My Dirty Little Secret

We all have little tricks to make life easier, don't we? Life hacks, some call them. I call this my dirty little secret because nobody in my family can detect this. And it has saved us so many times!

Problem: Out of milk (or nearly out of milk)
Solution: Powdered milk. Stir in water. Add to milk jug. Problem solved! 

Seriously, I have done this many times and my family can't tell a difference. A lot of times we run low on milk, but it isn't worth a trip to the grocery store. So, I pull one of these handy-dandy packages out of the cupboard, add water! Wa-la! We can go another day without a trip to town!

Here's what it looks like:

Not enough milk to get through a morning of cereal.

Mix 'n Drink to the rescue!!!

Powder + water = milk

Quick fix!!
