Great Environmentally Friendly Beer! - 09/30/10 08:59 AM
I read recently that Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA ($10 for a six pack) was an environmentally friendly beer.  The company is an innovator in sustainable business practices.  The brewery is now solar-powered as well!  The pale aile plays up slightly bitter and super-floral American hops.  Try it! idx search - Waukesha WI Real Estate LOOKING FOR A PROPERTY?  I CAN HELP YOU FIND YOUR NEXT HOME!

When and How To Salt Foods Correctly! - 09/25/10 09:52 AM

Enhance the natural taste of your ingredients, not the saltiness, by adding a pinch at these key stages:
 
1.  When sweating vegetables.  Salt draws moisture from food, helping it break down, unlocking the flavor.
2.  Before grilling or cooking meat.  Give it a healthy sprinkling.  Salt helps uncoil the proteins, bringing out the natural juices.
3.  After adding dairy.  Cream and unsalted butter counteract salt.  Try adding a little extra to a n oversalted dish to save it.
4.  With sweets.  It makes desserts and sweet foods, like watermelon, taste even better.
 
I usually don't use salt, but … (17 comments)

Did you Know? By Kristin Johnston,Waukesha County Realtor,Buyer's Agent! - 09/23/10 09:48 AM
It is no secret that resting cucumber slices on your eyelids can reduce dark circles and puffy skin.  However, did you know that potato slices are just as effective, thanks to an enzyme called catecholase.  Also, the spuds keep longer in your pantry, so you are more likely to have one around.  Next time, try treating sleepy peepers with this trick :-) BONUS----cut 2 1/2 inch thick rounds from a potato.  Lie back and place a slice on each closed eye for 10 to 20 minutes.  To get even more benefits, grate the potato and bundle the shreds in cheesecloth, then … (18 comments)

Move over cupcakes.  Bite size cake balls are the latest dessert craze!  We're talking serious sugar here, cake crumbs and frstong mixed together, rolled into balls, then dipped in icing, melted candy,nuts or chocoate.  Put them on a stick, and you've got a magical little conconction thats a combo doughnut hole, truffle and lollipop!  YUMMO!  Cake balls can now be found in upscale bakeries and gift catalogs.  These treats are the perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth without scarfing down a slab of layer cake.  But, I am sure most of us can't eat just one :-) idx search … (23 comments)

Wake Up At Work! - 09/17/10 10:13 AM
Here are 3 easy energy boosters for the 3pm work day slump: 1.  Do chair twists.  Stretching increases blood flow to muscles and helps you feel more alert.  To do this at your desk:  Sit up straight, lengthen your spine, twist to the left and hold on to the back of your chair for 10 seconds before switching sides. 2.  Pick peppermint.  Chew a stick of gum, eat a hard candy or sip some tea.  The scent is invigorating and provides an instant boost. 3.  Take a breath (or four).  Stop whatever you are doing, roll your shoulders back, open your … (9 comments)

Skip that bottle of Eau de Oooh La La and sprinkle yourself with nutmeg instead!  According to a recent study, men found the aromas of pumpkin pie and dough-nuts more appealing than the scents of florals and musks.  Even roasted meat ranked higher than the typical perfume scents of rose and baby powder.  And, what smells ranked highest for women?  Good & Plenty candies and cucumbers!  So, there you have it, lovebirds:  eau de cologne is out; baked goods and drugstore candy are in! idx search - Waukesha WI Real Estate LOOKING FOR A PROPERTY?  I CAN HELP YOU FIND YOUR … (25 comments)
