You all have heard my grumblings about the mold in my front loading LG washer. The people at Fresh Wave heard too. They sent me a bottle of Odor Neutralizing Fresh Wave Multi Purpose Additive to see if it might help. I know that others are having similar problems based on the response that post [...]

I have a gardener and I spend a decent amount of time working in my yard, but it’s still susceptible to the occasional fungus or insect problem. I hate using chemicals in my yard. I’d rather have bugs or pull out plants with fungus than spray toxic chemicals. We don’t have pets yet, but La [...]

I don’t see many people outside washing their cars anymore. This might be due to the mandatory water restrictions we now have in San Diego, but I certainly don’t miss the gushing gutter water flowing down our street. In San Diego, you can still wash your car at home before 10am and after 4pm with a [...]

Last Christmas, I meant to use all LED lights but found our local stores to be sold out or low on inventory. I didn’t have time to pursue it any further as it was quite possibly the busiest Christmas season our family will ever have. I did find LED C7 outdoor lights, but they were cool [...]

I give full credit to Good Housekeeping magazine for this information. I get GH only because I got an email from Amazon.com (did you know that you can order magazines from them?) offering a subscription for a ridiculously cheap price. I’m glad I subscribe because I actually read it every month.
La Jolla Dad decided to make [...]
