If you find yourself a little forgetful, try doing something unusual when you do something you need to remember. For example, when you lock the door, knock on it a few times. The feeling in you're knuckles will remind you that you locked the door.
Here's another. We talked about this in the bbq sauce thread but make your own sauce fellas. You have the ingredients in your refrigerator/ cabinets right now(ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, honey, salt and pepper, cayenne). Those are the basics. You can then add on from there depending on what flavor you're going for. More honey for honey bbq, liquid smoke for a smokey flavor, chipotle powder for a spicier flavor, it's completely up to you
