Stormglass Weather Forecaster


My husband is always complaining about the poor track record of our weather forecasters. His running commentary seems to suggest that these meteorologists are merely guessing. So this weather predictor, used since the 18th century, will be his next gift. Supposedly in tune with the electromagnetic changes in the atmosphere, there are 5 crystal formations which predict whether changes.

Layover in Philadelphia? What to do....

I have very little tolerance for long layovers. It seems that I hardly ever have to stop over in an interesting place and if I do, I don't have long enough to make the long trek from the airport to the good stuff.

Philadelphia is the perfect city to enjoy a long layover. It's vibrant, interesting, fun, and accessible. The airport is extremely close to the downtown area and the grid is easy to navigate. There's something for everyone in Philly.

stash card- the secret drawer for your laptop


I love hidden things- secret drawers, camouflaged safes, and anything slightly mysterious. My dream house would not be complete without a secret passageway.

Now you can make use of that unused PC card slot on your laptop with this secret stash drawer- it seems like it'd be a good place to store money when you're traveling. Unless your whole laptop gets stolen, but let's hope that doesn't happen.
