I love hearing what others have for Thanksgiving . . . My mom wants to host this year, as she lives next door to my aunt who has Alzheimers and does not like getting out. I will smoke either a turkey breast or a whole turkey. I’ll make cornbread dressing, a ham, and probably homemade dinner...

I understand the concern with elderly customers wanting paper bills over electronic methods. I own a medical billing company, and we send out tens of thousands of patient statements every month. We find that fewer and fewer people are responsive to paper statements, and we get a much better...

I have a link saved to his Thanksgiving posts and I refer to them every Thanksgiving for inspiration. I never met Kelly in person, but feel like I knew him through his posts. He was such a nice guy, and always had great information to share.

Great finds! You’re going to have to host dinner parties every single night with sleepovers and fancy breakfasts in the morning (with white tablecloths and cloth napkins) to use up that stash!

Hello All! I own a chain of sleep labs, and we wash a lot of queen sheet sets every day. The previous owner bought an LG Wave Force washer and dryer set, which of course isn’t the greatest and takes an eternity to wash a load. We have 9 beds at one of our locations, so I would like to...

Persil Non-Bio smells Heavenly! I love the scent. I prefer biological detergents, but the Persil Non-Bio smells way better than the Bio variant. The only tablets one can find now are Persil Non-Bio, and I always pick up a box when traveling to the UK. They fit in my carry-on perfectly. I...

Here is a fun video from Singapore’s public television.

Robert, Thank you for all your hard work. I know this has been a labor of love for you, but when you’ve invested as much time and money into this as you have over the years, at some point I can see where it would just become more “labor” and less “love”. Here’s the big question - What do...

How are you liking your Speed Queens? You seemed to be changing your machines fairly regularly for a while, so I was wondering when you would try something new. I miss mine. I gave them to my best friend’s parents when they moved here from a different state into a retirement apartment...

I occasionally order from this site, and I have seen Almat here before. I checked today, and I don’t see any Aldi offerings, but they do have some Sainsbury’s and Tesco laundry products. Check back often as the products frequently change...

This post is very timely . . . I just experienced the very same thing with my Jenn-Air french door refrigerator with the freezer on the bottom. I even have the sheet of ice on the bottom of the freezer! I’m afraid it’s going to ruin my new hardwood floor. Bryan

I watch a lot of her videos and agree with a lot of what she says with regard to personal finance and investing, but I also cringed when I saw this video. This is one topic where she and I do not agree.

Strangely enough, I use two different Electronic Health Records programs from really large software companies that work exclusively on IE. Both companies are now scrambling to make their programs “browser agnostic” so they can be used with any browser. It seems like the larger the company, the...

Congrats, Robert! I just looked back and I’ve been here for 16 years! I had no idea the site was so young when I joined back in 2005. My, how time flies. I’ve attended wash-ins in Texas and Arizona and have met some great people over the years. I have learned so much, and I still come...

I concur with the others. Make sure you use ripe avocados and just mash them with a fork. Bryan
