It’s cold outside. Another Winter storm is coming. You’ll probably be confined to the house for a day or two. What to eat? Here’s a favorite that is ridiculously easy with only three ingredients, but it takes a while. The ingredients you need are: 1 lb bag of dried pinto beans 1 lb diced ham...

Back in 2013, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) started a program for travelers known as PreCheck. The goal of the program was to make the security process easier for frequent US travelers, and after using it myself for 4+ years I can confidently say it’s a must-have item...

Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport (CAN) claimed the number one spot for busiest airport in the world in 2020 with over 43.7 million passengers. CAN saw 73 million travelers in 2019, so these numbers are still down significantly. How far do you think CAN will drop in the rankings in 2021...

Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL) was previously the busiest airport in the world, seeing over 110 million passengers in 2019. COVID caused these numbers to drop 61% in 2020, with only 42.9 million travelers going through the airport. Still, this was enough for ATL to claim...

Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK) has historically been one of the top five busiest airports in the world, ranking number 2 in 2019. COVID took a massive toll on PEK’s traffic, which was likely due to the lack of business travel. This caused the number of passengers to drop 65% in 2020...

Kunming’s airport saw 32.9+ million travelers in 2020, making it the ninth busiest airport in the world. This was a big jump from 2019 where it was only the 37th busiest, even though there was a 30%+ decrease in passengers. Pretty impressive for a city that many people have likely never heard of!

This tool is a must for a griddle for clean-up after you’ve cooked a weeks worth of groceries in an afternoon. The griddle will have all sorts of grease and residue on the cooktop and a scraper will make quick work of the clean up. Don’t griddle without it!

For the true griddle chef! Great for those that add pancakes to their breakfast griddle and cuts down on the mess. Pull the trigger until your pancake is the size you want, then move to the next one. You can even get the pancakes close to your eggs if you have the egg rings!

Cooking eggs on your griddle is great, but sometimes the whites of the egg may go places you don’t want them to. Solve the problem with some egg rings. They’ll keep egg nice and tidy and your guests will wonder how you got them so perfectly round. The rings will also work in a pan on the stove...
