Interpretation
A lower score means a ‘weak’ performance and a higher score
translates to a ‘strong’ performance on a particular competency. A
‘weak’ performance should be regarded as a challenge or an
opportunity for improvement rather than a cause for worry. Improving a
competency entails enough determination, correct practice and
strategies, and time for maturation.

Idea Generation
The first step in identifying a good business opportunity is to
look for many opportunities. This is called the idea generation phase
(SERDEF, 2007). The following are good sources of business ideas
(Hisrich, Peters, & Shepherd, 2008; Looser & Schlapfer, 2001).
SWOT Analysis
Once you have chosen your business idea, the next step is to
conduct a SWOT analysis in order to determine the Strengths,
Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats of your potential business.
This step will help you improve your business of choice and prepare
for challenges. The table below will help you differentiate among these

Lesson 5.2
Kitchen tools and utensils are often costly that’s why proper use and storage
of it should be one of top considerations so quality and used will be
maintained.
1. Kitchen Appliances
Store away any kitchen appliance that you don’t regularly use on
the top shelf of cupboards.
2. Knives and utensils
A simple metal rod above the sink is a most convenient place to
hang kitchen whatnots like utensils and spice bottles. Ideally,
knives must be kept separate from spoons and forks to make
serving and table setting easy. Instead of the usual block, try a
knife drawer instead.
3. Plats and bowls
Organize plates, bowls, and saucers according to color so you
have no problem coordinating when you set the table.
4. Pots and pans
Make most of precious space by hanging a pan rack from the
ceiling to store your collection of saucepans and skillets. Fit a
towel rack on the shelf door and suspend the lids from them.
Their handles will keep them from sliding down
5. Silverware
Silverware must be kept in compartmentalized areas. If you
don’t want to spend on modular kitchen accessories, use pen
and pencil trays readily available in bookstores. Or line your
drawers with felt cloth, then glue the same fabric into the custom
– cut pieces of cardboard. Fit these into your drawer to create
compartments for your silver ware. The soft fabric will help
preserve the silver.
131
LM-Household Services Grade 9
B. Chinaware
Don’t use abrasive materials when washing chinaware.
Reach for the sponge. Wash off stains with hot water and
an all purpose detergent. Tea or coffee stained china will
reclaim its pristine white color when scrubbed with little
baking soda or toothpaste.
C.) Glassware
D.) Silverware
Store silverware in a thick box. Don’t wrap them up cloth,
plastic or paper; wrapping seals in moisture and may
cause tarnishing. Don’t throw forks and knives into the
sink to avoid scratches. Never stack utensils one on top
of another. place them side by side.
132
LM-Household Services Grade 9
E. Wood
Wipe off stains with a damp cloth. Avoid pilling dishes
atop wooden pieces. Don’t place hot items atop to avoid
chips and burns.
Freezer
It’s time to defrost ice collects on the top and sides to more that ¼ inch.
To speed up defrosting in a non-frost-free freeze, alternate tow pans
of boiling water in the compartment. While on pan is melting ice in the
freezer, the other can be reheated on the stove. Put an old towel on
the bottom of the freezer to absorb water as the ice melts.
Clean freezers with a solution of 2 tablespoons baking soda mixed
with one quarter. Dry thoroughly before replacing food, and wipe off
any moisture on freezer packages before putting them back inside.
Line the floor of the freezer with aluminum foil. (Don’t cover any
openings.) it keeps ice cube trays and spills from sticking to the bottom
If your freezer has an unpleasant smell, remove everything and put a cup
of dry coffee grounds inside. Close the door and leave it overnight.
If the odor isn’t gone by morning, repeat with fresh coffee grounds.
Microwave Oven
wipe spills as soon as they happen to prevent them from hardening.
Wash regularly with mild detergent and water, then rinse and wipe dry
with a clean soft cloth.
If spots are dried on, fill a microwave – safe cup halfway with water
and boil for 2 to 3 minutes on high. Let the cup sit in the oven for 8
minutes. Then wipe off steam loosen stain and dry.
Get rid of odors by wiping the interior with a solution of 1-tablesppon
baking soda and 1 cup water. Rinse and dry. Never use abrasive
pads or powders on the oven
A burned microwave smell can be neutralized by combining 1-cup
water, the grated peel and juice of a lemon and several whole cloves
in a 2-cup microwave glass bowl. Run the microwave on high for about
3 minutes, then let sit until cool.
133
LM-Household Services Grade 9
Refrigerator
Before cleaning, turn the refrigerator control to off and unplug the
electric cord.
Wash interior with a solution of 2 tablespoon of baking soda to one-
quart warm water. Rub hard-to-clean spots with dry baking soda.
Rinse and wipe dry.
To ward off mildew, wipe the inside with plain white vinegar.
Wash removable selves and glass parts in a warm detergent
solution, then rinse. Never use hot water on any plastic parts; it can
cause cracking.
Rinse ice cube trays with plain warm water. Hot water or cleanser
may make cubes sticks.
Clean the outside of the fridge with a mild soap and water solution
or all-purpose cleaner, and don’t forget to give the rubber door
gasket a thorough scrub.
Line the vegetable bin with a single layer of paper towels. They
absorb excess moisture and speed clean up.
Put leftovers in clear plastic containers and date them. Keep the
oldest items closets to the front so you’ll remember to use them up
quickly.
Put mustards, pickles and other condiments you don’t use all that
often in a turntable-it prevents them from getting pushed back and
lost. A quick turn will show you what you have.
Stove/Range
Remove grates (if your stove has them) and control knob. Soak in
a dishpan full of hot soapy water.
Clean drip pans in the dishwasher. To loosen burnt-on-food, spray

to manufacturer’s instruction. Clean round the knob holes with a
toothbrush dipped in cleaner.
Keep the exterior clean by wiping with a mild solution of table
spoon dishwashing detergent in 1 gallon of water or an all-purpose
glass and surface cleaner.
If something spills in the oven, sprinkle some salt on it after the
oven is turned off. Once the oven cools, lift the mixture out with a
spatula and wipe with a damp sponge.
134
LM-Household Services Grade 9
Cabinet
Wipe smudges or spots with a household cleaner as soon as
they appear. Use a cotton swab or toothbrush dipped in cleaning
solution to get in the narrow areas around the edge of the handle.
Line cabinet shelves and drawers for fast clean up. Use washable
paper, old vinyl placemats or even leftover vinyl floor tiles. You
can simply wash off little spills. Plastic lids from coffee cans make
excellent drip catchers for bottles of honey, olive oil or syrup.
Faucet Foibles
Clean with soapy water or commercial glass cleaner. Rinse
and wipe dry with a paper towel or soft cloth to make it shine.
Get rid of dirt under the edge and behind the faucet with an
old toothbrush sprayed with cleaner.

water and add 4 tablespoons chlorine bleach. Let stand an hour or
two. Rinse. Be sure that the area is well ventilated.
Stainless steel sink. Clean with a sponge dipped in hot, sudsy water.
