  My Kitchen When it comes to selecting a refrigerator for your home, you have a variety of options to choose from. One of the most common questions homeowners have is whether to go for a standard size fridge or a counter depth fridge.

As a homeowner in rural South Africa, I've become all too familiar with the struggles of unreliable electricity supply. With frequent load shedding and power outages, it's become clear that I need to take matters into my own hands and find a solution that will provide consistent and reliable energy for my five-bedroom, five-bathroom house. That solution is an off-the-grid solar system. Load shedding has become a constant frustration in my daily life.

Not only does it disrupt my work and personal life, but it also puts my appliances and electronics at risk of damage due to sudden power cuts. Additionally, the electric supply in rural South Africa can be unreliable and inconsistent. With a solar system that operates independently from the grid, I can have peace of mind knowing that I will always have a steady source of energy, regardless of what's happening with...

Stress is the number one cause of disease. An amazing amount of research has been done that proves that chemical reactions in your body caused by stress lead to many illnesses.
