    Surge in berry consumption prompts potential dimethoate restriction

    I grow my own raspberries , strawberries and mulberries , never spray them with pesticides , they are organic fruit . Apparently blueberries are very easy to grow .

    Nice n easy fudge for quick dessert

    Why is your recipe in mls of sugar and butter , in stead of grams or cups ? Also asking for trouble as there is not any ingredient that could be only a little bit good for your health . Very bad for diabetics and people with cardiac issues . In particular for the older generation , we should...

    Shoppers livid over overpriced toastie after crusty reveal: 'You got robbed!'

    I do not like many of the franchise cafes, you get very little for what you pay for . That toastie on a thin white piece of bread with a slice of ham , you could easy make it yourself for less than $1.- at home . Coffeeclub serves very weak and cheap coffee , I don’t know why they call it the...

    This one small switch helped shed 40kg—and it had nothing to do with the gym!

    In my opinion to lose weight and stay healthy does not come out of a bottle . And it is not a diet either , change to a healthy lifestyle is the way to go . Less carbs and sugar . Stay active , you could join a walking group and it is free or walk with a friend , don’t forget your water bottle ...
