Designer sunglasses are an affectation best saved for teenage girls and people who think they will be respected for wearing a popular brand of wholesale sunglasses.   From my perspective, there is only so much that a designer can do to the frames of sunglasses to keep them from looking like all the others.  To add distinction, they must either resort to smaller lenses which will lessen the protection, or decorations on the frame that may not synchronize well with the outfit of the day.

Luckily we are all past this stage in our lives. In fact life was simpler back then. Today the stress of keeping a job, family commitments and financial worries are enough to make us physically unhealthy. Yet depression doesn’t have to own us. We can do something about it and it doesn’t have to be as expensive as today’s dental work bill. Get off your butt and get out and get some exercise. To begin a simple walk around your neighborhood is a good start. Work in at least 30 minutes 3 times a week. Gradually you’ll feel better to increase the minutes. Then start a strength program to regain muscle strength. Find a personal trainer and rediscover your body. Lesen Sie mehr »

If you live in the south or another warm climate, the Indian Hawthorn (Rhaphiolepis indica) is a great outdoor bonsai tree for you. It hates the harsh, cold winter temperatures, so you certainly want to either give it a warm environment or, if you live in a cold area, bring it in during the winter. It’s an evergreen bonsai, and it really loves the outdoors. Keep it in some shade, though—like all bonsai, the Indian Hawthorn is not a fan of bright, direct sunlight. The tree features shiny, dark green colored leaves, and during the spring, it will grow small, white flowers that resemble cherry blossoms. It also produces small, dark berries. Lesen Sie mehr »

My husband has become a bit of a health-nut. It seems over the last few years he’s become more and more focused on eating healthy and getting a lot of exercise, whether it’s hiking, working out with weights, or biking. I’m glad he’s taking his health so seriously. It’s even a good influence on me, though I still eat my fair share of sweets and simple carbs like chips and breads. The hard part is adjusting our menus to fit his new tastes – he hardly eats meat anymore, but he does love fish. I usually bake the fish in one of my usual stainless baking pans but if you’re not careful it can get overcooked and dry very quickly.  That’s why I think this covered clay fish baker is such a great idea.

Recently my husband simply got fed up with his poker chip case. He had bought some really nice poker chips in a 500 piece set that came with an aluminum case. Evidently not all aluminum poker chip cases are made equal. His case had all but fallen apart in a matter of about six months. One of his friends has a similar case that has been in use for over a year and is holding up quite well. As a result of this dissatisfaction, my husband was looking to make a considerable upgrade in a quality poker chip case. As the game had grown and adjusted, he had purchased an additional 250 poker chips and simple plastic racks to store them in. So you can imagine the disarray. Lesen Sie mehr »
