We always have a bowl of nuts on the dining room table, along with a nut cracker. The nuts last so much longer when you have to crack them yourself. I hate to throw away anything useful so I asked mom-in-law if anything can be done with nutshells. Here's the tip.
If you throw the shells around your precious herbs or lettuce etc the snails won't crawl over and eat your crop before you do as they can't slither over the shells. You can also crush eggs shells for the same effect.
I sprinkled the shells around yesterday and time will tell whether this tip works.
Now, what can I do with the coffee grounds?
Oh sweet child of mine...

Ah, ground coffee beans are good for compost and good to put down the drain, to clean out all the oil and bits of food left behind.
That's really clever, thanks
