Thanks to Pompeian Olive Oil for sending me a product sample in exchange for a review! Using canned marinara sauce is an easy way to make spaghetti without watching a simmering pot all day, but there are a few things you can add to give it a more homemade taste. My personal favorites are a robust red wine (or sherry), ground cloves and olive oil. For the oil, Pompeian Extra Virgin is a good choice because of its purity and full-bodied flavor. You might not know this, but Pompeian is the only Continue Reading

Our Nuby Step Stool sits solidly on the floor and never slides around, thanks to the four wide legs with rubber bottoms. It's actually rated to hold up to 800 pounds. Wow!

A Quiet Pencil Sharpener that Works!
Today I'm going to talk about sharpening pencils.
