 | Glass Cleaner |
 | "Glass Installers Recommend" | 2008-10-17 |
My wall-o-mirrors in our dining room became loose and I needed them professionally removed and remounted. When finished, the two installers wanted to clean them so they looked perfect but had left their normal cleaning product at the shop. When I showed them my two choices Sprayway and Windex they said "Spraway is the best. We only stock this at our warehouse and use it all the time" and that is from two men who have done this for over 40 combined years in the glass business. I put one in each bathroom and one in the garage. I use it with a microfiber cloth. Besides getting any dried insect googies off, it makes our windows, glass picture frames and mirrors sparkle. You don't come back later when the sun shifted to see streaks your other glass cleaner left behind. I have seen this at Costco for about the same price as Amazon.

 | Libbey Vina Stemless 17 Ounce White Wine Glasses, Set of 4 |
 | "Jumbo Wine Glass" | 2008-06-30 |
These are fine glasses, very versatile and a good value though I have lately seen them in stores like Target etc for the same price. I decided to replace my stemmed glasses, even though prettier than these "plain janes" because I used to have 8 and now have 6. I do want to point out the size listed is an accurate 17 oz. These are REALLY BIG glasses. You may find the money you saved on inexpensive glasses is spent on buying more wine when you use these big boys. And don't try to get away with saying "but officer I only had two glasses of wine".

 | Color Ink Cartridge (18L0042) |
| "Good Value; Easy" | 2008-05-31 |
I ALWAYS buy by ink cartridges from Amazon primarily because it is so easy, it is a good quality and value especially with free shipping and I receive it quickly in the mail.
I like to order my next cartridge when I load one in my printer so I don't run out. Ordering from home with the box in hand means I don't have to write down the number of the cartridge I need. There are too many different ink cartridges in the retail office stores. If you do find it, you have to take a coupon to the cashier, wait in line, then wait for them to bring the item. Often I spend additional time and gas going to one or more stores or I forget about it until I have an emergency printing project.
I found that buying the proper cartridge rather than refillable ones makes dollars and sense for me. I also take the empty cartridge to Office Depot when shopping for other office supplies and get money back for recyclying my cartridge.

 | Circulon 2 18-by-10-Inch Double Burner Griddle |
| "Love this Griddle" | 2008-02-08 |
Heavy and does the job expertly. Covers both burners so you can do a family's worth of French Toast or Pancakes or bacon or whatever you might need to grill. I put a cup of water on it after removing the last food and after breakfast, use a brush to clean it as the little swirls are no match for my sponge. But it really does the job and is worth the price. Gave one to my sister for Christmas and she loves it too.

 | Live Butterfly Garden |
| "Nothing short of "miraculous"" | 2007-10-17 |
Four caterpillars were "raised" in one good-sized BUTTERFLY GARDEN this September/October in coastal California. I can oly imagine how many you could place in the larger one! We got to watch them pupate and emerge as Monarchs over the course of about 4 weeks. I only had to supply the milkweed from our garden and I purchased a water vial for $.25 from the flower section of the grocery store to keep the branch fresh. It is a wonder and a miracle happening before your eyes. We also watched two cocoons located outside but having them inside and getting to see the progress at any moment is amazing. Meanwhile we are growing more milkweed and stored our BUTTERFLY GARDEN (which conveniently collapses) until our next opportunity to propagate more Monarchs. I highly recommend this "toy" and this experience to anyone...singles, couples or families. Prepare to be totally dazzled.

 | The Butterfly Book: A Kid's Guide to Attracting, Raising, and Keeping Butterflies |
| "Companion to "Butterfly Garden"" | 2007-10-17 |
Wonderful kids book on "raising" caterpillars. I purchased this to go with the Insectlore Live Butterfly Garden with 5 Butterfly Certificate I also bought from Amazon.com The book enhanced my first butterfly-raising experience... and I'm an adult. The book also describes how to make a container to watch your caterpillars turn into butterflies but I prefer and totally enjoyed my Butterfly Garden.

 | How to Do Everything with Your Sony CLIE (How to Do Everything) |
| "Love my Clié and love this book" | 2007-03-13 |
Goes beyond the manual. I have had my TH55 for a couple of years and am still learning what it can do. Most of us just do the minimum with electronic devices--a need to know basis. But this gave me a lot of ideas to more thoroughly utilize my beloved PDA and a spare resource manual. Me? I don't want a cell phone that does it all. Maybe that will change in a few years but for now my Clié is my mostest, favoritist electronic gadget and this book secured its First Place.

 | John Denver - Legendary John Denver |
| "I miss John" | 2007-01-16 |
Love this CD. It has all I wanted plus more songs I didn't even know I needed. Now I even miss him more. I always felt emotionally attached to his music, his voice and his sentiments. What a legacy; to leave something so meaningful and beautiful to the world. Wish he was still with us, don't you?
