I find that I regularly use some form of ChapStick type product -- mostly just as a moisturizer for my lips year-round, but also to heal dry, chapped lips in the winter.

I recently discovered Neosporin LT after seeing their commercial on TV. Their tagline was something along the lines of: "You know how good Neosporin is for treating cuts and scrapes... Imagine what it could do for your lips."

Yahoo! (...or should I say EBAY!)

I've been looking for YEARS for a few more "grab-it" plates from CorningWare, but they're discontinued and impossible to find.

On a whim, Jim and I both had our blood sugar levels tested recently. Actually, Jim's mom (who's diabetic) was testing her own levels at home over the holidays, and we asked if we could use her handy-dandy little contraption to test our levels too.

Jim's dad (a.k.a. the caretaker of the family and the keeper of all the cool medical testing gadgets!) eagerly set up the little hand-held machine for our individual tests.

Do you subscribe to any magazines?

We haven't for years (since I ended my sub to Creating Keepsakes scrapbooking mag about 4 years ago). But, after visiting Jim's family over Christmas and flipping through the pages of Elouise's Better Homes & Gardens and Country Living magazines, I became excited to start "reading" again.
