Difficulty: Easy
Application: I used press and seal and I had a hard time getting it to stick on my shelves. I took the shelves out, cleaned them, and then applied the wrap. While I think it will be nice to just be able to peel it off and have clean shelves, in order to propagate the cleanliness I'll need to replace the liner which took about the same amount of time (if not more!) than just taking the shelves out and cleaning them.
Worth it: Not for me
Difficulty: Easy
Creation: It didn't take long to mix these things up in a coffee cup. And the one minute cook time is hard to meet in the morning rush.
Worth it: Yes! I didn't have blueberries, which I think would make this even tastier, but it was still a good breakfast that I still felt full from up until lunch.
Difficulty: Easy
Creation: A fun, quick project to do with your little one's!
Worth it: YES! Little one's can help mix this up and it is out of this world good! Just don't say I didn't warn you if you eat it all in one afternoon!
Cleaning my cookie sheets with baking soda and peroxide
Difficulty: Medium
Creation: The post links to one of her previous posts saying to use 1/4 c baking soda and enough peroxide to make a paste. I could never get my proportions right to make a true paste. I tried this on three different things (two cookie sheets and the griddle on my stove) and it didn't make a difference on any of them. I might not have had the proportions right or might not have given it enough time (5 min scrubbing each) but nothing changed in appearance.
Worth it: Nope, I didn't see any difference and the baking soda coated the area around my bowl leaving me more of a mess to clean up!

Difficulty: Medium (if your shrimp aren't peeled)
Creation: It takes a little time to peel the shrimp (if needed) and slice the lemons but other than that it's easy peasy!
Worth it: Yes. This shrimp dish was easy and very good. Charlotte gobbled the shrimp down and Jason and I thoroughly enjoyed them also!
Some notes: I cut up 2 lemons and thought that was plenty although if you want yours presentation perfect you might want more. I bought 3/4 lb of fresh shrimp for us and we ate every piece. I just estimated with Italian seasoning from my jar instead of from a packet.
Difficulty: Medium
Creation: It takes a while to cut up the zucchini and you have to remember to take it out at the right time and add the cheese.
Worth it: Yes. Great summer vegetable dish. Next time I'll add squash too and it will be perfect. This was three smallish zucchini and we ate it all.
Difficulty: Easy
Creation: The parchment paper in the dish was a good hint that I'd never thought of before. It made cleanup a breeze. And they aren't lying when they say that your chicken will be juicy and tender! But I did have to make myself not think about how much mayo was in the dish. Next time I'll make sure I have a low-fat version on hand.
Worth it: Yes. The chicken was amazing and very easy to put together!
