Use a quilt to top it. |

Last year we saw this video of a lady putting on a duvet cover by somehow putting the duvet on the cover, rolling them up together, somehow tucking the end over, then unrolling and the duvet was magically inside the duvet--we've been doing it ever since. One person can get a king size duvet in its cover in less than a minute. I am not exaggerating when I say this changed our lives.

| My best life hack is Instant pot. I spend 2 hours with it on a Sunday night and we have dinners usually 4 entrees for the week. |

What do you make? (and can you link to recipes?) |

| Got this tip from the Lifehacker site - I use the Plan My Meals website. You can import recipes from any site on the internet using one of their installed buttons (no more recipe clippings for me). You can search your recipes for specific ingredients, you can make a meal calendar and then a shopping list and import the menu or list to your google or apple calendar. Recipe and meal planning was very difficult for me and this makes things much easier. You do need to put in some upfront time in getting everything imported and arranged to how you like it on the site but now getting my menu together for the month is very easy. We eat out much less! |

Poster that uses the jar in the d/w and the drawer of kids socks. We have almost 5 yo twins, two WOH parents with the nearest family 1000 miles away. We both do all of the household chores. When either of has a free moment, we catch up on the latest chore that needs to be addressed. Having little signs like the jar full of water helps us when you start to unload the dishwasher, and get interrupted by a fight between children. The kids sometimes put the socks in the hamper, sometimes they end up in the playroom, sometimes one ends up under the bed and the mate in the laundry. We try to catch things, but we don't always. I'm glad your life is all nice and orderly, but it isn't so for us. Things are getting easier as they age and can do more and understand more, but for now, we have tips that help us keep on track around two preschoolers. |

Respectfully disagree: binder clips are the best chip clips. |

| Keep a roll of press and seal plastic wrap in the car. It can be used as a table cloth on dirty park picnic tables. |

| If you child only wears pull-ups at night just in case, put them on over underwear so you can reuse them. |

No.... that isn't a "hack" so it isn't good enough. |
