7 Things We Learned in Week 6 of 2011 (tips, Cavs, shoes, email, Facebook, singles)

Uses For Aluminum Foil

Over at About.com I watched a short video that gives 5 Tips For using Aluminum Foil (besides just wrapping leftovers). (1) Unclumping brown sugar; (2) Ball it up and throw it the dryer to keep the static from your clothes; (3) to iron clothes; (4) sharpen scissors just by cutting it; (5) make a grilled cheese sandwich by using an iron!

CAVS

The Cleveland Cavaliers broke the NBA record for longest losing streak--with 25 and now have 26 losses in a row!

Wet Shoes

Stuffing newspaper inside wet shoes helps them dry faster.

My Funny Dad, Harry

Men like my book too! I got an email this week from a blogger who gave it to her father for Christmas and said he LOVED it! Made me feel good!

Facebook

After reading How To Protect Your Facebook Account by Rebecca at The Older Geek, I learned that we should check our privacy settings frequently because every time Facebook does an update, the settings are set to the public default without telling us! Also unused apps should be deleted--she explains how and much more.

Singles

When visiting Heading Somewhere I learned the Valentine's Day is also referred to as "Singles Awareness Day." I never heard that before but it's true. Before I was married, Valentine's Day was always a reminder that I was STILL single or didn't have a boyfriend. My dad always bought me chocolate though so it was still good! I never minded being single.

Survivor Redemption Island

Oh boy, just found out at EW.com this morning that Boston Rob and Russell will both be on "Survivor" again. I like this show and looking forward to see how this new "redemption island" twist affects the game.
