Practical and natural!
Welcome to my Donna’s did you know diary for this month and pleased to share the following with you.
Here’s what I learned for this month.
1) Something about homing pigeons?
They use their sense of smell to help them navigate.
2) The knives you need in your kitchen?
A chef’s knife,
A paring knife,
And a serrated knife.
3) About different types of Ketchup?
There is tomato ketchup and ketchup made out of papaya.
4) And this may not be mosquito season but here are 2 tips for next year.
Musquitoes thrive on those wearing dark colours.
They also enjoy feasting on those who have had a beer or more.
5) ant to give an ironed look to your clothes in a hurry?
Pop your clothes into the clothes dryer for just a few minutes and presto!
All done!
6) Rat versus camel?
A rat can last longer without water than a camel.
7) About your stomach
Your stomach has to produce a new layer of mucus every two weeks or it will digest itself.
8) Drop a raisin in a glass of champagne?
A raisin dropped in a glass of fresh champagne will bounce up and down continuously from the bottom of the glass to the top.
9) About a duck’s quack?
A duck’s quack doesn’t echo. No one knows why.
10) About scorpions?
If one places a tiny amount of liquor on a scorpion, it will instantly go mad and sting itself to death. (Who was the sadist who discovered this??)
