Nap Central Are You Ready for a Nap on the Couch? Whether you are traveling, staying close to home, or hosting Thanksgiving at your house, one thing is for certain; the inevitable food coma. We've all been in that position. You may have had just one plate too many and now you feel like sleep is the only option that sounds good until your body catches up with what you grubbed down on. Funny thing is that feeling you get of being groggy is actually based on a chemical reaction. Now you don't have to feel bad for overindulging! Or, if you're like me, you don't really feel bad about it. While that living room set will be calling your name soon enough, let us take a trip down science lane to figure out why you get so mellow after having some turkey.  Trypto the Couch! A lot of people blame the turkey for making them sleepy. However, I noticed that during my low carb phase, I didn't really suffer from a mid-afternoon desire to sleep. Because of that, I decide...

Dining Room Set Do You Have Enough Room? One thing I have noticed as I have lived through more and more holiday seasons is that families grow pretty fast. You may go to someone else's house to gather for Thanksgiving or Christmas, so, for you, this isn't that big of a concern.

Perhaps you really don't care, and this is an excuse to eat as much as you want without seeing the judgemental faces of your peers as you return with the third helping of your aunt's ambrosia salad.  I have actually been through b...

New Fridge Do You Need a New Refrigerator? One of the worst things that can happen in a kitchen is to have a fridge suddenly quit working. Outside of disasters like a fire or something of that magnitude, I really can't think of something being so cumbersome. If your oven goes out, chances are, you can get by with cold cuts and microwaved food until you find a replacement. Any time a kitchen appliance decides to quit working, it will leave you in an inconvenienced situation, whether the machine in question is a dishwasher, an oven or stove, or a refrigerator.  If you are like me, the times you have had to deal with a fridge on the fritz happened right after a huge trip to the grocery store. Since I don't usually buy a week's worth of groceries for the family, I always feel like maybe my refrigerator just got used to only having a few meals worth of items it had to keep cold and springing a huge load on it was just too much. All jokes aside, I did find out that the...
