Of Nuts and Pests: An Ode to STDs
Have you been feeling vaguely aware of something all month, but you're not sure what?   In addition to being National Decorating Month, Pharmacists War on Diabetes Month, and National Grilled Cheese Month, April is also STD Awareness Month.  It's hard to get people excited about becoming more aware of something that we're also telling you that you don't want and (subtext) that you should be ashamed of having.  But that's the topsy-turvy world of sexual health.  If you've already expanded your consciousness around Lyme Disease in Dogs, Straw Hats, and Testicular Cancer (also all in April) take a few minutes today and flip through some of the links below.  It won't hurt as much as a needle, and you might learn something that is actually about sexual pleasure!  ~  Cory

What do you know about kitchen knives?

Hi Usman!

How often have you noticed that the perfect tool for the job actually makes the job more fun, as well as easier and quicker to manage?

I find myself reminded of this almost daily, especially when I'm working in the kitchen. Grabbing the measuring cup that is well-suited to the ingredient I'm measuring always brings a smile to my face, as does fitting everything well in a mixing bowl that is the perfect size.

But I've gotta say, there's one part of tool selection that makes a bigger impression than all the rest, and that is picking a knife.

Want to help your clients pick the right knife for the job! Drop by the post What Do You Know About Knives? and get your copy of the brand-new Knife 101 Infographic. It’s a great resource for all kinds of applications.

Have a fantastic day,
