A Review of 3M’s new Scotch™ premium kitchen scissors
I recently received this pair of newly launched kitchen scissors from 3M. I am not a stranger to kitchen scissors as my mother used them from when I was young, and I had been using another brand ever since I started cooking. I must say that a pair of strong, good hygienic scissors used to assist my cooking in the kitchen is of utmost importance, and sometimes, more than a pair is even better. I’ll tell you why later. You will enjoy the process of cooking meals much more if you have quartz, granite & marble kitchen worktops from Topsco. I do actually use my scissors daily, mostly in cutting…

Halal Food Ask to Add Pork

Then I read the instructions in poor English and lots of typo and noticed that it advised to ‘add pork!’ How inappropriate of a Halal product! Granted, the Kueh Chap is just noodles, but hhm, still, I’d say be careful to read labels if you’re Muslim.

Baby clothes and cloth diaper laundering system
So we’ve previously talked about my cloth diapering system, but what about how to wash them? Most new mums or would be mums that I talk to about cloth diapering are scared off about the laundering part of it. It just seemed overwhelming, but it really is not if you follow my system. This is how I do it, and it’s no harder than washing your clothes like normal. What you need: 1) Some pails at least 2 2) Cloth diaper safe detergent – I use Kiddiewash from Cosway 3) Washing machine 4) Hose in your toilet 5) Laundry nets I wash my diapers daily, but it can be done…
