General kitchen advice

Try Eating Raw Food : Your body needs time to adjust and clean itself. Start including more fresh fruit, green salad, and green juice in your meals. Cut back on meat, dairy products, and cooked starchy foods. Try eating all raw one day per week, then two days. Or eat only two cooked foods per meal, then only one. You'll feel the difference.

Buy Seasonal Food : Food in season is the best you can buy. Apples taste better when they haven't been flown half way around the world. And buying in season encourages local producers who, boosted by factors like the rise in farmers' markets, are building a more sustainable food industry.

Buying an Oven : In gas appliances, look for blue flames; yellow flames indicate the gas is burning inefficiently and an adjustment may be needed. Consult your manufacturer or your local utility.

Cooking safety

Don't overload sockets - one plug per socket is the rule, especially if the appliance takes a lot of power (like a kettle).
Don't run extension cables across the floor as they can become worn.
Is the electric kettle leaking? This can be dangerous.

Don't put oven gloves or tea towels down on the cooker after you've used them.

Put all ingredients into a saucepan. Cover generously with water and bring to a boil. Simmer, half-covered, for about 1 hour, then strain. Other vegetables and flavorings, such as leeks, thinly pared lemon rind and allspice berries, can be added. Peelings from well-scrubed potatoes also give a particularly pleasant flavor to vegetable stock.
