You can shine your shoes with a banana peel.

    Ok, Ok...It looks like it's actually the inside.  You smear the inside of the peel over the shoe, let it dry for a few min and buff with a cloth.  Who knew??

    That seems so weird! But, now everyone with a toddler can put them to work-I mean they already get banana all over everything anyway. Give them the peel and some shoes and you'll entertain them for an hour!

    I double dog dare you both to try this with your husbands shoes in front of them. LOL! I contemplated it with DH's work boots but I'm pretty sure I'd be dead before I had a chance to explain. Not sure that the Coast Guard approves of the banana boot method.

    I'm actually thinking of letting Q have at it with a pair of MY shoes.  I'll report back.

    I'm sure the odor would fade pretty quickly
