Healthier "Juice"
Commercial juices contain added sugar making it less healthy. You can dilute it and still enjoy the flavor by freezing the juices in ice cube trays. Fill a glass with sparkling water and add a few juice cubes in there. If you do this with cranberry juice, it's yummy and pretty.
Strawberry and Lemon Flavored Water
For a more fun flavored water, add thin slices of strawberry and lemon to it. I like to make a big batch the night before and enjoy it throughout the day.
Cucumber and Lime Flavored Water
Make your water more refreshing and enjoyable by adding thin slices of cucumbers and lime.

Sand Storage, the Best Storage
The best way you store ginger is to leave it in sand. I know it sounds weird, but ginger does best in a dry environment. And what's a dryer environment than sand? It can last indefinitely stored in sand.
Walk and Talk or Walk and Listen
If you aren't looking for a rigorous workout routine and just want some basic exercise, walking is a free and easy solution. It's a gentle cardio that can be combined with strength training, if you'd like, by carrying dumbbells. Unlike running or circuit training, walking doesn't require as much self-motivation. To make sure you walk, consider finding a friend you can talk to regularly. It's a great way to keep in touch with friends. If you don't have a buddy in mind, consider listening to your favorite radio show or news radio.

Rejuvenate Your Dark Clothes to New Status
As your dark colors fade with time, consider re-dying it with inexpensive Rit dye instead of replacing it. Buying staple clothes such as camisoles, tank tops, crew neck tees, long crew neck tees, v-neck tees, etc and re-dying them will prolong their lifespan, while saving you money.
