Using dental floss instead of a knife to cut cake may not be such a bad idea. By using dental floss, you can keep the top layer of the cake intact.

Most refrigerators have round egg cells for storage. However, the top of the refrigerator’s wings tends to be warmer than other areas. To best store eggs, place them on the bottom shelf, facing the back.

When combing your hair, start from the top of your head instead of the bottom. This helps distribute the natural oils in your hair more evenly and prevents oily skin.

If you have trouble keeping bobby pins in place, you may be using them incorrectly. The correct way is to push them into your hair with the wavy side facing down. The design of the pins will grip the hair and prevent slipping.

We often wait for food to cool before placing it in the refrigerator. However, it is not necessary to do so. Instead, separate large portions of food into smaller containers to cool more quickly and then refrigerate them.
