Although some people may feel a bit strange about keeping a supply of certain items in the house “just in case”, it’s always better to be over-prepared than under and, believe me, you do not want to find out for yourself the hard way. In the event of a blackout, you need a reliable supply kit to get you by without power, and included below are just a few essentials to start with.

It’s safe to say we’re all entering 2021 with high hopes and what better way to harness what you want than with a calendar or planner that really speaks to you.

Amazon Homemade is a magical place to peruse for unique gifts without leaving the house and the current list of most wished for items is a true treasure trove. I actually crossed a couple of people off my holiday gift list while pulling this post together so I guess the early bird really does get the worm! The early bird also avoids anxiety attacks and expedited shipping costs if he's proactive enough.
