1. Chopping vegetables and fruit
1、切蔬菜和水果
Non-slip: To avoid the board slipping when cutting and chopping food, put
two rubber bands around either side of chopping board to stop it from
sliding.
防滑：为了避免切食材时案板滑动，在案板的两边裹上两个橡皮筋来防止其滑动。
Handy: Make turning pages easier by getting a thin rubber band and wrapping
it around the index finger to leaf through books, papers and notepads with
ease.
Overindulged: For those moments after a big meal when doing up pants the
conventional way is just impossible, reach for the rubber band. Loop the band
around the buttonhole and hook it to the button to breathe with ease without
constraining zips and buttons.
Non-slip: Some items - especially spaghetti straps - have a tendency to
slip off hangers within seconds of being tidied away. Double-loop elastic bands
and put them either side of the hanger to keep clothes from falling down.
Firm: Get two bands, loop them together, then loop on several more. Loop
the whole chain through the end of the dish-wrack then wind around wine glasses
and loop at other side to keep them in place inside the dishwasher.
