Office Christmas Decorations on a Budget
I love Christmas time. Every year I get to use some creativity to design my office decorations from scratch. We do not usually spend a dime purchasing anything in the stores that are ready made, Â so I’d use some printables and paper and make something. Well, normally I do not make much besides just putting up a star or two, but this year we did acquire the Epson L800 and it is a dream for printing in colour at a budget. After printing so much I can’t count, the ink in the ink tank didn’t even budge much. I also use the laminating machine to make all the colours pop…

How to Cook Perfectly ‘Poached’ Eggs Without Fire
Recently, I decided that I wanted to eat eggs daily for breakfast at work rather than any wheat filled food. However, I usually do not have even 6 min at home to boil my eggs and I do not have any stove at my work place. So what do I do in times of need? Cook ”poached’ eggs, or some people call this 3/4 boiled eggs, without nothing but hot water and an air tight container. It is perfect when the egg whites are white but the york is still runny. <a href=”https://www.flickr.com/photos/leona/15646125059″ title=”Untitled by Leona, on Flickr”><img src=”https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7504/15646125059_d579ab28eb.jpg” width=”500″ height=”375″ alt=”Untitled”></a> Believe it or not, there are people that…
