W5 Washing Up Liquid

One of the struggles that I had up until now is still finding a dishwashing liquid that effectively cleans the dishes that I am satisfied with. The dishwashing liquid that I am making in the Philippines is much more effective in removing the greases than what's available in here. I've used a much more well known brand - Fairy but I discovered that the W5 dishwashing liquid/washing up liquid (that what they call it in the UK) in Lidl is much economical as it is only priced at 0.62 GBP for a 500 mL. Apart from the fact that I like its pomegranate smell.

Multigrain rice journey

I have been seeing a video from Sara Park, I think? And that she has managed to reversed her PCOS because of her diet.

I was intrigued and started on my multigrain rice journey.

I had a suspicion that I might have PCOS as there are months that I skip my period. It might be hormones, or it might be stress. Whatever. Because although I try to deny it myself, I am internalizing conflict which I know is not good for me but I can't do/ or won't just do anything about it.

So here I am, modifying the factors that are well.... within my control.

I just recently started and find the cheap sainsburys rice mixed with Lidls quinoa alright. Not much for the Lidl's cheapest rice + their quinoa.

Next would be the lentils?
