Make waffle shots this weekend. WAFFLE SHOTS.
OH MAH GERD. These waffle-themed shots (OJ, lemon juice, maple syrup, gelatin and vodka) by Jelly Shot Test Kitchen are AMAZEBALLS. I want to become gently inebriated from these so bad.
Make skull art with bookcases

Bring all your groceries inside with ONE TRIP every time

Save food from the fridge
