I would like to share a tip on how to extend the life of your cucumbers if you don’t eat them immediately. During the summer months, a cucumber stored in plastic wrap in the refrigerator gets mushy after a week. If you want to make sure your cucumbers last longer you should store them in an airtight plastic container after putting them in water with a small amount of bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) and patting them dry. The baking soda alkalizes the exterior surface of the skin and protects the cucumber from mold. You will notice that your cucumber will stay firm and fresh this way for at least a few weeks. Give it a try!
The joke of the day has been fully tested by the laughter crew, and here it comes! It’s called “Talking Too Much.”
A week after her baby had her pictures taken, a mother returned to the photo studio to view them on a monitor and pick which ones to make portraits from. The photographer started showing her each photo, but he blabbed his sales pitch non-stop, so she couldn’t get a word in. Finally, after showing the mother all 15 different poses in the baby pictures, he said:
“So, ma’am, which ones would you like for us to use for the portrait set?”
“None. This isn’t my child!”
?!
And now we have a heartline from Qian-Hui in China:
The Protecting Power of S.M. Celestial Jewelry Hallo, most respected and beloved Master and Supreme Master TV team! After my initiation, I’ve been following Master’s teachings conscientiously and diligently practicing spiritually. I am filled with joy and gratitude inside, and often have incredible inner visions in meditation. Being very fond of the S.M. Celestial Jewelry designed by Master, I did what I could and bought seven precious pieces of S.M. Celestial Jewelry. One night, I was meditating with “The Braves” ring on. As I fell asleep, a dream occurred. In the dream, I saw one of my previous lives. I was a powerful second wife in a wealthy family and I kept bullying the third wife. At that moment, her deceased mother resentfully grabbed a knife and angrily stabbed towards me. I was startled out of my dream and noticed that the ruby on the ring was missing, nowhere to be found. I was astonished. But I clearly felt that the Power of the S.M. Celestial Jewelry had saved me, and the vanished ruby had resolved my past life karma. Later on, when the opportunity came up, I had another beautiful ruby reset on the ring at the ashram. My gratitude to merciful great Master for saving my life and freeing me from the transmigration cycle of death and rebirth. Thank You, Master, for saving my deceased parents by elevating and liberating them. Master, Your benevolence surpasses the sky and the sea! May good health, peace and auspiciousness be with Master, and may everything go smoothly for You! May Supreme Master TV always accompany us in our growth! A disciple who loves You forever, Qian-Hui from China
Jolly Qian-Hui, We appreciate your caring insights. The elegant designs of the S.M. Celestial Jewelry have always held us in awe. Everything that is done by our cherished Master is touched by Her Love beyond what we can perceive. We wish you and the worthy citizens of China lives of abundant blessings in Buddha’s Protection, Supreme Master TV team
P.S. Master sends Her warm affection: “Grateful Qian-Hui, your well-wishes are received with joy. I am happy to see you progress in your spiritual practice and hope that you will go a long way during your sojourn in this physical realm. May the efflorescence of compassion continue in the vast land of China.”
