Website Wednesday – Free Printable Grocery Lists

Wednesday, August 18th, 2010

Here’s a great little application to make your life much easier. 

Grocery List – Free Printable Grocery Lists.

Here’s what they have to say about themselves:

 NEW! Interactive Grocery List   

Simply use your mouse to check off the items that you need, add any notes for yourself at the bottom and then print and shop!

Sometimes home organizing doo-dads end up being too complicated to bother with.  This one is simple, it does one thing and does it well.  Enjoy!

Website Wednesday – TSA.gov

Wednesday, August 4th, 2010

I don’t often recommend offical goverment websites, as they are often long on the official and short on the helpful.

However, in planning our first ever family vacation where we’ll be flying, I’ve found the Transportation Security Administration’s site to be quite useful.  You’ll find the section for travelers here:

http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/index.shtm

Here you’ll find:

  • New Security Measures for Passengers Traveling to the U.S.
  • Traveling with Food or Gifts?
  • How to Get Through the Line Faster
  • Liquid Rules: 3-1-1 for Carry-Ons
  • Acceptable Identification at the Checkpoint
  • Prohibited Items
  • Travelers with Disabilities & Medical Conditions
  • Traveling with Children
  • Traveling with Special Items

No, you cannot bring your machete on board the plane, but neither can you bring cranberry sauce or maple syrup.  Go figure.
