2018

Late last year my (better yet let’s say Danielle’s) Macbook Pro bit the dust with some weird display issues. We figured it was a goner, and Danielle needs a machine for her photography business, so she ended up with a shiny new Macbook Pro (it’s fancy). I didn’t put much thought into it until my ...

I don’t usually put too much stock in infomercial products, but I used one this weekend that really works as advertised. During the winter, my feet get cracked like crazy (nasty, I know).
