Hey Everyone!

We revealed the 'NEW' look to our newsletters the other week, and last Friday we went live with our Gopher Library (previously known as Gopher Archives).

Stop by and take a peek - it's cleaner, crisper, and easy on the eyes. There is still more fun stuff in the works, and once they are live I will be a eager beaver to share them with you. Stay tuned, and enjoy all the new changes.

Hint 1: Boil Better Eggs

Adding vinegar to the water you use to boil or poach eggs can help you produce consistently good eggs.

This is because the protein in egg whites firm up more quickly when exposed to a more acidic liquid.

When you're poaching eggs, you want the egg whites to firm up as quickly as possible so that the eggs keeps their shape.

Using vinegar when boiling eggs can also speed up the coagulation, or clotting, of the egg whites. This can be useful if the shell cracks while the egg is being boiled.

Hint 2: Apple Cider Vinegar as a Facial Toner

Anecdotally, apple cider vinegar is claimed to help remedy skin conditions and reduce the signs of aging.

As such, many people like to use apple cider vinegar to make a skin tonic.

The general recipe is 1 part apple cider vinegar to 2 parts water. This is then applied to the skin using a cotton pad. However, if you have sensitive skin, you may want to make a more diluted solution.
