Bucket Seats

Have you ever thought about how comfortable your car is? I have done my fair share of driving around, and I think that the two front seats of my car are the most comfortable seats ever. When I get off work, I walk out to my car; pop the lock and sit down in the car, lean back (way back, as many of you know…) and just let out a huge sigh. In that moment nothing matters but the fact that my back doesn’t hurt and I am completely content, I think it has something to do with the fact that the car seats give you total support. From your head, neck and back to your legs and feet. They hold you up and offer extra padding right where you need it. Have you have traveled for an extended period of time only to realize when you arrive that your booty doesn’t hurt at all; the way it would if you had been sitting in chair at home? I personally think that they are the most amazing thing ever invented! The next time you get in your car, before you starter’ up take a minute and just notice how you feel, relaxed, content, calm. Thanks for the seats!

Aluminum Foil!

Ok, so I am a total slacker! But, I'm back and hopefully will be able to more consistently post to the blog! So without further ado, I give you...foil! Yes, aluminum foil. The thought for this post came during Thanksgiving last year. I was helping my dad in the kitchen get ready to pack everything up to take over to my Brothers where we were having the meal. There was a lot of plastic tupperware and such as well as seran wrap. But, the thing that really caught my attention was the foil. First, dad used the foil while cooking the turkey as a tent to stop the top from getting too done. He took the bird out the of oven (at 400 degress) and put it on the counter and I grabbed the foil off the top, was it hot? NO, how amazing is that? It had been in the oven over 3 hours at this point...but it was completely cool to the touch! It really made me Thankful for the different technologies that we have today and how they assist in our lives. So, after the dinner was ready to go we used that same foil to cover the top of the bird and wrapped it around the pan so that no juice would leak out. No catastrophies on the drive to my brothers...Ok, seriously I could go on and on but Aluminum foil is absolutely fantastic. Next time you fix dinner, just remember what a blessing it is to have such a useful tool! :~)
