Cooking tips

Buying an Oven : If you need to purchase a gas oven or range, look for one with an automatic, electric ignition system. An electric ignition saves gas-because a pilot light is not burning continuously.

When you are travelling, you should have a quick think about where your food has come from. When/if it is locally produced, your food is likely to be tastier, better for the local economy and fresher.

Dieting 101

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi (or glycaemic index) diet is reliant on the gi (or glycaemic index), a list showing types of food and a score illustrating the ease with which the carbohydrates of the food gets changed to sugar in the dieters blood stream. The claim is that slow acting foods (ie those foods with a low Glycaemic index score), keep you satisfied for a longer period of time and help to consume less food without feeling you are missing out.
It is also beneficial for diabetics, as the low GI types of food are useful in managing increases in glucose secretion.
