Vodka Tips
 

Now they tell us...............if we only had known before.

To remove a bandage painlessly, saturate the bandage with vodka. The solvent dissolves adhesive.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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

Pour one-half cup vodka and one-half cup water in a Ziploc freezer bag.   Freeze for a slushy, refreshable ice pack for aches, pain or black eyes.

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.

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

To cure foot odor, wash your feet with vodka.

Vodka will disinfect and alleviate a jellyfish sting.

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

Swish a shot of vodka over an aching tooth. Allow your gums to absorb some of the alcohol to numb the pain.

And silly me, I've only been drinking the stuff!!!

I wouldn't advise using any of these remedies if you are planning on driving......if stopped, you may be asked to take a breathalyser test just because of the way you smell...... grin

Seriously .. that was interesting.   It would be even more interesting .. ya' know that would be the day you would run into everyone you know in WalMart and you're trying to explain that the case of Vodka is for Spring cleaning.  LOL

It kinda sounds like my frozen margarita's in a bucket.  I guess the alcohol keeps the water from freezing solid and it remains more of a slush.  Hey, I could use the frozen margarita mix on my back, then drink if for pain relief..... grin
