How to get rid of the fridge smell

There is one thing I like about our kitchen the most, it’s our fridge.

When I was just starting in life, this means no good money and a very small room up in a dirty building, I always dreamed and thought about the day I’d have a wife, a big apartment and a nice kitchen with a great looking fridge.

This happened to me some three years ago, but the thing that was lacking me was a nice fridge.

I made up my mind to look for a great one and to be ready to spend about two thousand dollars to get one.

Yes, that’s the amount of money I was ready to spend.

I finally, after a long time of saving and taking some loans from friends and wife’s parents, I bought a Philips!

It’s not very known in the US, but it’s one of the best fridges you can get in the market right now.

I did a lot of research and read a lot of reviews and then decided on this Philips fridge.

It coasted us more than two thousand bucks, but for this amount of money, we got more than we have dreamed of.

Anyway, here I was with this great fridge and I’ve filled it with great food, but after some few moments, it stunk like a dirty raccoon!

It was terrible.

Here is what I’ve managed to do with my wife to get rid of that smell:

Place a little bit of salt near the eggs.

This is a great trick, just fill a little container with ground rock salt and it will absorb the excess humidity in your fridge.

Humidity is the primary cause of the smell; the germs are going to like it in there if they are provided with a humid environments.

The second thing you can do is to cut a lemon in half and put it in your fridge too.

This is a fantastic way because the lemon is going to absorb the excess smell and humidity too.

These were the tricks that did it for us.

Try them and see for your self.

The best appliances to cook vegies

Here are the best appliances I use every single day to cook my vegetables and to do most of the family cooking.

The first thing you need to have got in your kitchen is a rice machine!

You simply can’t survive without it!

You can’t have that tender and chewy rice without having a good rice machine.

There are many brands in the market, but the best ones are made in the USA, they are a bit expensive, but from my experience, the price tend to be the least thing to worry about, because if you add even two hundred dollars and you got a great working and durable machine, you are the one who will have less troubles and headaches with it later on.

Think of it as an investment.

The second appliance you really need to have is a pressure cooker.

You need to get a pressure cooker, it’s a must.

How can you cook those beans and legumes if you do not have a good pressure cooker, it’s the first appliance we thought about when we moved to our new apartment.

The third kitchen appliance you definitely need is a bread machine.

If you care a tiny little bit about your health, you should be making whole wheat bread your own.

Bread machines are very common in department stores, but they tend to be a little expensive, however, if you think of it as an investment, you are going to see that the more bread you eat and the more the bread machine is going to seem like a bargain.

The fourth appliance to have in the kitchen is a steamer.

That’s not a must have, but I prefer to have it in my kitchen.

When you are making your vegies and good salads, you need to steam vegetables.

Unfortunately, if you do it using the traditional method, the vegetables are going to lose a lot of their nutrients and you will end up with a fad tasting vegies!

We have a small child at home and we want him to grow knowing of the importance of eating vegetables every single day.

The best way to make him eat his carrots and broccoli is to make them taste great.

A steamer then will become a necessity for a family with small children.

I’ve read that if your kids grew up thin and healthy, they will stay that way for their whole lives!

Energy efficient? Is it true?

When I was looking for a new fridge, the first thing I thought about was to look for an energy efficient one.

I’ve read a lot of reviews about this and I’ve found that the most energy efficient brands were X and Z and Y!!

I was very happy about these results and was ready to make my purchase!

However, I’ve read one thing that annoyed me a lot; it was this: it was the manufacturers who attributed the energy star to their products!

What!!!!????

This means that when a manufacturer is going to make a new product, he’s going to either say to himself: “should I give this an energy star or no” or “I’m going to be honest with my clients” ?

I don’t think that most manufacturers are going to think throw the second way of thinking, most manufactures have got salaries to pay and margins to make, they are going to think of the best and most catchy argument to sell you their products!

That’s why, when you want to buy an energy efficient product, the first thing you need to be doing is looking at forums and amazon reviews for the most honest reviews.

Here is the thing you need to know: some merchants websites are going to write positive reviews themselves for you to buy the product from them.

The best reviews can be found at amazon, it’s what I trust the most.

My personal story with the kitchen

I know, this will sound like a boring thing for you, but I’m going to tell it anyway.

When I was single and living alone, I was a very lazy person, I couldn’t go to the kitchen and make a sandwich, all what I thought of when I was hungry is to go out and get some chips or a doughnut.

But when I find the love of my life, my wife, and we settled down, the first thing I start to worry about is my health.

I was very over weight and I couldn’t walk a few meters without having to breathe loudly and look like a mess.

My wife’s love pushed me to start looking very realistically at the way I was eating and the foods I had the habit to like.

When I think about it now, I start wondering how I stayed alive all these years.

I was doing terrible things for my health and I didn’t have the least idea of the consequences of my action.

I was driving myself to a near death.

My wife took me one day by the hand, and she showed me my pants, it was huge.

I hated her for this, but at the same time, I liked her honesty and I decided to take my health in hand and to be a great husband to her.

I started with taking some cooking lessons, they were very informative but I didn’t have the self-confidence to go inside the kitchen and apply what I’ve learned.

Soon, I made the decision to buy some good cooking appliances and to embark in this adventure.

I thought to myself that buying expensive equipment and not using them is a crime.

It was this that pushed me to work more on my cooking abilities and helped me become more self-confident.

Just take the first step and you are going to have great results and feelings about your self.
