I think that washing our hands is an habit that must be taught since very early age. A small big hygienic gesture that can do a lot for health – our health and others. There are times when washing our hands is essential:

• before touching food
• before a meal
• after using the bathroom
• after cleaning the house
• after touching in animals, even our own pets
• after sneezing, coughing or blowing our nose
• after an outdoor activity like gardening, playing in the park or walking the dog
• after visiting someone sick

To make washing our hands more effective there are a few rules that should be followed:

• Use tepid and running water
• Use a soap all over our hands, rubbing for 10 to 15 seconds not forgetting between the fingers and wrists
• wash in abundant water to remove all the soap
• Dry very well with a clean towel (in public spaces use only disposable towels)

Teach this habit to your kids since they are very young, this will prevent them from getting some avoidable diseases.

Here I am again for another Light Recipe. I found this low-sugar recipe through MyRecipes.com site. As you probably have noticed from past recipes I love dessert recipes and I like to post them here once they are light or low sugar, but today I decided to bring here a low sugar snack.

Ricotta Raspberry Canapés

Enjoy it!

Due to ageing and diseases some people will need medical care and medical products some time on their life. I personally have a close experience with that because my father has Alzheimer and is in bed with adult diapers, washed and fed by my mother.

Being in bed for long periods and in my father’s case, for the rest of his life, there are some special cares that must be taken to improve quality of life and future injures.

• A totally electrical bed was bought
• Hygienic products, creams and ointments are daily used
• Pharmaceuticals products are taken several times a day
• Wipes are used in every diaper change

For those that still have some mobility there are other necessary products like:

• Bathroom accessories
• Mobility Aids
• Seats Lifts

All these products as well as other important accessories and products can be found in DME (Disposable Medical Express).

Sea salty water, exposure to the sun and swimming pool baths are pleasures that leave marks on an unprotected hair. In order to have only good memories of the Summer, some measures and prevention should be taken.

This week he had very good weather. The sun was out, very hot, no wind, it was better than in August, some people took advantage of this good weather and went camping this weekend. Living in a country where snow is not a normal presence, winter can be the time for indoor activities so we just have to use the good weather and have fun outdoors.

If you leave in a country where it snows very regularly, there are a lot of winter activities that can be done outside: Snowboard, Downhill Skiing or Snowshoeing are some of those activities. Remember, snow is approaching so prepare your skate, your skis and check your snowmobile exhaust, be prepared for Winter Sports.

Whether you are an executive looking forward to decorate your office or a work from home person willing to decorate your home office, spacify.com has excellent Office Furniture that will fit in both executive offices and home offices.

Working space must be very well chosen once we will be spending a lot of time there. Work by itself can be very stressful, if we lack furniture or have unattractive furniture around us, work will be even more stressful.

For me functionality is the main quality to take into consideration when choosing Executive Office Furniture or Home Office Furniture. Shape and color comes in a second plan.

For instance this Home Office Furniture is really attractive. The glass desk with steel legs is just adorable. Although it has no drawers attached, the small drawers module works just fine. The cabinet against the wall is enough to file some papers and articles we might need for our daily work.

For a executive office this desk is my favorite. I personally work in one similar, it’s very functional and with more space than a rectangular one. Those two file modules seem to be useful to file papers, I would only add a big cabinet to file folders and other material.

Besides office furniture spacify.com also sells other modern contemporary furniture for bedrooms, dining rooms, bathroom, kitchen and outdoor. There is a kid’s special section.

Now that summer is over and autumn is already here we have to take a look at our wardrobe and check what can still be used and what needs to be replaced. A few more or less pounds can be an excuse to go shopping for new clothes.

What about footwear? Footwear usually wears out during a season and can’t be used next year so it’s time for us to take a look at all our autumn and winter footwear to see if they need to be replaced.

If you need new footwear take a look at footwearetc.com and see for yourself the new fall arrivals for this season. Clogs, shoes, boots, slippers and outdoors are some of the footwear available on this site. At footwearetc.com you have available a wide range of brands like: Geox, Dansko, Clarks or Finn Comfort among many others.

Happy shopping!!
