How To shopping Travel

The one non-negotiable item you MUST pack in your suitcase

Web Watch was on a trip recently, and as we often do, we found ourselves chatting with others in the airport.

And we sometimes find ourselves inquiring about people’s destinations and plans.  You know, to live vicariously through others ont their adventures.

One couple, for example, was on a month-long tour of Australia and New Zealand, and they were travelling lightly through the airport – as they shipped their luggage overseas to meet them at their hotel upon arrival (it was less expensive overall than flying with the oversized/overweight bags, and they already had confirmation that their bags were waiting for them).

Another person was going to spend a week in San Diego on business, and he was travelling with just his oversized computer bag.  He claimed that he had everything he needed in the one case for a week; he prefers to travel with as little complication as possible.

You own a dog.  But your dog gets bored, and decided to chew up your furniture.

Dogs need seemingly constant attention and distractions to keep them occupied and entertained.  While cats could care less about the humans they keep around to help get them tuna every once in a while, a dog craves interaction with their owner.

Do you have a “pee buddy”?

We’re not talking about a person that you feel comfortable enough with to not mind heading off to the bathroom at the same time with (ladies, we’re talking to you on this one).

No, we’re talking a really true friend.

The best Kale and Brussels Sprouts Salad Recipe

If there are two vegetables that tend to turn off carnivores at the very mention of them, two top qualifiers would be “kale” and “Brussels sprouts” (or “brussel sprouts”, if you’re into spelling it wrong).

Kale is typically used as a garnish rather than something you’d willingly go out of your way to make a salad from.  (And for those of you who’ve decided that pushing kale through your Mr Juicer because kale juice is said to help grow hair, it’s kinda gross from what we’ve seen our friends go through.)

And everybody knows that Brussels sprouts taste best when sauteed in tons and tons of bacon fat.

The most exact way to determine if your skirt is too short

Women have it rough, sometimes.

All they want to do is look attractive enough to catch a mate, but some of the fashion choices that are available can leave some women a bit more exposed than they’d like to be.

Some women prefer not to show cleavage. Some women prefer not to wear underwear, to eliminate unusual lines from appearing on their butts.

Hi-rise, Mom-type jeans.  Low-rise jeans.  To wear a slip, or not wear a slip.

It’s a myriad of questions that every woman must face as she’s putting together her wardrobe for the day.

How to track historical weather patterns – useful info when buying a new home

Whenever you’re looking to buy a new house, you take into account all sort of things that are important:

  • is the neighborhood safe?
  • are the neighbors seemingly social in the manner you would enjoy?
  • are the homes and yards kept up?
