Save Bread (Both Types)

So much bread goes stale, then into the garbage. It’s a waste of money and natural resources to grow the grain to make it. Check out the video How to Waste Less Bread.  It gives tips on keeping bread fresh and on ways to use it when it goes stale.

 

Those Darned Truckers!

Who hasn’t thought, “There goes another one of those massive pest-trucks, clogging up my highway”? I’m guilty. I won’t think it again, thanks to this video.

How to Tell if that Gas Pump Has a Skimmer

This is information all drivers should have. We can protect ourselves from the bad guys who install credit card skimmers in gas pumps to collect credit card data from us so they can sell it to other bad guys who then use it, knowing that the bill will come to us, not to them. I was surprised at how simple this is–just takes a second to glance up and be safe. And it’s yet another reason to find ways to use less gasoline.

Did He Dress Provocatively?

As they say, turnabout is fair play. I love the turnabout in this short British video. Yes, female victims ARE still being judged on these questions–mentally, at least, in the best of settings.

What is this Recycle Garbage?

I don’t know about you, but I’m confused about what I should toss into the recycle bin.  Sure, aluminum drink cans and beverage bottles are easy–everyone knows that. But the rest of it?

I used to go by the “recycle” triangle. Then I learned that numbers 3-7 can not be recycled. (So why do they have that triangle?!)  I learned, too, that boxes that have food residue in them (like the bottoms of pizza boxes) can NOT be recycled. And my frustration continues.

Anyway, I found this video very helpful.  It gives me some clear guidelines. Now I’m more comfortable in my recycling.  I hope it helps you, too.

Fighting the Demon Affecting Our Elders

What is non-government-related that will potentially bankrupt the Social Security system?  What is being experienced by an estimated 60 million people?  What will 70% of people over age 85 suffer with?  What easy action can people in their 60s take to help prevent it?  This 6-minute Ted Talk by John Denoer, Disrupting Dementia, is an eye-opener to helping ourselves and our older loved ones.
