Exfoliation Tip of the Day

By Stephanie -
Need an interesting way to exfoliate your hands and make them smooth as a baby's behind, while being extremely productive at the same time? Prepare a ham for baking. The salt, brown sugar, and other seasonings that you rub on the ham will create the "satin hands" effect. And whaddya know? You'll have a perfectly seasoned ham to put in the oven once you're done.

That gross to think of your dead skin on something that people eat :)!

Well, if you want to get really technical about it, you leave dead skin cells on just about everything you touch! :-) But really, you wash the spices and sugar off in the sink and that's when you notice your hands are smooth. :-) Besides, how many people remember your mom and grandmother preparing a ham in latex gloves? We know they're good for peppers...but ham? Dunno about that.

Who cares about a few cooked skin cells (besides that of the pig we now call dinner) when you could have found a finger in your chili? Ew.

This begs the question, though...what am I going to do with all that ham?

So, who's going to host the next dinner party with ham? :) I think we need to have a cook-out soon. This weather is so begging for it!

Post-Run Tip of the Day

By Stephanie -
This is a tip for those who might run where giant swarms of gnats sometimes loiter by the side of the road. This tip stems from a run on the Mayan Riviera in Mexico, but I've encountered swarms of gnats in Virginia and Kentucky as well. After your run, always stop and look in a mirror before going into public. Otherwise, you might actually complete a transaction at the resort store and greet five people before realizing you have up to 15 gnats stuck to your face and neck.
