Fisherwoman Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 Hi here's some other great ways to use up that extra Vodka, besides making home made Kahlua, 1. To remove a bandage painlessly, saturate the bandage with vodka. The stuff dissolves adhesive. 2. 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. 3. 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. 4. 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. 5. Spray vodka on wine stains, scrub with a brush, and then blot dry. 6 Using a cotton ball, apply vodka to your face as an astringent to cleanse the skin and tighten pores. 7. 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. 8. Fill a sixteen-ounce trigger-spray bottle with vodka and spray bees or wasps to kill them. 9. Pour one-half cup vodka and one-half cup water into a Ziploc freezer bag and freeze for a slushy, refreshing ice pack for aches,? pain or black eyes. 10. 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. 11. To relieve a fever, use a washcloth to rub vodka on your chest and back as a liniment. 12. To cure foot odor, wash your feet with vodka. 13. Vodka will disinfect and alleviate a jellyfish sting. 14. Pour vodka over an area affected with poison ivy to remove the urushiol oil from your skin. 15. Swish a shot of vodka over an aching tooth. Allow your gums to absorb some of the alcohol to numb the pain. Quote

Taco Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 "7. 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." It's already too late for the hair on my head but apparently I sat in the stuff Quote
flyangler Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 I use a third of a cup of vodka, 20 drops of manuka 20 of lavender essential oils as a cleaner for the face rest of my massage chair between patients. I'll bet you could use your lavender/vodka infusion for the same. Cheap vodka is the best for these things. Save the spendy stuff for making limoncello. Yum. Quote
LynnF Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 Wow...who knew that the Grey Goose was good for something other than martini's. Go figure. I'm gonna try the caulking one this weekend. I don't think I'll mess with the shampoo one - my luck my hair would turn green. A jigger is another word for a shotglass isn't it? Quote
birchy Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 Ummmmmmmm.... can anyone say "alcohol abuse"? Cause using vodka for anything other than drinking is exactly that! Quote

Jayhad Posted October 6, 2008 Posted October 6, 2008 This thread makes me cry, Vodka is good with pickled veggys in shot glasses, with salmon on rye bread, with cabbage rolls or anything else from the motherland... but not for scalps, bacteria, teeth or bees Quote

Fisherwoman Posted October 6, 2008 Author Posted October 6, 2008 Hi, I've given this recipe to my brother to try out, he says it tingles his scalp, he's been putting it on now for 2 days, It's worth a try, at least for a month.. HAIR LOSS: Apply a paste of hot olive oil, a tablespoon of honey, a teaspoon of cinnamon powder before bath, leave it for 15 min and wash. Quote

ÜberFly Posted October 7, 2008 Posted October 7, 2008 A jigger = 1.5 oz (it's a "true shot" as opposed to what you usually get in a bar)! P What the hell is a Jigger of vodka?...... I hope that is not a typo? Clive? Taco? Anyone? Quote

You just wanted to use the word hirsute to show how smart you are. Your intellect is prodigious, dood. Quote
