Ever wonder what to do with those plastic buckets from Suter's Strawberries?

Here are some ideas:

1. soak stained clothes overnight

2. collect waste water when you're brushing your teeth/washing up and pour it into the toilet for a recycled top-flush (it works!)

3. gather veggie scraps by your sink for the compost pile

4. make a car kit for your kids with coloring books, games and crayons for your summer vacation

5. use it to keep your glue gun and all your extra glue in one place

I didn't know the X-ray machine was possibly still in the old Walter Gratz shoe store (my friends and I called him Walter Goose because he sold Red Goose shoes), but I remember stepping into it when my parents would take me in to get shoes at the store.

Seeing my foot bones, which were so interesting!, was quite enlightening. Perhaps it led to my daughter's career choice as an anatomist.
