My search for a cordless vacuum finally ended when I found the Karcher VC4i Cordless Vacuum

August 13, 2020 Paris B 6 Comments

I shared about my purchase of the Karcher VC4i Cordless Vacuum on Instagram a month or so ago, and promised a proper review after using it. Here it is, finally! It’s taken me a while, as I wanted to use it properly and thoroughly, so I could reliably tell you what I think of it, and if it’s worth a purchase.

Like many people, when thoughts turned to the purchase of a cordless vacuum cleaner, I was immediately drawn to the Dyson. You must admit that they have marketed themselves well, showcasing a sleek design and a seemingly ‘must-have’ technology.

But like many, I balked. The pricetag was too high for me to justify. So, I kept to my corded handheld vacuum, and told myself I’d wait for a good deal to come by.

When we had our MCO (lockdown), I spent more time than normal at home, and it was then I realised just how dusty it can be, and how much hair my dog sheds. Goodness me! Let me warn you about beagles! 😛

So, when I found myself lugging my corded vacuum cleaner out every other day, my thoughts once again turned to getting a cordless vacuum. I ran a quick poll on Instagram, but it wasn’t much help. The choices were endless, ranging from very affordably priced cordless vacuum cleaners from China that we could get on Shopee or Lazada, to naturally, the Dyson. Everyone who said they’d bought the Dyson told me they didn’t regret it.

While I was ready to spring for the Dyson, I wasn’t sure if I should go for the V10 or newer V11 version. As I dithered, a friend linked me to the Karcher VC4i and said, here’s something else to consider!

So I did, and I dug around and did my research, and eventually, I picked the Karcher VC4i Cordless Vacuum. Here’s why 🙂

3 Pet-friendly Floor Cleaners : Safe for your baby and your fur-baby!

May 27, 2020 Paris B 3 Comments

Ever since I got a pet, I’ve had to put into place a few lifestyle changes. For one, I now have something to care for other than myself, so I’ve had to make a lot of allowances for time, and freezer space for his food LOL!

One more thing I did some research into, was floor cleaner, because he’s running around the house all the time, and is always picking things off the floor. Just like a baby!

3 pet friendly child friendly floor cleaner

Before I got Sherlock, I’d already shifted away from using very strong floor cleaner. I have laminated wood flooring laid throughout my home, so the floor cleaners I use must be suitable for those type of flooring.

I also wanted something fairly ‘safe’, which meant that it had to be gentle on skin (my hands and feet are sensitive to detergent) and safer for me to breathe in.

I was using one of it for a while, but since getting a pet and having to clean the floor more regularly since, I had to opt for something a little more cost-effective. In the process, I found better options for pet-safe and pet-friendly floor cleaners, easily available locally here in Malaysia 😀

If you too own pets, or have children, these 3 pet-friendly and child-friendly floor cleaners might be something you could look into 🙂

Eat at Chez PB: How to store fresh vegetables to keep them fresh and reduce wastage – What worked for me and what did not

April 27, 2020 Paris B 3 Comments

Staying home, being in quarantine or in isolation has brought out the latent cook in us all. Not saying that we’re all turning out to be Masterchefs, but I think that for the most part, people are learning to feed themselves and their families, and in the process, pick up a life skill. Look on the bright side!

A little while ago, I told you that I was having a problem getting in and storing fresh vegetables and greens, and that provided me with a challenge all on its own. But I’ve since solved that problem, and in the process, learnt something new.

storing vegetables

After so many years of cooking (something I enjoy and have been doing even prior to this), I’ve finally worked out how to properly store fresh vegetables, herbs and aromatics, so they last longer.

In the past, I usually bought only enough to last me a few days or a week, so I’d usually just toss them into the vegetable drawer in the fridge, and leave them there. I had no real incentive to figure out how to properly store to keep them fresher for longer.

But now, I buy vegetables in greater quantities, and I did not want to waste all the herbs and aromatics that are delivered in larger quantities than I’m used to. So, I did some research, tested out different methods, and found the ones that worked for me. Perhaps they’ll help you too 🙂

What are some Challenges you’re facing while staying at home?

March 27, 2020 Paris B 9 Comments

As I write this, the concept of a country-wide lockdown, self-isolation, or movement control, is no longer an alien concept to most. We’re starting to see it roll out in many countries worldwide.

It all started out as a bit of adventure didn’t it?

For those who have been wanting to work from home (or work remotely) but their bosses or companies did not understand, it is quite fun at first. And a challenge, but mostly fun (here’s some tips I shared on how to tackle this work from home malarkey)

stay at home challenges

But after a week (that’s how long it’s been here in Malaysia), the fun is beginning to pall, parents are going crazy with all their kids at home, and perhaps even couples or partners are starting to drive each other nuts LOL! It’s going to get even longer, so there is still a ways to go yet!

So, come on, share what your Stay-at-Home Challenges are. I’ll share mine 😉
