Household Chores In Half The Time
By Linda Gray, Fri Dec 9th
Household chores aren't hard, nor are they particularly boring -nice to have time to think sometimes! BUT they aretime-consuming. These tried and tested tips will cut your'chores time' in half... 1. Organize: Start at the top of the house and clear it up! Then allocateplaces for absolutely everything. Install shelves and cupboardsin the bedrooms, and make sure there is enough space for eachpile of clothes. Before you go on to the next room, put a labelon the front of the shelf in full view of the shorter members ofthe family. Then there will be no 'But I don't know where itgoes' complaints when you ask them to put their stuff away.
Work through the house, re-organizing. You don't have to spendloads of money. I was once obliged to use 'cupboards' made fromcardboard boxes. They lasted a short time and the kids werequite happy to put their clothes away in the novelty cupboards. Shelves are a must in the children's rooms - you'll always be onat them to clear up but at least the little darlings mayactually do it if they know where everything goes! The kitchen has to be organized, no question, or you'll wastetons of time every day, looking for a wooden spoon, movingdishes to fit plates on shelves etc; 2. Health Before Beauty: Wall to wall carpet harbours germs even the most rigoroushoovering won't destroy. Throw them all out and go for polishedwooden floors. Use rugs on cold spots and shake them outsideevery day or two. Sweep wooden floors gently with a soft broom.Avoid hoovering every day - some hoovers emit a very fine dustinto the air through their exhaust. This dust isn't particularlygood for the lungs, better the dust underfoot! A quick shake of a rug and a sweep will take a lot less timethan getting out the hoover, doing the biz, wrapping it all upand putting it away aging. And the broom doesn't interfere withthe radio! 3. Bye bye bleach: Do you need shades when you look at your kitchen sink? Chancesare the bleach is taking over! Research has proved that those ofus who live in a sterile environment have a less efficientimmune system than those who slum it a bit! Cut the bleaching byhalf. And

How shocked would be you be to learn that the U.S. population is being slowly poisoned by a single ingredient deliberately added to the human food supply?
At first, it sounds like nonsense. But then you realize, after learning more, that the World Health Organization tried to outlaw this ingredient...
The mass poisoning of humanity: an exploration of human stupidity
As human beings, we're the only species stupid enough to actually poison ourselves. As part of modern living, we create a wide variety of chemical toxins that go into the ecosystem through rivers and streams, the air, the soil and so on. Not only that, we actually synthesize toxic chemicals and then...
Q&A: How to reduce high blood pressure and restore healthy cholesterol levels with natural health
A reader asks,"What are the proven natural products that reduce high blood pressure and restore healthy cholesterol levels? I am taking steps on the nutritional side of things such as avoiding meat and dairy products while eating a lot of fruits."
First of all, congratulations to you for taking some...
if you sterilise your house for the benefit of guestsand their opinions, then be prepared to inform them gracefullythat you are building your family's immune systems - and savingthe earth a little. Be smug. 4. 90% less ironing: Ironing or pressing cloth reduces it's lifespan considerably.You may have an outwardly smooth appearance but inside the clothis a tangled mess of flattened fibres. As soon as the washing machine has finished it's final spin,hang the washload on an outside washing line, weatherpermitting. Shake each item before pegging it out, and pulljeans into shape. Air the washload by folding carefully and putting in an airingor warming cupboard, or hang over radiators. If there's a delay in hanging out your washing, take it out ofthe machine and fold it carefully, smoothing and gently pullingeach item into shape. Now the moment of truth! Only iron whatNEEDS to be ironed. Towels, sheets, jumpers, underwear andoveralls probably don't need ironing. Smoothing and folding damp washing eliminates lots of creases,and everything that doesn't get a fibre crushing treatment willlive a lot longer! 5. Designer Leftovers: Try these delicious family dishes from leftovers, saving time inthe kitchen, oh, and money too. Note: Leftovers should beconsumed or discarded within 24 hours. Bake too many jacket potatoes, cool and refrigerate leftoversovernight. Cooking a whole tray of potatoes takes no longer thancooking one or two.
