Two amazing bits of information

I learned two fascinating new things today.
This morning, I heard someone being interviewed on a morning news show, while I was getting ready for work.  He said that chocolate in the morning, specifically hot chocolate or dark chocolate helps older people think better.  It stimulates brain activity.  Yes!  I've always suspected that chocolate should be considered one of the basic food groups.
This afternoon, while I was having a manicure, my nail tech showed me how you can use sugar to clean up a nail polish spill on a hard surface.  She showed me on ceramic tile so I don't know how it would react on other surfaces.  She spilled a few drops of bright red polish on the floor, then sprinkled little piles of sugar on each drop, rubbed gently,and hey presto, the polish was absorbed by the sugar in little clay like balls and then she just swept it all up with a broom.
I love a day when I can learn two new things.
