It always gets into my nerves when some inconsiderate housemates force unwanted food down the kitchen sink and caused it to clog. Not only will the sink emit unpleasant odor, it will also stall my process of preparing a meal as more and more unwashed dishes get stacked up. I still wonder why some people have that bad habit when the rubbish bin is just a step away. What would you do when you have clogged kitchen sinks or drains in the house? Using harmful chemicals to unclog the kitchen sinks might not be a good idea as that is where we handle all the food we consume, not forgetting the utensils that we wash there daily.
Here are some of the measurements I applied to prevent such happenings. Firstly, I would use a food trapper to trap all the remains from the washing of the dishes and throw the remains into the rubbish bag. With this preventive measurement, I still get some inconsiderate housemates forcing food remains down the pipeline. When will they learn to be more responsible? That’s a big question mark!
Whenever situation like this occur, I would have to think of the next step which is to mix up some non-chemical based solution to flush the food remains down the drain. One of the more commonly used solutions I did was to mix half a cup of baking soda with half a cup of vinegar in a large container and pour fizzing solution quickly down the sink pipeline and left it covered for about 10 minutes. The combined solution will break the fatty acids into soap and glycerine. I would then pour a kettle of boiling water down the pipeline to further flush it down. This method has never failed so far as I have smooth flowing drainage after each application. If you have problems with clogged kitchen sinks or drains, you should try this method out.

I have the problem of getting rid of my acnes ever since I was young. I have tried many products on the market but nothing seemed to help. To visit a skin specialist for treatments would be quite costly. It could cost up to a few hundred dollars per visit and it was beyond my means.
You can say that it was sheer luck that I stumbled upon the authority on acne one day while surfing the internet. The website was so comprehensive that it provided all the available acne related products on one website. Not only did I get to find out more on the safety, efficiency, quality and company background of the products that are suitable for my skin, I get to buy best value products which I can save a lot of money.
One product that caught my attention most is Acnexus. The testimonials that I read was so convincing that I had decided to get one for myself. This All Natural Acne Treatment scrub does not contain any of those mineral oils, alcohols, parabens, harsh soaps or benzoyl peroxide which can be harmful if used long term. The 27 all natural anti-acne ingredients not only cleanse, exfoliate, repair, renew, revitalize, moisturize, supplement and nourish the skin, it comes as an all-in-one product. Can you imagine how much I have saved up by not having to purchase individual steps products as most other companies offered? If you need a solution for acnes but have a tight budget, I would recommend you to try out Acnexus.

I will spend my time hunting for great food within my small island of Penang during most of my weekends and blog about it to share with my readers. Many people inclusive our local Penangites were not aware that some little corners of the island can have some of the best food and atmosphere around that even a 5-star hotel would not be able to provide. In fact, the pricing for the food could well save most of us quite a bomb.
Having too much food and fun outside from home most of the time can be quite unhealthy for my ever increasing weight. Sometimes, I will just dig into some great recipes and get some healthy food prepared for my family during weekends. Firstly, I can save a lot of time and money in driving out with the price increase in fuel. Secondly, I can gather the whole family and friends under one roof to have a mini weekend gathering.
I sure did have lots of fun time to show my culinary skills. Maybe some of you can also plan some of these wonderful experiences by coming out with great food to impress your friends and family.

What would you do when you have just being informed that your regional boss and his wife would be dropping by your area and would want to visit your family for dinner in a few months’ time? Do you feel panic and get stressed out easily? Most of us would be as we would be in a dilemma of deciding what would be the best dishes to be set in your dining menu to impress both of them.
Of course there would the beverages to worry about too. You would not want to have all the arrays of nice food displayed on the dining table and yet you are serving them with plain water. You have to think about getting some red and white wine to accompany the red and white meat served. Sometimes, trying to get your hands on branded bottles of wine would be rather costly and not within your dinner budget. You might want to consider some that are produced by some local wineries and yet they are amongst the best in the world.
Have you heard about Gold Medal Wine Club? By joining them as a member, you will receive two outstanding wines each month right up to your doorstep. On top of that, you can also receive up to 45% off Winery-Direct Prices on reorders of half or full cases. Isn’t that a great way to get two bottles of top medals awarded wine of the month so conveniently delivered?
