Do you want to have a party at home or just watch a movie with your significant other, but don’t want to wash a sea of dishes afterwards? Don't like the fact that your recipe book gets covered in pieces of culinary creations or just want to make your life easier? Nowadays, modern housewives have become very inventive. They have learned to do many things around the house easier and are ready to share them.
Cooking poached eggs
Can't cook poached eggs like in a restaurant? Now this is not a problem! We will need: a plastic bag, butter, egg. Take a bag, grease the inside with butter (or sunflower oil) and break an egg into the bag. We tie the bag as close to its contents as possible so that the egg retains its shape. Place the bag in a pan of boiling water and cook for 3-4 minutes.
Transformation into a plate
Want to eat chips with a group of friends, but don't want to wash the plate? Make a round hole with a burr in the middle of the pack and pull it in a spiral. Voila, the disposable plate is ready!
Let's turn on the lights
Trying to light candles, but all attempts end in burns? Or do you only have one last match left for everything? Spaghetti will come to the rescue. Light one straw and light all the others.
For dessert - potato pancakes!
You can’t live without such a delicacy as potato pancakes, but frying them in a frying pan with oil has become hard on the liver? The good old one will come to the rescue waffle iron. Feel free to take the waffle maker, grease it with oil and boldly bake potato waffles.
Super protection for your favorite recipe book
Don't want to get your favorite cookbook dirty while cooking? Then take a transparent glass cutting board and protect your “helper” with it. The book will remain clean, and food particles from the glass can be removed with a light movement of a rag.
Let's forget about “sticky” products
Tired of cleaning dishes from sticky foods like honey or caramel? This problem can be solved very simply. If the container in which you are going to place Velcro is treated with a non-stick spray that is completely safe for human health, then nothing will stick to your container.
Double-deck microwave
Can't fit two plates into the microwave at once? Place one of them on a stable mug and forget about the previous problem.
Fresh juice
Can't imagine your day without a sip of freshly squeezed orange juice, but don't have a juicer? There is an exit! Take any unwanted plastic bottle and use scissors or a utility knife to cut off the neck so that it can be inserted into the orange. Mash the fruit thoroughly to make the juice easier to pour out and make a hole in it. We connect the fruit and the neck of the bottle and enjoy the juice.
Compact freezing of minced meat
Is the freezer so small that you can’t even fit minced meat? No problem! Transfer the meat to a freezer bag and roll it out flat with a rolling pin. And with the help of food shelves you can divide it into small portions. This freezing option will not only save space in the freezer, but will also allow you to quickly defrost it.
DIY sippy funnel
Do you need to pour or pour something into a bottle, but don’t have a funnel at hand? Use foil. You can make a funnel of any shape and size from foil.
Money talks
Can't open the package without scissors or a knife? Any two coins will come to the rescue. Wrap them around the package on opposite sides and open it in the usual way.
The second life of a kitchen sponge
It's no secret that you need to change dish sponges every 3 days, because they accumulate a lot of bacteria. However, for many this seems like a waste. Getting rid of germs is easier than you think! Soak a sponge in dishwashing detergent, place it on a napkin and microwave for 2 minutes; there will be no trace of germs left.
Package box
A box of tissues can be used to make a nice bag organizer. Slide each subsequent package into the handles of the previous one and enjoy order and convenience.
Superpower - opening a jar with ease
Can't open a jar? Place tape on the lid and pull. You will be able to pull much stronger and more effectively than rotate.

Can't you write in Russian? These English life hacks and other English-language crap are already infuriating.
I would read 14 useful tips, but I won’t read life hacks
Crap.
Thank you, I learned something new, I’ll take it into account.
Can't you write in Russian?
It's nonsense about sponges, it's easier to throw them away. It’s even funnier about the tape: if you can’t open it with your hand, then even more so with tape. They are already writing and writing about packages, no, we are saving them again.
