just a little kitchen tip!


I heard this one at work: after chopping onions, or garlic, or anything similarly pungent, use cold water to wash your hands. Warm water opens your pores and lets the smell into your skin, making it last longer; cold water keeps them (sort of) shut, so the smell cant get in. Makes sense!
