How to store lemon juice to keep it fresh?
Lemon juice is useful for removing acne scars and I use it on my face sometimes. The juice must be pure so I literally just cut a lemon in half and squeeze it out into a cup, then apply the juice with a Q-Tip. I don't use all of it on my face at once, and to avoid waste I'd like to be able to use it the next day or so. Where can I store the juice? In the fridge? On my bathroom counter? How long does it last?
Thanks!
Answer:
In a cool cupboard in the bathroom in an airtight jar or something. It should last 3-5 days I would imagine.

How to stop my family from opening two of the same food items?
All the people in my family like to open food, so they do so without checking if there is another one open! There are two milks open, two of the same cereal, and other thing! How to keep my fam from opening so many of the same things??
Answer:
That frustrates me too, especially at work. You could always try hiding the dry goods so everyone has to pretty much empty the box before you'll bring out the new one. As far as the fridge goes, do the rotation thing (FIFO) like restaurants, newest to the back. Or in this case, shove the new milk way to the back behind something else.
How to make a homemade ice cream birthday cake?
I want to make a homemade ice cream birthday cake with fresh fruit on top of the cake. Can someone please tell me a recipe on how to make one from scratch? Thank you :)
Answer:
I made this once and it was really yummy:

I made it into a peanut butter and jelly sort of thing using peanut butter Oreos, but for vanilla I would get the yellow vanilla oreo cookies and use vanilla ice cream :) Then, when you make it like the recipe suggests, top it with the fruit.
If you wanted the actual dough cake in it rather than the oreo's, this is another one I've made:

But rather than chocolate frosting and chocolate cake mix, use vanilla, and leave out the chocolate chips.
How to store vegetables in the refrigerator?
There is a drum in the bottom of the refrigerator. And it has a lid. But I have too many vegetables. So, it's packed. I've put the extra veggies in a tray. And they are not covered up. Is that bad?
Answer:
Broccoli is one vegetable that I would blance and freeze. It emits a strong odor. The other veggies need to be in a ziplock bag but not stored on the upper shelf of frig. The water amount in some vegetables causes the veggies to freeze. If you have cauliflower, you can prepare if for serving and put it in a stackable plastic container. I have even taken it out an sprayed cold water on it and allowed to dry and then put it back in the frig. Cut vegetables need a spray of water for the texture.
The advandage of cutting your vegetables ahead of time, there is less time spent for preparation of cooking or eating fresh. Onions store well out of the frig as long as they get air around them. Hope this works for you. I am a gardener. It is important to store what I have labored for. Jo Ann
How to prepare for a hot chili eating contest?
I have unlimited time to eat a bowl of chili once a day for 5 days (each bowl gets spicier as you go on). I am not allowed to eat or drink anything during it except one glass of water. What could i do before that would help me handle the heat?
Answer:
Nooooo water whatsoever. Water = PAIIINNN.
You might want to drink some milk just to initially calm your mouth. Also learn how to breathe properly - act as if you're sucking a long string of noodles. Make sure you do the thing in an airconditioned room so that the air you breathe in is cold. And note - don't touch your eyes! Calm yourself - the more excited you are, they higher the chance of you screwing up.
My advice - swallow it as quickly as you can, and don't leave it on your tongue. Try to avoid your taste buds from touching it much by moving it from side to side.

How to store sweetened condensed milk without a fridge?
There is no fridge here, so how can I store opened can of sweetened condensed milk without spoiling it?
can i just store it in a sealed plastic container?
Answer:
Firstly, decant the milk into a glass container (sealed). Immerse in cold water. Preferably a running stream, but otherwise change the cold water frequently to keep milk cool.
But an opened can of milk just WON'T last long.
