If you have ever struggled through attempts at peeling open an orange then you need to see this video. It shows you how to properly go about removing an orange rind in a simple, quick, and efficient manner. The whole process can be done with only 3 cuts in less than 60 seconds.

Best of all, it leaves a minimal mess and reduces the likelihood of orange juice getting sprayed in your eyes. Start by positioning the orange down securely so that it sits length-wise. Carefully take a sharp knife and slice off each of the 2 ends. Then slice width-wise down the middle, but only cut to the center and not all the way through, so you still have one in-tact piece.

Take the orange and open it up at this last cut. It should unfold and reveal the delicious inner fruit pieces that you can now easily peel off the rind and eat. And voila the perfect way to peel an orange your probably never knew existed!

After learning this I want to challenge a friend to an orange peeling contest to see who can do it fastest. It’d be a quick way to make a buck if we bet on it….But seriously, try this technique next time you eat an orange and definitely watch the video to really see how it’s done.

Try it out and let us know if it works for you!

She Wrapped An Egg In Silk. But When She Unwraps The Egg It’s STUNNING!

image via – youtube.com

There are many ways to dye an egg. Some people use Kool-Aid, food coloring, store bought kits, nail polish, and all sorts of other things. One lesser known method is an old fashioned way that uses dye from silk scarves to decorate hard boiled eggs. The scarves intricate patterns and colors transfer to the eggs, which turn out absolutely beautiful and truly unique, thanks to their level of detail.

All you need is eggs (uncooked), 100% silk scarves or ties, a ½ yard of white fabric, twist ties, white vinegar, and vegetable oil. You will also need scissors to cut the fabric and a pot of water to boil the eggs in, but that’s it! The whole process is neat and easily doable in under an hour.

However, do not use any of your favorite or treasured silk items because they will be altered by this; not completely ruined, but faded. Also, be sure to use only 100% silk to get the right results. Second hand or thrift stores are a great place to find them at the lowest cost.

To start, cut the silk and white fabric into 7 inch by 7 inch squares. Take an egg and wrap it very tightly in a silk square, then wrap that in a white fabric square, and secure with a twist tie. Once all the eggs are wrapped up place them in a pot and fill with water. Add 3 tablespoons of white vinegar to the water and boil for fifteen minutes.

Remove the eggs from the stove and allow them to cool off. Unwrap them from the fabrics and your done! If desired, rub the vegetable oil onto the finished eggs to give them a glossy sheen. The video says that the silks can be used 2-3 times in this fashion to dye eggs. The eggs are also edible, you start with raw ones and they becomes hard boiled by the end of the process.

The whole project is a great way to try something new, cheap, and easy with family and friends. Check it out!

An Engineer Just Built His Pup The Most Genius Toy Ever. The Dog’s Reaction Is Priceless!

image via – youtube.com

Usually the game ‘Fetch’ is played with a human and their dog.  An object such as a ball or a stick is used in the game.  The human usually launches the object a certain distance from the animal and then the animal goes and retrieves it and brings it back.  Very rarely cats have been known to dabble and engage in this fetching behavior.

In the video below, an engineer has constructed a fetching machine for his pup.  The apparatus works like this, the dog drops the ball into a slot.  The dog then runs over to a wood 2×4 and starts pressing down on it like a lever.  Eventually enough force is placed on the wood stick that the ball shoots out from the slot and flies into the distance.

The dog runs, fetches, and brings the ball back to the place it first dropped it. Some may say this human is lazy and should just play fetch with his dog.  But as the old saying goes, work smarter not harder.  That motto usually goes a long way when it comes to engineering and physics.

This pup seems so satisfied with his new toy, I think he will be enjoying this for years to come! 🙂
