Too Much To Do; So Little Time...

Video of the Day – Washing Chicken, Farting and Sweating

It’s amazing what you learn each day.

1) Don’t wash your chicken – washing causes bacteria to spray (fly/spread) around your kitchen. Cook to 165°F (74℃) to kill bacteria.

2) The average person farts 10 times a day. Healthy number is 10-20. More if eating “gassy” foods (garlic, onions, spicy foods, beer). Average volume = 0.5 qt to 1.5 qt per day. If no change in your life and you’re farting too much see your doctor.

3) Sweating cools your body. If you don’t sweat you can overheat; dress in light enough clothing.

If you recall from Remodel, Part 26: Phase 3 New Hardwood Stairs and Loft and Remodel, Part 28: New Handrail, Brent had ripped out old carpeting and installed new hardwood floors and stairs.

In addition, he made us a new handrail.

Then stain guy came in and stained the loft floor…

and the stairs…

After the stain dried, he coated everything with a top coat. Check out the “after”.

Here is the before and after of the handrail…

We love it! Our Christmas decorations look great hanging there, too! Before…

and after…

It’s so strange. We’ve lived in this house for 17 years. It has only been such a short time since we did the remodels and I can barely remember what it was like before. Weird!

So this brings to a close Phase 3. Phase 4 coming soon!

Whenever you’d made a big change, do you have a hard time remembering the “before” ?
