Today’s Resolution: Sharpen Your Blades
Give yourself an edge by sharpening the blades in your home. Sometimes a good sharp edge is hard to find when you need one. Scissors and knives, as many other things, need to be rejuvenated. The obvious method would be with a blade sharpener, but if you do not have that, there are some other home tricks. Try using a pair of scissors on some aluminum foil; make several cuts to sharpen the blades. For a dull blade (avoid serrated edges here), try running it over the bottom of a ceramic cup or bowl that is not glazed, or on a terra cotta pot. See what other methods you can come up with.
