For grating butter, chill the grater too, helps keep butter from warming up so fast.

Living off grid, when I gather eggs from the nests, I pencil the date on the eggs shells. I know right away which ones are the oldest, so I use them first!

Most eggs in a grocery store are over a month old. Farm fresh eggs are kept on counter tops for weeks as long as you don't wash them . Only wash them before use.

I and my kids love sautéed mushrooms but it is time consuming to slice them. Instead I use an egg slicer. The pieces are all the same size, cook evenly and take a fraction of the time to cut them for frying.

Peeled onions stayed crisp when wrapped in tin foil, placed in a plastic bag and refrigerated for a month. I still haven't used all of them and they are still crisp. So handy to use. When peeling or slicing onions KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT and you will NOT HAVE TEARS. No talking, singing, humming whistling, keep your mouth SHUT until you are finished with the onions.

Keep butter wrappers piled up in a plastic bag in the deep freeze, you’ve got an instant pan greaser for cakes and muffins.

I don't know if this is a proper kitchen hack or not, but to use just part of the onion and not the entire thing, cut what you need from the stem end. If you leave the roots attached to the rest, it will stay fresh in a closed container. Same with bell peppers, leave the seed part inside if you just need part of the pepper for now and keep it in an airtight container.

We have laying hens. The fresher your egg the more difficult it is to peel once "hard-boiled". The answer is to steam them ... Even an egg laid in the morning will slip out easily with little effort. Large Eggs take about 23 minutes to be perfect.

I never microwave leftover pizza. Instead, I put it in a dry frying pan and cover with a lid, heat until the toppings are up to temp. The pizza is warmed to eating temp and the crust is crispy.

To core a red or green pepper even more easily: hold the pepper with both hands, with your fingertips together on the bottom of the pepper, and your thumbs on top of the pepper. Use your thumbs to push the core into the pepper. I used to work at a pizza place, and cored thousands of peppers this way - it's MUCH faster than the 4-cut method.

To remove the entire core of a pepper, seeds and all, just PUSH the stem inside the pepper without releasing it - this detaches the core - then pull out and discard. No knife needed.

To get juice out of a lemon roll lemon around under your hand on the countertop shove a skewer up the lemon. Pullout and squeeze out juice seeds will be inside the lemon

Problem with the avocado stem hint is that you only want to do that if you think the avocado is ripe. If it is ripe, it will be a nice green, like the inside of a ripe avocado. If it is OVER-RIPE, it will be brown. But please don't go into a store and flip the stems off all the avocados, because the unripe ones will not ripen after the stem is lost. My store often has almost all the stems missing on unripe avocados - a real waste.

Hint: NEVER crack more then one egg into a communal bowl. If one rotten egg goes into the bowl, you have wasted them all. Crack them separately into a smaller bowl then add them to the larger bowl.
