My sister reads while soaking in her extra-deep tub. She does a lot of hard manual labor, so the soak at the end of the day helps. I, on the other hand, had a fall in the tub some years ago, permanently damaging my leg. So, I never use one.
My new tech this year was my Iphone 8Plus. I needed to replace my flip phone which wasn't going to work in 2020 so bought Iphone with prepay plan instead of planned Itouch purhcase. This has been great - not only can my Mom hear me when I'm shopping for her, but Miracle Ear upgraded my hearing aid to bluetooth for free so I can hear audiobooks while driving and doing errands right through the hearing aid! The new tech for my Mom was an ereader holder that held her ereader up higher so she isn't bending her neck. She's 85 and reading was becoming painful. She has a board that rests on the chair arms and then she puts the ereader holder on that. There are plenty of different designs, but look for tablet stand to get the most variety. |

Opened my Christmas Homepod....two together sound amazing. There is the increase in volume and the stereo separation. Can't wait to try it on a movie. With just one home pod, it's not QUITE loud enough (I like it loud).
I hope Apple comes out with a HomePod Subwoofer at some point. There is plenty of base -- but I like to FEEL THE RUMBLE |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Templa...f_cooking_oils The Extra Virgin Olive Oil that many people have around the house has an extremely low smoke point. It is not really for heating. You look at it crossways, and it smokes in retaliation. The highest smoke point is for Avacado Oil. You can buy this at Costco. Personally, I use Peanut Oil most of the time. When heating my cast iron, I use an infrared thermometer to check the temp, so I don't heat above the smoke point. Infrared thermometers are cheap and work well. Here's the one I have: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 |

Julia Child swears by a pinch of salt in the bottom of the skillet before putting the steak in. I've never tried it myself. S |
