I've heard coffee grounds are fantastic for compost. Wonder if I could get a caffeine buzz from the veggies grown from it.

Use them in your garden or potted plants...
ETA you can go to your local Starbucks and get grounds... I am not sure if any of the other coffee houses do this but it won't hurt to ask... Quote:

Coffee grounds are also good if planted around carrots. It helps work as a repellent and at the same time makes it easier to weed and tug them out at harvest time.
Oh and works as a cat repellent. My mother uses them in the flowerbeds to keep the cats from doing their business in there. |

And, coffee grounds are sooooo much better for the environment. Plus, if you do have pets/kids, they are non-toxic.

Yes! For brunettes only: add 1/4 cup of used coffee grounds to about 3 cups of hot water, and let it sit until completely cool. Then strain it till all grounds are removed. Pour the liquid over your hair after washed and conditioned, and rinse after a couple of minutes. (I pour it into an empty shampoo bottle, and keep it in the shower.) It brings out lowlights, dissolves product buildup and leaves your hair super shiny and bouncy. (Plus if you use flavoured coffee, your hair will smell exceptionally delicious. I usually do this with crème brulée flavoured coffee, but sometimes with coconut.) Works on coloured hair too, as long as it's brown. |

Yes, really! One thing I forgot to mention is that you want to use a lot of it . . this recipe makes enough for 2 or 3 uses, depending on the length of your hair. Pour it over your hair and keep pouring, you really want to drench your hair with it. |
