Stopping phone spam<\/strong>
\nFor the past 2 years I\u2019ve been using the free\u00a0Nomorobo<\/a>\u00a0service to stop spam calls on my landlines\u00a0and it works fantastically. A few months ago I started using the paid\u00a0Nomorobo app<\/a>\u00a0on my phone, and suddenly all those dumb spam calls have ceased. There are a number of phone spam eliminator apps, but Nomorobo is one that does not scarf up your friends\u2019 phone numbers in order to make its white list. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n

Airport terminal guide<\/strong>
\nGateGuru<\/a>\u00a0is a smartphone app with a lot of travel features, but the only one I use is the amenities list. It will show you all the eateries, shops, and services located in your terminal, along with the location. It also has user ratings for the places. I use it to find the best place to eat when I\u2019m waiting for a flight. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n

Streaming art<\/strong>
\nI\u2019m enjoying this stream of old science fiction art, mostly from the heydays in the 1970s. Comes as an\u00a0Instagram<\/a>,\u00a0Twitter<\/a>,\u00a0Tumblr<\/a>, or RSS feed. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n

Best inexpensive hair curler<\/strong>
\nOver the years I\u2019ve spent anywhere from $20 to $150 on heat styling tools, and this\u00a0$25 Remington Curling Wand<\/a>\u00a0is the best hair curler I\u2019ve ever owned. It heats up in 30 seconds and the curls keep all day, even through the next day. I owned the smaller \u00bd-inch wand for 5 years before I bought the larger 1-inch wand and now I can curl all my hair in less than 5 minutes. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n

Longer-lasting herbs<\/strong>
\nIf you are lucky enough to stumble across these\u00a0lightly dried herbs by Gourmet Garden<\/a>\u00a0in your grocery store, give them your money. I always buy up basil, cilantro and parsley. They last more than a month longer than fresh herbs and taste just as good. Here\u2019s a\u00a0store locator<\/a>. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n

Zippered mesh pouches<\/strong>
\nThese\u00a0small Japanese zipper pouches<\/a>\u00a0are made a some kind of sturdy, fine mesh so you can easily see what you put in them. I bought an 8-pack for $9. It includes four 8\u201d x 5.5\u201d pouches and four 9\u201d x 7\u201d pouches. They\u2019re great for travel. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
