessly,

saturate the bandage with vodka.
The stuff dissolves adhesive.
________________________________________


2. To clean the caulking around bathtubs and showers,
fill a trigger-spray bottle with vodka, spray the caulking,
let set five minutes and wash clean.

The alcohol in the vodka kills mold and mildew.
________________________________________


3. To clean your eyeglasses,


simply wipe the lenses with a soft,
clean cloth dampened with vodka.
The alcohol in the vodka cleans the glass and kills germs.

________________________________________


4. Prolong the life of razors by filling a cup with vodka
and letting your safety razor blade
soak in the alcohol after shaving.

The vodka disinfects the blade and prevents rusting.

________________________________________


5. Spray vodka on wine stains,
scrub with a brush, and then blot dry.

________________________________________


6. Using a cotton ball, apply vodka to your face
as an astringent to cleanse the skin and tighten pores.

________________________________________


7. Add a jigger of vodka to a 12-ounce bottle of shampoo.

The alcohol cleanses the scalp, removes toxins from hair,
and stimulates the growth of healthy hair.

________________________________________


8. Fill a sixteen-ounce trigger-spray bottle with vodka
and spray bees or wasps to kill them.

________________________________________


9 Pour one-half cup vodka and one-half cup water into a Ziploc freezer bag and freeze for a slushy, refreshing ice pack for aches, pain or black eyes.

________________________________________


10. Fill a clean, used mayonnaise jar
with freshly packed lavender flowers,
fill the jar with vodka, seal the lid tightly
and set in the sun for three days.
Strain liquid through a coffee filter,
then apply the tincture to aches and pains.

________________________________________


11. To relieve a fever, use a washcloth
to rub vodka on your chest and back as a liniment.

________________________________________


12. To cure foot odor, wash your feet with vodka.

________________________________________


13 Vodka will disinfect and alleviate a jellyfish sting.

________________________________________


14. Pour vodka over an area affected with poison ivy to remove the urushiol oil from your skin.

________________________________________


15. Swish a shot of vodka over an aching tooth.

Allow your gums to absorb some of the alcohol to numb the pain.

I thought the slushy in number 9 was to drink. Then they said to use it as an ice pack. What are they thinking?
