According to a new survey, 47 percent of Americans want a boy as their first child, because they're not as hard to raise as girls.
Only 21 percent said they wanted a girl first – and 32 percent said didn't have a preference either way.
Of those that said they'd prefer a son, 45 percent said that having a son would be "less hard work," while 31 percent thought the son would do a better job of looking after the younger kids better. And, 19 percent, said they wanted their male child to carry the family name. (CBS News)
What's the Germiest Place in Your Kitchen?
A surprising new study from the National Science Foundation has found that the veggie drawer in your fridge might be the germiest place in your kitchen.
While most people don't think that vegetables are that much of a problem, health officials strongly suggest that the veggies – and the veggie drawer – are all cleaned in order to avoid cross-contamination that can lead to foodborne illnesses.
Cleaning the bin is simple. Just wash it with warm soapy water and deodorize it with a baking soda mixture if needed. (Yahoo News)
