However, the study of 52,700 men and women, which was published in American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, wasn’t all good news for vegetarians. It was discovered, too, that vegetarians were more likely to have colorectal cancer.

This was surprising as it seems to contradict previous evidence that eating lots of red meat increases the risk of developing the disease.

Plymouth University researchers carried out memory tests on 40 volunteers, asking them to listen to a phone call and recall names and places.

Doodlers performed 29% better than non-doodlers, the team found.
Experts said doodling stopped people from daydreaming, which was a more taxing diversion, and so was good at helping people focus on mundane tasks.
BRBR
During the study, half of the volunteers were asked to colour in shapes on a piece of paper while they listened to a 2.5 minute telephone message.

It might help even more if your doodles are related to what you are trying to learn or remember.

Don’t believe Ryan Seacrest, Britney Spears is NOT pregnant.

Huh?

If you missed the memo, apparently the “American Idol” host dropped the Britney pregnancy bomb on his Los Angeles radio show Wednesday morning, insisting the news came from a “reliable source.

Don’t you just love it when you find a tip that makes your time in the kitchen so much better? I’ve been sharing some of my best kitchen-related tips and strategies.
While melting chocolate in a microwave can be more convenient than using a double boiler, it can quickly become a disaster.

Switch feeding, also known as the “burp and switch technique” is a method of breastfeeding that encourages increased milk production as well as calorie-rich hind milk and longer feedings.

Volunteering can be a rewarding family activity, but if you have reluctant children, then giving back to those less fortunate can be a challenge.

The key to motivating your kids to give back is to make the experience as fun as possible.

Yesterday was one of those days where I just had to get something tangible done in the morning. Lucky for me, I choose to work on our home inventory, and it gave me the frugal boost that I really needed.
You may have seen some of my posts about creating a home inventory in the Home blog.
