When you buy something new, packaging is usually just part of the deal. Whether it’s a set of dishes or a piece of IKEA furniture, that cardboard becomes useless after you unpack the box right? No way! By Karen Riley on April 18, 2012 As a lover of shoes, it can be a real bummer when a favorite pair meets with a tear or fray. But have no fear: in a case like this you don’t have to be a cobbler to remedy this pedestrian problem.
I finally got the chance to put together a how-to guide for creating a wax seal out of a wooden dowel. This started out as an idea that even Derek was skeptical of. I have to admit that I get a lot of ideas that work in my head, but not so much in real life. However, once it was finished and actually worked, well, let’s just say we were both psyched that I was able to pull it off.

These ombre Easter eggs from Sugar and Charm are beautiful. If you're dying your eggs at the last minute like I am, here's a technique worth checking out. I'm eyeing these chocolate-dipped nuts from Allison of Some the Wiser over on Good Eats as a very tasty sweet treat. I have a real sweet tooth, but lately I've been trying to curb my sugar habit.

Note from Weeks: Both my husband and daughter are restless sorts. When our daughter was little and we went to a restaurant, Bill would take her out to run up and down the sidewalk while I paid the bill so she wouldn’t start squirming at the table. Those kids who kick the back of your seat on planes have the same issue. Therapists refer to them as “sensory seeking.” One therapist explained to me that the way I would feel if I sat in a car for ten hours straight is how she feels after sitting for one hour.

What brand of AA battery gives you the most power for your dollar? Software developer Denis Hennessy approached this question kinda like the price-per-pound approach he uses when buying groceries. With batteries, he looked at cost per watt-hour. Hennessy bought a bunch of AA cells, and tested them on a homemade circuit built from an Arduino controller and an LCD monitor. The apparatus sucked a full charge out of each battery, one at a time, using a fixed resistive load. As the battery drained, the LCD gave a second-by-second display of voltage and the amount of energy generated, in Joules and watt-hours.
