If you have back pain, neck pain, stomach pain... nothing better than putting heat on the pain to soothe it. What if you don't have a hot water bottle on hand? A homemade heating pad, just as good! For that, nothing could be simpler. We take a stocking and fill it with rice. Place it in the oven and let it heat up for a few minutes, depending on the desired heat. Super…simple.
Tired of shedding all the tears in your body during an onion peeling session? To avoid crying, before tackling them, just place them for 30 seconds in the microwave, and the weeping willow effect disappears! Why ? Because the heat has freed them of the substance that makes us cry.
It doesn't look like that, but a sponge is a nest of bacteria! And yet it is with it that we wipe the table, wash the dishes... If we are the type to forget to change it, we can always put it in the microwave often. We clean it with a little soap, we rinse, we soak it in clear water, then we heat it for 30 seconds. It destroys germs. But we do not forget – whatever the case – above all not to change the sponge regularly. A study relayed by Le Parisien indeed reminds us that 80% of sponges in homes are above the acceptable contamination threshold... And reminds us that two very distinct sponges are needed:one for the dishes, the other for cleaning the table!
