Fruits...Tips

To find a great tasting watermelon, hold the melon to your ear and knock on it. The more hallow it sounds, the better the taste.

If you are expecting company for dinner and want to serve your guests some fruits after their meal, here is a tip.
To keep fresh cut fruits like red or green apples from turning brown, coat the fruit's sliced surface with lemon juice. Not only it preserve its color, it will also give the apple slices a fresh tangy taste.

Tips

If you love the smell of fresh herbs and spices, try this for your home.
Just place a pan of water on low fire and add an assortment of spices into it.
Let the spices simmer for a few minutes until they turn fragrant.
Try cloves,cinnamon or basil and they all smell naturally delightful.

If your precious china plates are fragile and prone to scratches, keep them in top condition using this strange trick.
Place paper plates between the plates as you stack them. Apart from keeping your china scratches-free, the paper plates also allow the china to slide out more easily when you retrieve them.

Rainny day



These rainny day season, i was admiring my flowers... Then i saw this cute little fellow in my plant pot.. Do u notice the brown froggie in the flower pot? I wonder how did he managed to climb the walls coz this pot is at my verandah (1st floor) and on a top rack of 3 layer rack. Curious... cant make up with any formular to explain how he managed to climb.

I just leave him there and when i peep in the evening, he is gone.... Hopefully the bird didnt eat him... :)
