I am a working woman with a secret life: I keep house. An off-and-on lawyer and professor in public, in private I launder the clothes, clean, cook and devote serious time and energy to a domestic(家务的) routine, not so different from my grandmothers did as “housewives”.When I want a good read, I reach for my collection of old housekeeping handbooks. I enjoy housekeeping and the comforts it provides.
I have almost entirely hidden this passion for housekeeping though I am writing a long story about it. No one meeting me for the first time would doubt that I spend my time knitting or remembering household facts. I knew I would not want this information about me to get around. After all, I belong to the first generation of the women who worked more than they stayed home.
Being viewed as over-domestic can get you socially ostracized. When I made hand-rolled pasta(意大利面食) for a dinner, I learned the hard way that some guests would find annoying, as they didn't feel comfortable eating a meal that they regarded as the product of too much trouble. When my son was in nursery school, I made the mistake of spending a few hours sewing for him for Halloween dressing, receiving hard stares of many fellow parents who had bought a Batman or Esmeralda costume. Many times my courage in writing the story failed me when painful silence followed my confession(坦白) about the long book, “NO, not a history of housework, an explanation of it—a practical book on how you make the bed and make a comfortable home.”I

Who could have imagined that a treadmill(跑步机) on wheels would one day become a thing? The Lopifit is an unusual means of transportation that allows you to power an electric bicycle by walking on a treadmill.
Lopifit founder Bruin Bergmeester says it all started when he asked himself the question “How can I use a treadmill outdoors?” He finally came up with a new design, adding an electric motor, and the Lopifit was born. It's similar to an electric bicycle in that the motor only works when the rider puts power in as well. The Lopifit senses when you walk on the treadmill and uses the motor to turn a drive chain at the back of the treadmill, helping you reach a top speed of 17 miles per hour.
To use the Lopifit, simply turn on the battery(电池)and use your feet to slide the treadmill backwards and start the motor. Then get on and enjoy the ride! If you need speed, just walk on the treadmill, and if you want to coast(惯性滑行), all you have to do is stay still and admire the view. To stop, you have two handbreaks.
