    Safe (non-toxic) air freshner

    Have you ever tried Smells Begone? It's non-scented, non-toxic, non-aerosol. I think it's charcoal-based.

    I feel like a terrible mom..... Long

    That really bites! I'm sure your mom meant well, but still she should have respected your wishes. I think your final decision is perfect, btw. Have fun!

    Which DVD would you save????

    I'm saving Drill Max, or maybe Muscle Max. I'll gladly throw Keli Roberts' Body Bar Strength & Conditioning in the fire. (Love Body Bars, don't love Keli -- sorry.)

    Do you wear make up when working out?

    I always work out after work, so I just take a tissue to wipe off some of whatever foundation might still be left at the end of the day (I use it very lightly). I always wash my face very well after I work out, and I'm afraid that washing it before as well will upset my ph balance. Although I'm...

    I loathe leg presses!

    Not my favorites either. But I know they will be VERY effective at keeping my butt from sagging, so I just do it and get it over with. LOL!

    How do you save 1/2 an avocado or banana?

    Anybody have a successful method for saving 1/2 of an avocado or 1/2 of a banana for a day or two? Also, I saw a banana in my elderly mother's refrigerator, but I've never refrigerated a banana before . . . is she losing it, or does it really work (without turning brown)?

    UGH! I am hating self tanners........

    Laura, Here's a couple of tips: 1. You MUST exfoliate your body first. Use any sort of scrub that is not oily. If you can get a Clarisonic Plus to use with a body scrub it will be great. The exfoliation will greatly reduce dark spots. 2. After you apply your tanner (I prefer Kate...

    OUCH - I Fell Off My Step

    Kim, I love your writing skills! (I'm wondering if you're a Brit.) I've had small trips and falls a few times over the many years, but with no injuries more serious than a minor ankle twist, thank goodness. Hope your ankle heals soon! At least you can laugh about it!

    I don't get it

    It really tanks! That's why we we only buy food and beverages that we would consume anyway (not anything special for somebody else), and only food that can be frozen or not opened.

    Any odd (but awesome) benefits from strength workouts?

    Increased endurance and power in my piano playing (the really big Classical stuff). The change is really quite amazing to me.

    Question for All You Dog Walkers Out There

    Carrie, I'm right with you on the walks in the frigid weather. Except I finally decided never to walk when it's icy -- just not worth the risk. Think of training your dog's walking as though you were training any other skill or trick. I used treats as rewards for walking next to me, or for...
