REVIEW – I entered the world of electric cars last year in July when I purchased a Chevrolet Bolt. I went for the Bolt over a Tesla, mainly because of the significant price difference. I love the car; it has been a very enjoyable experience. 99.9% of my charging is done at home on a

REVIEW – My husband has accumulated many things he needs to bring in his everyday travels. Shorts or pants pockets can no longer hold what he needs on a daily basis. He has been looking for a good lightweight, small bag to carry his two wallets (yea, don’t get me started!), reading glasses, a large

REVIEW – I have mentioned before that one thing I enjoy doing is detailing my cars. You can be much more efficient and use less water when washing your car using a pressure washer. A gas-powered pressure washer can do the trick, but then you have to worry about engine maintenance, making sure you do

REVIEW – I have always been fascinated by the cool crafting projects I have seen for sale at various farmer’s markets and artists’ shows in the area.

REVIEW – Starting in March, I had to return to my office four days a week. I had gotten used to being at home, where it was nice and quiet. I knew I wanted to bring my earbuds into work to use them for Microsoft Teams meetings and provide entertainment during lunch. The problem with

REVIEW – I have recently gotten into woodworking. I will often need a glue gun when trying to plane down a piece of wood that is not perfectly level on both sides. Normally you would start with a tool called a ‘joiner’ that smooths out the bottom of an uneven board as it passes over

REVIEW – My office is lit by a cluster of three LED light bulbs mounted behind frosted glass in a ceiling fan. There is no way I would want to get rid of the ceiling fan, but the light it produces is not the best when I want to read or write on my desktop.

REVIEW – A few months back, I got to review my first electric bicycle, the Magicycle Jaguarundi. It is a folding electric bicycle. I love the bike’s power, but it did feel a bit cramped when I hopped off the seat and stood between the seat and handlebars. Since then, I have wanted to review

REVIEW – I am a sunglass snob. I love high-quality sunglasses that fit well and do a great job protecting my eyes. I also love wearing earbuds when I take walks and work in the yard. Lucyd and their Lyte smart eyewear promise to combine both into a single item. Let’s see how well they

REVIEW – The first thing I bought way back when I got my first job at 15 years old was a camera. I have always loved photography. I have over 1300 paper photos, 90% are mine, and the rest were taken by my or my husband’s parents. About ten years ago, I had many of
REVIEW – Mmmmmmm smoked chicken! I love to make smoked meats on my pellet grill. A whole chicken was one of the first things I ever made on it. It is a cheaper piece of meat compared to brisket, so I figured if I messed it up, it would not cost me as much. The

REVIEW – I believe that you can never own enough portable Bluetooth speakers. There are so many kinds out there to handle various situations.

REVIEW – Have I ever mentioned how much I hate cold weather? Well, I really hate being cold. Maybe it has to do with living in south Texas for most of my life, but I will take 100-degree temperatures over 55-degree temperatures any day. That being said, I am also a cheapskate, and the cost

REVIEW – As I mentioned in my Tineco Floor One S5 review, I have about 1800 square feet of hard surfaces to clean in my home. I am fortunate to have a Roborock S7 MaxV that vacuums and mops my entire house several days a week. I got that robot vacuum after reading Julie’s Roborock
