Clean it up

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

Did you know…..

A kitchen sponge holds at times more active bacteria than the toilet bowl. Sterilize it in the dishwasher or replace it frequently.

That when you flush the toilet, particles of toilet water are scattered eight feet in all directions.   ALWAYS close the lid before you flush.

Your cutting board has lots of germs.   Clean it with white vinegar at least every other time you use it.

Your coffeemaker will last longer if you clean it well once or twice a month.   Clean it by running it with a white vinegar solution twice in a row then rinse with plain water.

Making Dinner

Monday, May 19th, 2008

Never prepare food when you are angry or depressed.

The strong emotions that you are experiencing will affect the food. Those who consume it will be forced to “digest” your negative feelings and it will adversely affect them!

On the physical level, you are more prone to drop things, forget to add certain items, or have an accident (like cutting yourself with a knife).

Eating should be a nourishing, pleasant, and leisurely so that digestion is better and the tastes and textures and colors of the food can be fully appreciated. BON APPETIT!
