  • What Your Dream Kitchen Needs : Function, Mood, Harmony

    If you ever get the opportunity to design your dream kitchen, consider making sure it has the following characteristics. · The latest energy-efficient, best-brand appliances. You want appliances that last and make the kitchen a joy to work within. · A plethora of storage space. Easy-to-reach storage, easy-to-use storage, and easy-to-clean storage. · Expansive countertop. Work surfaces impervious to staining, cutting, and burning—and that clean up easily. · Flooring that is gentle on the feet and easy to clean. · All-day sunlight and bright lighting at night. · A cozy feel and style so the kitchen becomes a focus of family togetherness. Three Guidelines to consider: Function, Mood, and Harmony. Function: almost everything is devoted to function. While mood and harmony are involved, too, the emphasis is on function. Not surprising when you consider that the kitchen is, in essence, a workshop. The kitchen may be considered the "heart of the home." This room is perfect for on-the-go family hangout, with several seating arrangements for snacks, meals, homework, entertainment, and conversation. Mood: What is your preference? Contemporary mood—a dramatic mélange of stainless steel, glass, Corian, and concrete where everything is glossy and sleek. County: warm, cozy haven of natural wood, brick, woven baskets, and hand-painted ceramic tile. Once you have decided the mood, the next step is deciding on furniture to match the mood. Kitchen furniture is a bit different than other rooms. Consisting of, appliances, countertops, chairs, perhaps a table, and cabinetry. The shape of the kitchen will, of course, depend upon the size and shape of the space available. In most homes, a large, separate room is devoted to the kitchen. Work Triangle: Regardless of the size or shape of the kitchen, these three elements stove, sink and refrigerator are usually arranged in a triangle that we call the basic work triangle. In effect, this work triangle establishes the traffic patterns in a well-planned kitchen. By arranging them in a triangle, you minimize the walking distance required when preparing a meal.

  • Everything You Need to Know to Grill like an Expert. Tips for the perfect meal on the grill

    Instead of hit and miss when it comes to getting the perfect grilled meal, here are a few tips and tricks to keep in mind. Getting the perfect grilled meal is a wonderful way to spend the summer meals outside but grilling can also great all year long. What foods can be grilled? Most foods that can be cooked inside are fine to grill outside as well. Grilling is perfect for steak, chicken, fish, vegetables and even some fruits. Although there are a variety of methods and techniques for grilling, here are the basics Always keep your grill clean Before you begin cooking, heat your grill to the appropriate temperature. Coal cooking will take about 45 minutes of pre-heating. Thick ash on the coals indicates low heat; a light grey ash indicates medium heat, and glowing red means high heat. Put three coals on one side and one layer on the other to give you hotter and cooler zones for cooking. Check your heat zones with your hand -- place it palm-down at cooking height over the grill area you want to check and see how long you can keep it there. Five seconds is low heat, four seconds is medium heat, three seconds is medium-high heat, and two seconds is high heat. Direct cooking, place the food right over the flame or coals. Use indirect grilling for more delicate foods. Keep a hot zone for searing and marking Keep a medium/cooler zone for cooking the food through. Use marinades for direct grilling to lock in flavor and moisture. Marinades without sugar can be added throughout cooking. If your marinade contains sugar, add it at the end of cooking, so it doesn't burn. Check doneness with a meat thermometer or with pressure. Then, press the steak with your index finger or the flat of your fork -- a rare steak is soft, a medium steak is firm but yielding, and a well steak is firm. And above all else, remember to let steaks rest 5-10 minutes before serving.

  • 10 Ways to Have a Better Relationship with Food to Feel Better

    1. Carbohydrates are your brain's food; if your brain is well fed, you can think about how you will provide your muscles, bones, and all the other body systems. Thinking is an energy process and allows you to care better for your body with clarity. 2. Take absolute control of what goes in your body and have complete responsibility for what that food will provide your body, whether good or bad. Everything you put into your body has a result on your health 3. Although we live in a society with an abundance of food choices and more quantity than most, it does not mean that there is quality in all food. Step back and respect what you eat; appreciate it for the good it will provide the body. Not all food is nutrient equal. Separate the food that will bring power to your body's cells from the food that provides your mind with "pleasures." 4. Protein provides your body with amino acids that help build tissue, including muscle, bone, organs, and blood—the protein in meat, dairy, and vegetables. We do not need as much protein as we provide our bodies. By eating more plant proteins compared to the number of animal proteins, we cut out the fats in large quantities. 5. Never leave the mirror with a bad image; stay and find something positive in the image you see. When we find ourselves in a self-image funk, we tend to eat emotionally. As a result, we can make bad decisions during this low point in our mood. 6. Find your poison and cut it out or cut it back from your diet. Try different ones to track until you find your key. A food poison is abundant in your diet that hinders any weight loss and not helping with the healthy lifestyle you want—examples: sodium, sugar, Saturated fats, cholesterol, etc. 7. At least 65% of any meal should be plant-based food. Try mixing cooked and raw foods into your diet. Adding small amounts of high-fat proteins to the large part of the plant will help control the increase in vitamin intake, lower doses of 'bad' fats, increase fiber, natural detoxification, and protein intake adjusted to your body's needs. 8. Discuss all the foods that go into your body. This food is entering into something that you should cherish after all. Your body relies on food to be healthy. You depend on the body to provide life and movement, to house your spirit, and laugh. Ask all foods: Where it came from? What purpose does it have? How much energy does it provide? One crucial question is: Does it only a pleasure to ease discomfort from the mind while bringing ill effects to the body? Would it be better to eat food that allows the body to be healthy to enable that health to be used away from the table and out into a world…..like wearing a sexy dress or hiking or swimming, or dining out with friends…and feeling fabulous! 9. Block out the noise and own your decisions. Information that bounces in from media, friends, and loved ones can block your instincts about what is best for you. You already know how to take care of yourself. You are not like anyone else; although it is a great thing to learn each day, the trick is taking the information you gather and personalizing it to reflect your goals. 10. Building muscle takes time, consistency, and constant reflection of the dedication to you you. Also, this applies strongly to building self-esteem and confidence, wellness and health, and awareness and understanding. So stick with it and hone your skills every day.

  • What are The Must Have Anti-aging Cream Ingredients for Really Vibrant Skin?

    Aging, environment, and diet affect our skin from head to toe. Yet, applying a moisturizer, eye cream, serum, exfoliant, cleanser, night cream, and so on seems overwhelming. How many beauty products do we need? We cannot change aging and sometimes cannot change the environment, but we can eat healthier to keep our skin looking young and vibrant. We also can add anti-aging products that contain collagen, retinol, and hyaluronic acid. Collagen: is a structural protein found in the body's located in the body's connective tissues. Collagen is in connective tissue such as cartilage, bones, tendons, ligaments, and skin. Collagen is responsible for skin strength and elasticity, and degradation may lead to wrinkles as we age. Nutritional sources include bone broth, egg whites, chicken, fish, dairy products, carrots, and apricots. Retinol: is a form of Vitamin A shown to rejuvenate the effects of aging. Retinol helps speed up removing dead skin cells that can lead to dry skin. With the help of retinol, your skin will be more hydrated, smooth, and plump. Nutritional sources include liver, meats, sweet potatoes, milk, cheese, and broccoli. Hyaluronic Acid: Hyaluronic acid is a clear, gooey substance naturally produced by your body. Hyaluronic acid is in your skin, connective tissue, and eyes. In an anti-aging cream, Hyaluronic acid can reduce wrinkles, redness, and dermatitis when applied to the skin. Nutritional sources include bone broth, oranges, tofu, kale, red wine, and starchy vegetables. Collagen. (2022, October 9). In Wikipedia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collagen Retinol.

  • Quick Guide for using Supplements

    Since I became a Nutrition Consultant, a common question is 'What supplements should I take?" "You can call anything a dietary supplement, even something you grow in your backyard" ~ Donna Porter, RD PhD. Congressional Research Service. People often take supplements as an insurance policy against problems caused by poor diets. Although multivitamins and mineral supplements may help fill in some of the nutrition gaps caused by poor food habits, they cannot make a lousy diet good. Dietary supplements come in many forms: Vitamins and minerals (Vit C, E, selenium) Herbs(botanicals) (Dong Quai, ginseng Proteins and amino acids (Shark cartilage, creatine) Fats (Fish oils, DHA) Other plant extracts (Garlic capsules, fiber, cranberry) Adding supplements to your diet should be a personal choice. Unfortunately, many advertisements for supplements will provide information and health claims that are not approved and most likely have no scientific research to back them up. It is wise to research on your own before quickly deciding that a supplement is right for you. When purchasing a supplement, finding out who makes the product is good. What research has been done? What types of side effects may the product have? What is the dose of the product needed to achieve the health benefits? This is information that does not have to be on the package. Sometimes it is easier and cheaper to eat a particular food and receive the same health benefit as the product claims to provide. Make sure to discuss with your doctor any supplements you take. What should you consider when buying a supplement? Because the potency of most vitamins may be decreased by sunlight, ensure the container is dark enough to shield the contents properly. Supplements should be kept in a cool, dark place. Know what type of supplement you need. Make sure you understand the ingredients in the supplement. Multivitamins are a good choice if you are not sure about other supplements. Don't buy a supplement just because you heard it on the news or in an advertisement. Supplements are just as personal as your workout and diet. The Multivitamin "I don't want to disparage people who take multivitamins — it's their choice as a consumer," Dr. Neuhouser said. "What we're presenting is the science showing it's neither beneficial nor harmful. If they want to choose to spend their dollars elsewhere, this might be a good place to do so. Perhaps they can buy more fruits and vegetables." Vitamin D: Sources: fish, eggs, fortified milk, and cod liver oil. The sun also contributes significantly to the daily production of vitamin D, and as little as 10 minutes of exposure is thought to be enough to prevent deficiencies. Function: vitamin D is to maintain normal blood calcium and phosphorus levels. In addition, vitamin D aids in the absorption of calcium, helping to form and maintain strong bones. It is used, alone or in combination with calcium, to increase bone mineral density and decrease fractures. Recently, research also suggests that vitamin D may protect from osteoporosis, hypertension (high blood pressure), cancer, and several autoimmune diseases. Omega-3 fatty acids Sources: fish oil and certain plant/nut oils. Fish oil contains both docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), while some nuts (English walnuts) and vegetable oils (canola, soybean, flaxseed/linseed, olive) contain alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). Functions: There is evidence from multiple studies supporting the intake of recommended amounts of DHA and EPA in the form of dietary fish or fish oil supplements lower triglycerides and reduces the risk of death, heart attack, dangerous abnormal heart rhythms, and strokes in people with known cardiovascular disease slow the buildup of atherosclerotic plaques ("hardening of the arteries") and lowers blood pressure slightly. However, high doses may have harmful effects, such as an increased risk of bleeding. Although similar benefits are proposed for alpha-linolenic acid, scientific evidence is less compelling, and beneficial effects may be less pronounced. Calcium Sources: Milk, yogurt, hard cheeses, fortified cereals, and spinach. Function: Essential for bone growth and strength, blood clotting, muscle contraction, and the transmission of nerve signals Choline (Vitamin B complex) Sources: Milk, liver, eggs, peanuts. Functions: Plays a key role in the production of cells and neurotransmitters. Chromium Sources: Meats, poultry, fish, and some cereals Function: Help control blood sugar levels. Copper Sources: Seafood, nuts, seeds, wheat bran cereals, whole grains. Function: Important in the metabolism of iron Fiber Sources: Bran cereal, peas, lentils, black beans, fruits, and vegetables. Function: Help with digestion and the maintenance of blood sugar levels; reduces the risk of heart disease. Folic Acid (Folate) Sources: Dark, leafy vegetables; enriched and whole grain bread; fortified cereals. Function: Key for developing cells, protein metabolism, and heart health; in pregnant women, it helps prevent birth defects. Iodine Sources: Processed foods and iodized salt Functions: Important in the production of thyroid hormones Iron Sources: Fortified cereals, beans, lentils, beef, and eggs. Functions: Key components of red blood cells, and many enzymes Magnesium Sources: Green leafy vegetables, Brazil nuts, almonds, soybeans, halibut, and quinoa Function: Help with heart rhythm, muscle and nerve function, and bone strength. Manganese Sources: Nuts, beans, other legumes, tea, and whole grains. Functions: Important in forming bones and some enzymes. Phosphorus Sources: Milk and other dairy products, peas, meat, eggs, some cereals, and bread Functions: Allow cells to function normally; help the body produce energy; key in bone growth. Potassium Sources: Sweet potato, bananas, yogurt, yellowfin tuna, and soybeans Functions: Important in maintaining normal fluid balance; helps control blood pressure; reduces the risk of kidney stones. Sodium Sources: Foods to which sodium chloride (salt) has been added, like salted meats, nuts, butter, and a vast number of processed foods. Functions: Important for fluid balance. Vitamin A Sweet potato with peel, carrots, spinach, and fortified cereals Functions: Necessary for normal vision, immune function, reproduction Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Sources: Whole grain, enriched, fortified products; bread; cereals. Functions: Allow the body to process carbohydrates and some protein. Vitamin C Sources: Red and green peppers, kiwis, oranges, strawberries, and broccoli. Functions: Antioxidant that protect against cell damage, boost the immune system, and form collagen in the body. Vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) Sources: Fortified cereals, sunflower seeds, almonds, peanut butter, and vegetable oils. Functions: Antioxidant that protect cells against damage. Vitamin K Sources: Green vegetables like spinach, collards, broccoli; brussels sprouts; cabbage. Functions: Important in blood clotting and bone health. Zinc Sources: Red meats, some seafood, and fortified cereals. Functions: Support the body's immunity and nerve function, which are essential in reproduction. As you can see food provides many of our needed Vitamins and Minerals. With proper diet and eating a vast variety of healthy foods your body will be able to gain nutrition it needs through your diet. When in doubt, allergies to certain foods or food intolerances, or the simple fact you dislike certain foods, a supplement can be added to the diet safely.

  • Getting to know fabric and the many uses in the home.

    Our homes and closets consist of many types of fabric. Through centuries fabrics have been used for interior design, clothes, and so much more. Fabric Glossary Basketweave This fabric is a plain-weave pattern of similar threads in both directions. When using extremely fine threads, you produce a smooth taffeta weave. When using thicker threads, you create a more textured basket weave. Brocade This heavy fabric features a raised design interwoven using the Jacquard method. Typically, richly ornamented, and the raised pattern contrasts in colors and surface with the background. Canvas This fabric is a coarse, cotton fabric in a plain weave often used for awnings, casual furniture upholstery, or slipcovers, and in just about any other application where coarse, heavy-duty material is appropriate. Variations of canvas include duck cloth and sailcloth. Chiffon This fabric is gossamer light, sheer, plain-weave fabric that was originally silk, but today may also be wool or synthetic. Chintz A general term for finely woven cotton cloth with a lustrous, shiny, bright surface, usually imprinted with a design. It became common once that " chintzy " denoted "cheap." That is not always the case, though. Chintz fabrics were used in some of the most luxurious European castles and manor houses and can be elegant and expensive. Chintz is made from cotton fabric subjected to a chemical treatment called glazing. This treatment, designed to make the fabric more resistant to dirt, also gives it a characteristic crispness, stiffness, and shininess. Chintz is often imprinted with a design but may be solid-colored too. They are used widely in upholstery, draperies, pillow covers, and slipcovers. Corduroy Typically made of cotton, a pile weave in which alternating loops of thread are sheared, producing a deep pattern of ridges and rows. CUT VELVET Firm fabric with a raised pattern woven in. Similar to brocade, but lighter in weight and reversible. Denim It's no stranger to you—look at your jeans. Realize that denim doesn't have to be blue. It's a coarse cotton cloth, usually woven using different-colored threads in a twill pattern—a casual fabric used as an informal upholstery fabric. Felt The traditional material for men's hats was produced not by weaving but by matting together woolen fibers through heat and pressure. The finished fabric is soft and smooth. They are used as an inexpensive upholstery material. Gabardine This fabric is a hard-finished wool fabric woven in a tight twill, diagonal pattern. Firm and durable, it is excellent for upholstery. Gauze This fabric is a plain-weave fabric with widely spaced yarns. If stiffened for use as casement curtains. Gingham Lightweight cotton fabric is woven of two different-colored yarns to produce a small pattern of squares, checks, or stripes. You probably use gingham in your clothing. You can also use it in draperies, bedspreads, and trimmings. Jacquard A type of machine-weaving method that permits the introduction of different patterns and designs within the weave itself. Fabrics produced this way are also referred to as "Jacquards." Mercerizing The chemical treatment of cotton fibers stiffens them and adds luster. MUSLIN This fabric is a cotton fabric in which uncolored threads are weaved in a tight, plain pattern. Organdy is extremely fine lightweight threads—a diaphanous fabric often used as a translucent drapery material. Percale is slightly heavier threads —a name you have often cherished in better sheets and pillowcases. Muslin is a normal grade of cotton thread. A bit stiff and rough to the touch, you probably won't select muslin as the finished material for upholstery. Sateen A cotton fabric looks similar to glazed chintz because it has a glossy look—the gloss results from the satin weave, producing a smooth front surface while leaving the back dull. Satin A type of weave in which the face of the fabric is shiny and smooth. Traditionally made of silk, today made with synthetic fibers. When using fine cotton threads, sateen is produced. Serge, best known as the fabric in the "blue serge suit," is a tightly woven version of gabardine, featuring a rugged, almost shiny surface. Extremely tough, it's a good fabric for a formal look in upholstery. Taffeta This weave involves similar threads in both directions, producing a slight sheen on both surfaces. TERRYCLOTH This fabric is known in the form of terry towels or bathrobes. It's a cotton fabric with a loose pile weave that features uncut loops of yarn, producing a rough, highly textured surface. Because of its high absorbency, this material is used as upholstery material in a bathroom, bath house, or similar wet areas. However, it dirties easily, stretches, snags easily, and is not a long-lasting material. Ticking The striped cotton fabric you see in old-fashioned pillows and mattresses. The stripes may be woven or printed. While not a usual material for finished upholstery, it is sometimes used successfully in some modern casual settings. More often, it will cover the unfinished piece, and you will have your selected fabric upholstered over it. Tweed This woolen fabric features a slightly fuzzy yarn and coarse weave that produces a multicolored, textured surface. Initially, a hand-spun fabric made along the river Tweed in Scotland, tweeds are machine-made today, but the best still come from Scotland. Rugged, durable, and attractive, tweed fabrics will be among your meaningful choices in upholstery. Twill A pattern of weaving that produces a diagonal pattern in the fabric. Denim and serge are both twill fabrics. If the design is systematically reversed, you make a herringbone pattern. Velvet Pile velvet is a tightly woven pile weave fabric that produces a soft, smooth surface. Cut velvet is when the flat surface of the pile is carved to create a design effect. Voile This fabric is a thin, delicate, diaphanous fabric featuring a plain weave in which the same thread is in both directions. It can be made of any lightweight thread, including silk, cotton, wool, and many synthetics, and used for translucent casement curtains.
