Lets Get Moving
Looking to expand my overall excersice plan. From the dust cover:
30-minute DVD with workouts designed for beginners, moderate, and regular exercisers--all done so you can exercise without lots of equipment. For the first time in our history, scientists are uncovering astounding medical evidence about dieting--and why so many of us struggle with our weight and the size of our waists. Now researchers are unraveling biological secrets about such things as why you crave chocolate or gorge at buffets or store so much fat.
Michael Roizen and Mehmet Oz, America's most trusted doctor team and authors of the bestselling YOU series have now translated this cutting-edge information into the bestselling book, YOU: On a Diet, and have collaborated with celebrity trainer Joel Harper to develop an accompanying exercise program that will help you build muscle and shave inches off your waist.
Available at Amazon.
Villa Manodori Aceto Balsamico
Two years ago for Christmas, Chris gave us a bottle of this balsamic vinegar. We brought is home from San Francisco and stored it in the pantry. About 15 months later Chris was home visiting and helping with dinner when he found it, unopened and un-enjoyed. He promptly chastised us, opened it and added it to his creation.
It was wonderful. Thanks Chris! We have enjoyed it immensely this past summer, mostly on fresh tomatoes from the garden with fresh mozzarella and basil.
We need more!
Bon Appetite.
Shaving Stuff
Shaving is my new "hobby". Why not. You have to do it almost every day, so might as well enjoy it. I got a double edge razor a couple of months back and am now ready to move to the next level.
A Merkur Heavy Duty slant head model safety razor hand crafted in Germany. Chrome finish is fine. Available at Em's Place. Also a possible contender is stepping up to the Futur just below the slant head.
Also under consideration is a Badger Shaving Brush. Either the regular Premium style or the "Kick it up a notch" Silver Tip, also availabe at Em's Place under Premium Badger Brushes.

Slippers
I only wear my slippers in the colder months and my current pair might be from the 90's. They've been good but I'm in need of some new ones.
These look nice
This one is from L.L.Bean here
I'm sure there are lots of other choices. Size: 10 or 11. Wide size if available.

It's Been Awhile
I see it's been awhile since I last posted. Obviously I do not want for much!
I've had requests for new suggestions, so I better offer some up, otherwise I may only get a lump of coal. Now, where's that catalog I was looking at...
