Tips for Saving Space in Your Pantry

Jul 29 2014

It really does not matter how large or small your pantry; to make the most of the space you have, your pantry needs to be effectively organised. You need to be quite ruthless in determining what stays and what goes, and take advantage of storage solutions outside of your home (such as storage at a Fort Knox Storage facility), for items that are used infrequently or really do not belong in your pantry. Here are some great tips how saving space can be quick, easy and budget friendly. Getting started… Pull everything out of your pantry To get really organised, you need to remove the entire contents of the pantry and commit to disposing of everything with an expired use by date. Items that are not out-of-date, but are open and look to be past their best, should go too. Clean while the pantry is empty With a completely empty…

Jul 25 2014

While it’s important to prepare your home for storm season when wild winds and heavy rain can cause havoc, regular maintenance will ensure your home is well prepared for bad weather conditions in and out of storm season.

Sleep Who doesn’t want more of that? The ease of sleep after having sex is caused by the rush of hormones that occur during orgasms (and of course the physical exhaustion would help). 3. Stress and anxiety relief You can thank those wonderful endorphin’s…

Menulog Review + Giveaway

Jul 18 2014

Enjoying a delicious take away meal from somewhere other than a pizza shop happens few and far between in our house. This is usually due to us trying to save money or just not knowing what we feel like. Pizza is usually our pick because it is only $4.95 a pizza and that is pretty hard to beat. Up until a few weeks ago I had never heard of Menulog and I wish I had found it sooner. It allows me to search my area and find a selection of restaurants that I can order from online and if I don’t feel like leaving the house I can have it delivered. A lot of the restaurants have got deals as well like 20% off or buy 2 get one free, etc. Genius really! Menulog is free and so easy to use and only requires a couple of steps before you…
