Here's a handy household tip from Anna Welander:

Cigarette burn on rug: Cut one lemon in half. Squeeze juice into large
glass of gin mixed 50-50 with tonic. Add ice. Drink enough glasses of
this solution until burn becomes blurry. Move couch over mark.

The first breakfast burrito I ever tasted was served from a craft truck
as I was standing around doing nothing as an extra in the movie "My
Cousin Vinnie." I never got in front of a camera, but I did enjoy
getting paid to watch them shoot a film, and I am also happy I learned
about this tasty and practical dish.

Breakfast Burritos

1 Tbs (15 ml) butter
1 medium potato, finely diced
1 green bell pepper (capsicum), seeded and finely diced
4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
8 eggs, lightly beaten
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
4 flour tortillas
4 oz (100 g) cheddar cheese, shredded
1/2 cup (125 ml) Mexican-style salsa
2 scallions (spring onions), finely chopped

Melt the butter in a skillet over moderate heat and saute the potato and
pepper until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the bacon and eggs and cook,
stirring frequently, until set. Divide the egg mixture between the
tortillas and top with the cheese, salsa, and scallions. Roll up, tucking the ends under.
Serves 4.
