• Uphengululo lwe

Phakathi kweeveki zokusebenza ezinde kunye neeshedyuli zokuqina komzimba, asinalo ixesha lokuhambisana nobomi bethu bentlalontle singasathethi ke ngokuza ekhaya sicoce indlu yonke imihla. Akukho ntloni. Kodwa kukho igumbi elinye onokufuna ukwenza umzamo ongezelelweyo wokugcina ucocekile: ikhitshi.

Ngelixa kuvavanywa umbono wokuba indawo ezixineneyo kunye neziphithiphithi ziyasicinezela, zisikhuthaza ukuba sifikelele ekutyeni okungenampilo, abaphandi abavela kwiCornell Food kunye neBrand Lab kutsha nje bafumanise ukuba ukungqubana ekhitshini kukhokelele abantu ekubeni badle iikhalori ezingakumbi-, ngokuchaseneyo, icocekile indawo yasekhitshini isike iikhalori. (PS Ngaba yeyiphi into yokubala ekhitshini yakho ebangela ukuba uzuze ubunzima?)

Kuphononongo lwabasetyhini abangama-98, abaphandi bacela isiqingatha sabathathi-nxaxheba ukuba balinde umntu nokuba kukwikhitshi elicocekileyo nelithuleyo kwaye esinye isiqingatha sokulinda ekhitshini elonakeleyo elinamaphephandaba athe saa etafileni kunye nezitya ezimdaka esinkini. Zombini iimeko zekhitshi zazinezitya zeicookie, ii-crackers, kunye neekherothi ezihleli ngaphandle. Bafumanise ukuba abafazi ekumele ukuba balinde kwindawo enesidubedube batye ngakumbi, ngakumbi xa kufikwa kukutya okungekho mpilweni-babeneekuki eziphindwe kabini kunezo zicocekileyo!

Into enomdla kukuba, abaphandi baphinde basebenzise imeko yabathathi-nxaxheba ngaphambi kokuba bangene ekhitshini. Abanye babafazi baqale bacelwa ukuba babhale malunga nexesha ebomini babo xa baziva belawula ngokukodwa ngelixa abanye bacelwa ukuba babhale malunga nexesha apho baziva bengekho ngaphezulu kolawulo. Iqela eliziva linamandla olawulo lokungena ezikhitshini litye malunga nekhulu leekhalori ezingaphantsi jikelele kunabafazi abahamba beziva bengalawuleki. (Fumana indlela ukuCoca kunye noLungiselelo olunokuyiphucula ngayo impilo yakho yaseMzimbeni nasengqondweni.)

Kuthetha ukuthini oku kwindlela yethu yokucoca? Okona kuncinci, siyazi ukuba uxinzelelo lusikhokelela ekubeni sisebenzise iikhalori ezingaphezulu. Ke ukuba ungumntu ongakwaziyo ukubona ubugxwayiba okanye uphazamiseke kakhulu yi-clutter, ukugcina indawo otyela kuyo icocekile kwaye icocekile ayilunganga nje kwimpilo yakho iyonke, kungcono kwisinqe sakho. (Nantsi indlela yokuThengisa iKhitshi lakho ukuba ufuna ukunciphisa umzimba.)
