Cool Ever Wondered ??

I was just going through posts in Beauty .. I found this tips for fairness.. Out of all the good ones.. i saw this ...

aspirin: 3 tablets of aspirin mixed with 3 coffe-spoon of water, apply on face and leave it for 20 minutes, rinse off and apply a 20 sunscreen: this last tips is not herbal but is very good against tan and black heads

I was amazed at one thing here.. She has said ' coffee spoon ' and we commonly say ' tea spoon ' !! Who cares which spoon is used as far as the methods work fo us, isnt !!?? I wanted to ask the below there but didnt want to stoned for moving out of context !!

But does anyone know why we say ' tea spoon ' and not coffee or something else ??

Has anyone ever had such weird questions poppin up in their mind too or you think its time I saw a Doctor ???

If if you have then.. can we hear to them ? atleast it will be a console to me !!

Drpreethis, after seeing your post I googled and guess what there is a coffee spoon ... apparently it is smaller than a teaspoon! Teaspoon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia and as far as the origin here is an explanation Word origin for "teaspoon" and "tablespoon"? - Yahoo! Answers

It was interesting for me to look it up!

Dear Preethi

I am reading a book now in which I came across this.

Occam's razor is not a razor that men shave with, but a Law.

I don't know if I am answering to your question correctly. But I thought you meant that teaspoon or coffee spoon is not something you really measure only those.

I always thought I knew som many of those, but right now what I can up with is "Why is it always Motherland and not fatherland". Let me rake my brains a little more and see if I can come up with more. Meanwhile look forward to read from others....:)

Rama,
Because our earth as so many resources, which we take it for granted, just as with our mothers we do:
Patience which is an ornament to womanhood, so worship her as Mother:
Compassionate enough to give us back in abundance what we sow:

Fathers are considered as tough guys, isn't it..
In one of Bharathiyaar's song.when there is a mention of Father's-land, (yengal thandaiyar naadu yendra paechinilae,oru shakthi pirakkudhu moochinilae) we get the strength..

Rama, thanks for the link..
