Avrelia has the weirdest deja vu evah

I occasionally look through LifeHacker striving to improve my productivity. It leads to more waste of time, but for a good cause.

But this day I had a blast from a past with this, rather useful advice: How to re-purpose old pantyhose. The very same advices I used to see in the old women's magazines I read in Soviet Union during perestroyka. We didn't have an overabundance of stuff in the stores then, so we usually did everything out of everything else, didn't throw away packaging, old pantyhose, and newspapers and re-purposed anything that could be re-purposed. And yes, we did keep onions in pantyhose.

So yeah.. it gives me a certain perspective on life in USA

They also advise to make Sbiten. I concur. It is supposed to be good. ;)

Out of strange re-usage I remember that we used to crotchet cleaning things for dishes out of the plastic net that onions and potatoes were packaged in

If you turned them into fishnet stockings, you'd have a perfect circle of recycling insanity!
