It may sound strange to see me writing as if I do not trust pregnancy tests. That COULD be, because, according to the pregnancy tests I had at doctor’s offices, in the late 60’s, told me I was not pregnant, each time that I WAS pregnant. There are 2 …

I used to see a lot of commercials for air freshing products that plug into the walls and basically don’t have much of a scent to them but still manage to clean the air. I don’t smoke myself but for the longest time I was allowing my smoking friends …

We have been using the Santoor soft hand wash to wash our hands before we go for meals. It is a very good habit to use the hand wash instead of using the soaps to wash our hands. The soaps make our hands a little rough for …
