Heart Health and Coffee

Coffee: More than just a drink

1. Ants in your picnic pants? Coffee grounds on ant hills will chase them away.
2. It starts when you sink in his arms, and it ends with your arms in the sink! A cup of coffee grounds makes the smell go down.
3. Clean hard surfaces: coffee grounds are a gentle abrasive which is great for cleaning smelly ashtrays and greasy surfaces (careful of surfaces that might stain).
4. Ahoy Fisherman! Become a “master” baiter! Lay your worms in a bed of moist coffee grounds. They’ll wiggle and squirm with glee and be to easier to pick up.
5. Gardeners: Mix coffee grounds in with carrot and radish seeds to make them easier to sow and repel pests at the same time.
6. No pity for your neighbor’s kitty: send neighbor’s cats somewhere else to do their business by placing used coffee grounds and orange peels around your plants and throughout the garden.
7. Scaly skin? Exfoliate your skin with coffee grounds. Pat on skin, massage over skin, rinse. Or mix coffee grounds into your favorite face or body wash.
8. Terrified of tattoos? Make your own homemade tattoos (temporary) with henna and coffee grounds.
9. Power to your plants! Old coffee grounds are nutrient-rich for plants that thrive in an acidic soil. Add used coffee grounds to the pots of indoor plants.
10. Stymie the slimy! Repel snails and slugs by adding coffee grounds to your soil before and after planting.
11. Foul fridge or freezer? A cup of fresh coffee grounds will free your fridge or freezer of fetid fumes. (Repeat.)
12. Funky Fingers? Rub coffee grounds on hands to get rid of smells from chopping or cutting up pungent foods.
13. Spruce Up! Remove furniture scratches with wet coffee grounds.
14. Burnt out? Sprinkle wet coffee grounds over the ashes to keep from becoming engulfed in the plume of dust ashes create when you need to remove them.
15. Dye fabric, paper or Easter eggs. Simply add used coffee grounds to warm water and let sit a bit to create a dye.
16. Fortify your fungus! Grow mushrooms on old coffee grounds.
