Product Review: AeroGarden® Grows Gourmet Herbs Right In Your Kitchen to Season Your Dinner With Ease

We are living in a time of many exciting developments in technology. I particularly love discovering new gadgets and appliances. If a gadget or appliance can make my life easier, more fun or add a bit of additional luxury then I am usually in. Today, I have an appliance to share with you that will make your meals fresher and tastier. Do you also love the taste of fresh herbs added to your meals? In my humble opinion, fresh herbs give meals the gourmet taste and appearance we typically enjoy when dining out. Personally, I am quite fond of cilantro and basil.

This Is Not Your Grandmother’s Bank. This Bank Is All About Freshness.

Every industry continues to face new challenges and competitors as the desires/needs of customers continue to evolve. The banking industry today is no exception. If you think back even 10 years (let alone 20 years) ago it was very different than what exists today. Back in the days, banks gave away some interesting gifts to encourage new potential customers to come aboard. Ask your grandmother about those toasters they used to give away.

Now think about all of the consolidation that occurred in recent years. Seems the signs on the outside of the building continue to change. Have you ever received one of those letters that come in the mail announcing that your account will now be under new management effective XYZ date?

To Bragg or not to brag?

That is today's question. As children, many of us were taught by our elders not to brag about the things we had in our midst, or about the God given physical attributes, talents and skills we possess. Yes, we could enjoy all of those things but waving them in the face of others was thought of as a no-no.

Well, I have not come today to wrestle with that teaching and its meaning, but I have come to brag on Bragg. I have been “Bragging” for months and have inspired many others to do the same. Even my grandmother (who shared the do not brag teaching with me as a child), is now “Bragging” right along with me. Have I lost you? I certainly hope not. Give me just a moment to explain why I continue to Bragg on a daily basis.

Juice Up Your Morning Shower

Sometimes we can all use a little something extra to wake up and get us going, right?  I know that was the case for me on many days.  If you need a little extra boost to get going in the morning, let me share one of my best secrets to jump-start the day.  I simply juice up my shower!  I began this juicing ritual over a year ago and it is still going strong on a daily basis.  Juicing up your shower will make you want to leap out of bed each morning (in spite of the falling temperatures around the country).  Don’t worry juicing up your shower is very easy.  No instructional video, hardware equipment or special tools are required.
