Some of my favorite things

Picture hanging strips from 3M.

Now you don't have to put holes in your wall! (This is a huge deal for my dad.)


Granted, I haven't ever removed the strips to see what it does to the paint, but from what I gathered from google, most people say they remove easily.

They are easier to determine where to place than a nail (in my opinion), and you also have some flexibility as to where exactly to put it, which is a very good thing for me. It seems like even though I try, I always end up a little bit off, so these took care of that problem. They also make it really easy to level the picture.

My cordless iron. Today I ironed something on the floor and used the vertical steaming on Jon's church shirt. It is marvelous. I love it.

My rice cooker. I am currently cooking a bit of rice for dinner with some veggies in the steaming basket. Granted, I could accomplish the same thing on the stove, but for some reason I love this. Maybe it's that it's cooking 2 things at once. I don't know, but it just seems like less hassle for some reason.
