The first time I tried the mask was during the morning, so I could monitor the results and see how my skin responded.

I’ve tried my best to mimic her cooking for the past nine years while living away from her abroad, and although I’ve come close with the beef noodle soup and pork dumplings, I haven’t been able to replicate her rice. My version is often too soft, too mushy, and not chewy enough. So when I asked my mom for her secret to delicate, fluffy, separated-by-the-grain rice, I was shocked to find that it wasn’t a technique, but rather something you can buy: the Zojirushi Induction Heating Rice Cooker....

Back when I was in college, I had a good friend named whose family lived close enough to actually visit during the holidays unlike my own. During our freshman year he invited me to join his family for some of their holiday celebrations since I was missing my own family.

What’s a grout pen, and why haven’t I heard of this sooner, you ask? It’s an ink formula in a pen form that you draw over stained (but cleaned) grout lines to give them a fresh white (or gray, or whatever color your grout is) appearance. It’s almost as easy as it sounds, but it will take some patience and precision to carefully paint within the lines. Accidentally getting some of the ink on the tile surface will give away your secret trick immediately, so applying the formula carefully is crucial for the finished effect....

First, the big difference: Sanitization reduces contamination or bacteria to a safe level, while disinfection kills everything on a particular surface, according to Travers Anderson, R&D Group Manager at Clorox. Think of sanitizing as lowering the level of germs on a surface, while disinfecting is killing all of them. Sanitizing is a little gentler since disinfecting often involves strong chemicals.
