I purchased the Realistic Wide Angel Strobe Light from Radio Shack over ten years ago.  When I think about it now I am wondering why in the world did I need to buy a strobe light. I guess it was because I was younger and more into clubs.  Anyway, the wide angel strobe light is really cool.  My kids really enjoy playing with it in the garage.  It is also great to use as a Hal...

Applying blush should be simple, but some people fail miserably. You know who you are, and I have the tool that will make  you a pro.The Angled Blush Brush, by Bare Escentuals, is not only the perfect brush for applying powder blush, but also for using a bronzer.  Three things add up to one great tool.  The angled shape (along with its size) allows you to put color exac...

I'm not the greatest cook in the world, so I need all the help I can get to make sure the recipe ingredients are exactly right when I'm cooking or baking.  I received the Oxo Good Grips Angled Measuring Cup as a Christmas gift last year and I totally love it.  The unique feature of this measuring cup is that it has an angled measuring marker inside the cup that makes it e...

This Fulton flashlight is the standard US military issue flashlight.It is made in the USA and it is TOUGH!While the body is made of plastic… it is heavy.

There is also a metal ring at the ...

One of those things that you take for granted is a measuring cup.  I did not realize that I did not have one until I was ready to bake cookies using a recipe with all the ingredients then searched for a measuring cup only to realize that I did not have one!  I had seen the angled measuring cup at Bed Bath & Beyond which I had never seen before so I decided to just go ahead and get...

I can't even remember when I bought these binoculars, but it was definitely more than 10 years ago. Although I have a pair of Minolta Weathermatic 7x50 Binoculars which have better quality optics, I generally prefer to carry these smaller and lighter binoculars which can fit in a purse or large pocket.These compact binoculars do have decent image quality. They have BAK-4 Porro prisms ...

Recently I went through the process of gathering insurance quotes from multiple insurers in search of the best price for auto insurance. The Hartford was one of my considerations, but let me explain why I did not choose them.The Hartford proudly puts on their website and recent advertising that they are for older drivers who are a part of AARP. This should have been a clue for me, an under-25 i...

I have always used a sponge brush for edging and corners while painting the rooms in my house. I tried this Shur-Line corner brush and have found it to be very easy to use and more effective than sponge brushes. Even though it is meant for use in the corners of rooms, I used it for all of my edging. It covers very well without leaving streaks in the paint. The face of the brush is a soft f...

In working with wood on small projects such as bird houses, I thought I had all the "saw power" I would ever need with a circular saw.  But to make things a lot easier, faster, and neater I found that I needed a miter saw.  I tried the hand saw with a miter box but that took forever and was very tiring.  So I asked my local handy hardware man what to do.  He recomm...

It is very irritating when you try to connect your PC and printer but the USB connector is either short or protrudes at the back.I am so glad I found this USB with a 360 degree rotating connector which is very good for tight spaces and difficult angles. I had to replace the USB cable of my printer just so I don't have to keep dragging the table near my laptop as I have a limited space on my...

I got my Bushnell Binoculars when my kids and I were doing a lot of hiking and bird watching. It was so much fun to get out in the woods and learn to identify different birds by sight and by their song.The Bushnell model I have is a 10x50 wide angle pair. The printing on them says "341 feet at 1000 yards". I think something more powerful would have been nice, but it was because of the...
