I wanted something my husband could take to work and get hot on the engine of his truck. He gets tired of pop-top soup from a can, so now he can take delicious dinner leftovers and let them warm up out in the field.

Primary use: Personal

I have been using stainless steel bottles like this for 6 months now and am CRAZY about them! I MEANT to get the smaller size, but THAT'S OK - I now have gifts to give to my loved ones who are STILL USING PLASTIC WATER BOTTLES. I like the easy to clean loose threading on the large mouthed opening that facilitates adding ice and makes drinking more pleasant than the smaller openings I have experienced. It has the mouth feel of drinking out of a champagne flute to me...similar size.

I Am A: Couple No Kids

I figured these would be good to put in my husband's lunch - he breaks the plastic ones so easily - if he breaks this one it will just be part of the compost! No more plastic for the landfill. I thought they would be a little bit bigger, but that's OK - he'll get used to them. I wanted something that would fit in a tier of the stainless steel lunch box I got for him.

Pros: Quality Construction, Attractive Design, Compact, Easy To Use, Convenient

Describe Yourself: Casual Cook

I use it mostly for leftovers after eating out at restaurants to stop the wasteful use of the Styrofoam boxes. There are 3 in the family so we can each have our own level, and the little cup is super for those delicious sauces we used to forgo bringing home to prevent messes. I attracts attention when we walk in with it all stacked up and shining. . . GOT IT AT GREENFEET.COM! I was worried my elderly Mom might have difficulty with the clasps, but they are not overly tight. They do hold securely, though. I do like that it is arranged so you can use 2 layers if you don't need all 3. It is a bit smaller in diameter than the 2 level one I also got for my husband's lunches.

Non Toxic Mosquito Repellant

<----This is the only good mosquito.

I just wanted to mention that the past couple of nights before I walked my dog I have tried spritzing myself with vinegar - exposed skin on neck, arms and legs to keep mosquitoes away. . . and it seems to work! Prior to that I was being accosted by those little arthropod vectors unmercifully. . . especially at night between 9 & 11 PM. 

I have NO idea how long the effects last, but for the time I was outside - 20-30 minutes the mosquitoes occasionally touched me, but departed immediately without biting. I had to shoo them away from my face once, but I didn't spray my face - maybe I will tonight. 

Yesterday there were about 100 of the little creeps swarming in the shade of my front porch, so I tried the Listerine trick - I had some knock-off citrus mouthwash that I sprayed all over the door jamb and the walls and floor out there. I'm telling you - the mosquitoes were SWARMING like crazy.  A little while alter I checked and there might have been a dozen left, no more than that. 80-90% reduction is substantial for not using those toxic bug sprays. I will check again later today to see if the swarm is back, but I just wanted to post my immediate findings before I got too busy today.
