No paranoia in falling w/YakTrax

Here I am with another product suggestion! I just got the glow in the dark version of YakTrax, and I was cruising through Northpoint Park with them above.

They work so well! Boston currently has a ton of rotten old snow that's been recently covered with more snow, then rain, which turned into ice overnight, so even if the neighbors did shovel their sidewalk, there is a slick, unseen, DANGEROUS coating of ice on the ground. And my sister had to walk to work this morning, so I let her borrow them, and they remove that fear of falling on ice and snow, and you don't lose time because you don't need to walk slower!

something new NOT to throw away, but not yet...

Long time no post-- In November I heard a presentation by a product development company that works with Recycline- a company that produces all of their plastic personal care and kitchen and serveware products out of recycled #5 plastic. Now you can go to a Whole Foods store and drop off used #5 plastic yogurt cups, etc. and brita water pitchers! About time those things had another place to go besides the trash!  

** Hey, I just stopped by Whole foods all ready to drop off my used Brita water filter, and nope, no place yet to deposit it for recycling. For those who are wondering, it's the River Street market in Cambridge, MA.
