Ugh, we’ve all been there. So excited to bite into that luscious, juicy, sweet watermelon. Summer at its best for sure. Then, after all the excitement and hoopla, your watermelon moment is that light pink, dull-tasting bite that makes your heart sink. While there are several things we’ve all been taught to do to test watermelon ripeness, there’s really only one full-proof way according to the Simply Recipes website. When you’re at the grocery store, a farmers’ market, or come across a roadside stand this is the one and only thing you should with a whole watermelon to guarantee that perfect wat...

I remember hearing about this in school when I was little and it scared me to death. Never shower when there’s a thunderstorm or you could die another kid told me. Ouch that’s a traumatic moment for a kid for sure. At that point I was even scared if it was simply raining out. As it turns out my parents learned the same thing as children so little did I know that my mom waited for thunderstorms to pass before she gave me a shower and to this day I never do anything around running water when there’s a thunderstorm. The funny thing is while talking with some colleagues, only a few had ever heard ...

Summer often means more outdoor parties, get togethers, and of course dining alfresco which often translates to partaking in our favorite adult beverages a bit more than normal. Whether you’re on that summer vacation, by the pool, on the beach, or enjoying your own backyard, we drink more. Now this doesn’t mean overdoing it necessarily but that extra drink on a beautiful summer night comes easier so you’ll love this. It seems science finally discovered a cure for the hangover, or at the very least something that alleviates it a bit. The study is just a few years old, according to Medical Daily...

We love to slather on our favorite chapsticks and lip balms. That’s a given. They feel so good and often we have some in our car in the cooler months when they can’t get gooey and melt. We also have a one in our bedside table, often a couple are floating around in the junk drawer in the kitchen, and then for women, our handbag is a haven for one or two as well. But if you’re like me, you remember the original rumor that started with the Carmex brand decades ago. It was a favorite, silky, Vaseline-like lip balm that was basically a trend. However we started hearing that it dries out our lips, t...

Power outages happen when they happen whether we’re out of town or at work, even while winding down and binging a good television series. If we’re home then we know when and how long our fridge and freezer is off while our food sits there helplessly. If you’re traveling or at work it’s an entirely different situation. Frozen food thaws and bacteria will start to take hold immediately. Whether the power is off for 20 minutes or 20 hours once the power is back on, your food will refreeze with the bacteria. And if our mom taught us one important thing, it’s that refreezing thawed food is a no-no....

‘Tis the season to start prepping for repelling mosquitoes. Honestly, bug spray is the last thing most of us want during an outdoor gathering with friends and family. Hiking and camping are fine but when we spend so much time outside, it’s nice to know there are pleasant smells we can take advantage of. We’re all familiar with citronella candles as the most well-known, lemony scent for deterring those pesky, unwelcome guests to our outdoor BBQs. But here are three more smells you may prefer to try according to The Spruce website as well as the Pest Pointers website. LAVENDER SCENTS This is one...

Talk about a mess, and often an expensive one at that. While we may be pretty cognisant about our kitchen sink, the toilet is often a different matter. From dental floss and cotton swabs to tissues or baby wipes, it seems like anything small and seemingly innocent will be just fine flowing through the pipes with the rush of water. Oh, how wrong we all are according to the Family Man website and the havoc these items can wreak can be substantial. Don’t even get into the mindset of “every once in a while it’s okay to flush this or that” which often turns into a daily or weekly habit down the roa...
