Cleaning and Organizing Supplies Make Unexpectedly Great Gifts. Here's Why.
In this edition of Clean Everything, we dish on six cleaning and organizing tools that make great gifts. When you imagine a great gift, you might envision something expensive and glittery with a big ol' bow on top. And, yes, those presents are great. But sometimes, it's the quieter, more practical gifts that can make a real difference in your giftee's life. It might not dazzle in the moment or spike any heart rates, but a practical gift pays off in a different way: by quietly making your recipient's life easier or more convenient. For the right person, a truly great cleaning tool can be a great present for that very reason. Take, for example, the $10 sink strainer that writer Rose Maura Lorre received as a housewarming gift eight years ago. At first glance, it was nothing special: a flexible, silicone catchall designed to accommodate most kitchen-sink drains. But after eight years of use, Rose calls it superior to a basic metal strainer in every way. It's supremely easy to clean. The holes are sized just right to allow water to flow down the drain, even when the strainer's basket is chock-full of food bits. And in the years since getting it, Rose has never dealt with a clogged kitchen sink. 'As a kitchen helper, the sink strainer is impressively reliable and pleasant to use, even though what you're using it for is a rather unpleasant task,' says Rose. 'As a gift, I like it even more. I love gifts that solve problems and make life a little easier for their recipients.'

She Always Bought Gifts for Her Nephews, but Her Own Kids Were Ignored. Now Her Family Says She's the Problem
After years of bringing thoughtful gifts to her nephews' birthdays, one mom quietly stopped and was stunned when the family finally took notice Her kids' celebrations were barely acknowledged, but the moment she pulled back, she was accused of being 'petty' and punishing children Now, she's questioning if she let years of hurt get in the way, or if she was simply standing up for her kids when no one else wouldA woman is turning to the Reddit community for support after a family birthday tradition left her feeling unappreciated and hurt. 'Over the past few years, my nephews have had several birthday parties,' the 34-year-old mom writes in her post. 'We've always been invited, and I used to bring gifts every time.' But when it came to her own children's birthdays, she says the effort was never returned. 'I started noticing that when it's my kids' birthdays, their parents never bring anything, or even acknowledge it,' she explains. What may seem like a small oversight began to feel deeply personal. 'My kids don't even get a 'happy birthday' from them,' she shares. She adds that this has been going on for years, and now, the imbalance has worn her down. 'It's started to feel very one-sided,' she admits. 'Their parents (my brother and sister-in-law) are often cold and dismissive toward me and my kids.' This year, she decided it was time for a change. While she still attended her nephew's birthday party, she deliberately chose not to bring a gift. 'I decided I wasn't going to keep doing something for people who clearly don't return the effort,' she writes. 'I still went to the party — but didn't bring any gifts.' The decision sparked immediate backlash. Not long after the party ended, her phone began lighting up. 'After the party, I got a bunch of texts saying I was being petty and 'you don't punish kids for adult problems,' ' she says. One Reddit user asked how her relatives even knew about the gift situation and the mom explained, 'It was mostly my parents who texted me. I'm guessing my brother and SIL told them I didn't bring gifts, because they weren't at the party themselves.' She says her parents didn't hold back, either. 'They said I was being rude and setting a bad example, and that 'the kids shouldn't be punished for adult issues,' ' she shares. 'Maybe I should've separated the kids from how I feel about their parents,' she confesses, clarifying that her kids' birthdays have never been ignored by anyone else on her side. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Her post has drawn a range of reactions from fellow Reddit users. One person writes, 'It's common decency to bring the children gifts. Why is it OK for you to bring their children gifts, and your brother doesn't give anything to your children on their birthdays? I would stop too. It's about mutual respect.' Others, however, question her approach. 'The mistake you made was going,' another commenter says. 'If you go, you bring a gift. They are children.' The mom remains torn. She admits she's still unsure if she let her emotions get the better of her. 'It's kind of ironic that no one said a word when my kids were the ones being overlooked for years,' she writes. 'But the moment I stop bringing gifts, that's when it's a problem.' Read the original article on People

Shu Heng Bi Tai Mak: Slurp-worthy Johor-style bee tai mak worth waking up for
I don't think I truly understood the phrase 'third time's the charm' until I visited Shu Heng Bi Tai Mak. Or rather, tried to. Few noodle stalls in Singapore specialise in bee tai mak, also known as 'mouse tail noodles'. Most, if any, offer it as an alternative to bigger hits like mee pok. Well, not here — the chewy rice noodle takes centre stage at this Kebun Baru Food Centre stall. As a huge proponent of bee tai mak supremacy, I immediately placed it at the top of my to-eat list. But it stayed there, unchecked, way longer than I liked. My first attempt was thwarted by a 2-month closure for repairs and renovations. The second, the stall was on a personal break. And finally, the third. I can't put into words the relief when I saw the stall up and running. I wasn't even fazed by the queue, which impressively lasted the entire time I was there that fine morning. Worth mentioning: they're only open for 5 hours a day, their noodles regularly selling out before lunchtime. Talk about elusive! My first dish of the day was the Johor Bi Tai Mak (S$4), which I later learnt is the stall's main attraction — and supposedly only one of its kind on this side of the Causeway. I should've known, seeing that the third customer after me was told that it'd already sold out. This is me counting my lucky stars, really. This was unlike any noodle dish I've had before, and I mean that in the best way possible. The broth had a viscous, gravy-like consistency, and dotted throughout were all sorts of goodies: minced pork, chopped mushrooms, hae bee, garlic, fried shallots, spring onions and traces of salted fish. One spoonful in and it was clear as day why this one's a sell-out. I'd describe it as the perfect cross between a robust pork-based broth and light ikan bilis stock, livened up with a satisfying peppery kick. It was savoury and full-bodied, yet still clean and thoroughly drinkable. Slicked in the warming broth, the bee tai mak noodles packed immense flavour into each mouthful, their smooth, chewy texture nicely complemented by the tender minced meat and mushrooms. Humble, comforting and so very addictive. I couldn't help but feel like I'd struck gold. In my mind the whole time was just how I'd found the perfect remedy for a rainy day or the flu. Sorry, porridge — you've just been overthrown. Malaysian Hup Kee Fishball Noodle: Stellar handmade yellowtail fishballs & must-try Malaysian-style noodles in AMK Guns blazing, I got started on my second bowl: the lengthily named Mushroom Pork Minced Fish Ball Noodles (S$4.50), which I opted to have dry. It's not as complicated as it sounds — it's really just fishball bak chor mee, just with bee tai mak in place of the usually-alkaline mee pok. I loved it from first glance. I must commend Shu Heng Bi Tai Mak's generosity with its portions — at such an affordable price point, no less. My bowl came piled with oh-so-juicy braised mushrooms, a generous heap of moist, flavourful minced meat, several fishcake slices and 2 plump fishballs that delivered a satisfying snap as I sank my teeth into them. I gave the noodles a good toss, coating each stubby tendril in a glossy mix of dark sauce, chilli and vinegar. Embellished with a rich brown sheen, the bee tai mak soaked up the tasty sauce perfectly — each bite enriched with savoury depth and the umami-rich kick of the hae bee-laden chilli. While I'm not usually a fan of vinegar, its sharp tang was mellowed out by the gentle, rice-y bite of the noodles. I wolfed down the whole bowl so quickly, you'd think I had somewhere to be. Third time's the charm, and very charming my meal at Shu Heng Bi Tai Mak was indeed. The concept of bee tai mak as a stall's main speciality is pretty novel, but one they've certainly nailed. Call me dramatic, but both soup and dry versions blew me away, and I'm fully convinced that more noodle stalls should take a leaf out of their book. But as long as Shu Heng Bi Tai Mak reigns, I'll learn to become a morning person so I can catch them while they're open.
