Tuesday Tips

Today I’m sharing some Tuesday Tips that you might enjoy!

Soda Can Cake

You need or crave a cake but don’t want to pull out all the ingredients or you don’t have oil on hand to make a packaged cake. No worries, you can make a soda can cake with a can of soda and a box of cake mix! I don’t drink soda but usually have it on hand when we have visitors over.

This is my soda can cake using Dr. Pepper. Just pour a can of any flavor of soda in the dry cake mix batter and whisk it together. I got a bit fancy before I baked it by adding Hershey kisses with marshmallows, Werther’s Candy Apple Caramels and sprinkles. Bake as the directions on the box. This cake is so moist and delicious!

Crumbled Cookies

The other day I posted about stale donuts so how about stale cookies or you have a pile of crumble cookies that you can’t pick up to dunk in your milk. Well I came up with crumbled cookies cereal! LOL Add the pieces of cookies in a bowl of milk and top with whipped cream for a quick dessert!

Halloween to Christmas Pillows

I posted my trick about stuffing outdoor pillows with plastic bags in October. This is a great way to be able to use pillows outside without the stuffing getting wet or moldy. This is our Halloween pillow display on the front bench. I was getting ready to store them for next year when I had a brainstorm. The backs were a cream so I flipped them over, added some pretty ribbon and ornaments and made Christmas pillows from my Halloween pillows!

Poop Bag Holder

We misplaced Snowballs poop bag holder and he loves going for walks! I came up with the idea to make one from an old pill bottle. Rich drilled a hole in the top the perfect size to push the bags through while the roll is neatly stored in the bottle. We can pull one off the roll when needed and we’re all set for Snowball’s walk!
