Elegana 10 Pieces Premium Kitchen Ceramic Knives #Elegana_Ceramic_Knives

Elegana 10 Pieces Premium Kitchen Ceramic Knives #Elegana_Ceramic_Knives

Before receiving this Premium Ceramic Knife set, Oma knew nothing about ceramic knives. I learned that the hardness of these ceramic knifes gives them their long-lasting good looks, as well as a razor sharp edge that does not require sharpening for years. This sharpness makes slicing easier, allows precise cuts and extremely thin slices.

However, while ceramic blade are stronger than steel, it is also more fragile because it is more brittle. That means that if you drop a ceramic knife or attempt to cut bone or frozen foods with one, it can break or chip.




The Elegana set is really very stylish. I love the different colored handles. The set comes with a Green 3" Paring Ceramic Knife; a Yellow 4" Fruit Ceramic Knife; a Red 5" Santoku Ceramic Knife; a Blue 6" Chef Ceramic Knife; four matching Color Protective Sheaths; a dark blue Ceramic Peeler; and a Polishing Microfiber Cloth. These tools are FDA and LFGB Certified and BPA Free.

Tip: Hand washing is recommended.

Sportly Push Up Bar - Set of 2 #LoveParkProducts


Set of 2 - Incline Pushup Stands for Home Fitness Training

 

Sportly Push Up Bar - Set of 2 #LoveParkProducts

Let’s face it, exercising can get boring pretty quickly. Therefore, Oma is always looking for ways to keep it interesting.

 

Besides keeping it interesting, using push-up bars can offer training benefits. When you do push-ups without a bar, you place your palms flat on the floor, forcing your wrists into extreme hyper-extension. This can lead to pain and nerve problems. The Sportly Push Up Bar allows you to perform push-ups without wrist discomfort.

The push-up bar also allows you to go down a little deeper without having your chest touching the floor. This is actually a very beneficial factor that helps you develop strength and active flexibility over an extended range of motion.

The Sportly Push Up Bar is made from a high-quality Industrial Grade PVC. It is light weight yet very sturdy. They snap together easily and are also easy to disassemble if you want to throw it in your suitcase.  I love how the thick foam padding prevent slipping. 

The Sportly Push Up Bars are shipped in a lightweight zip lock bag, saving you $3.00 and helping to protect the environment.

12 Times Mass Shootings Were Stopped by Good Guys With Guns (12)

Part 12 of 12


As Oma is a Southern Californian, the massacre in San Bernardino last week hit close to home. It is so sad but a reality of everyday life in America. However, Oma maintains the philosophy that guns do not kill people . . . . . . . people kill people. Put a gun in the middle of the room and if no one touches it, no want gets hurt.

Oma will not shy away from teaching her grandchildren about weapons. Emphasis must be place on helping our younger generation learn how to deal with others and to remain aware of their surroundings. They are the only one who can keep themselves safe.

Rather than write about the two shooters who I have chosen to leave nameless; Oma wishes to honor the fourteen who died and twenty-one injured by re-posting a Controversial Times article written by Hunter Roosevelt on June 23, 2015 about the heros were seldom hear about; people who use their guns to stop violence.

Mercy Fitzgerald Hospital
July 25, 2014




A patient at a psychiatric clinic killed his case worker at point blank range and then turned his gun on his doctor, Lee Silverman, striking him several times. Before the gunman could leave the office and continue his rampage, Dr. Silverman drew his own concealed handgun and pumped three rounds into the gunman’s torso, mortally wounding him. Police and hospital staff hail Dr. Silverman as a hero and credit him with saving dozens of lives.

Cache Valley Hospital
May 16, 2014

 


Armed with two handguns, a man entered the Cache Valley Hospital emergency room and began making demands. After demanding to see a doctor, he racked the slide on one of his handguns and told hospital employees “someone is going to die today”. 

While a security guard tried to keep the gunman’s focus on him, two corrections officers who happened to be at the hospital on an unrelated matter engaged from another direction. The gunman was shot three times and no other people were harmed.

Christmas Lights-Candy Cane Lane

by Stacey Kuhns


Candy Cane Lane is located in Poway. It is really Hickory Street (Butterwood Court) and the zip code is 92064. It is approximately three and a half blocks of decorated homes.

I had never been before but according to our driver, it was not as fully decorated in years past. Still, there was a number of amazingly decorated homes to see. There are lots of people out and about, families walking the streets, and lots of slow traffic so use caution when driving the area.

It was raining the night we went so I was unable to get a lot of good photos. Many of the homes have the families standing outside giving out hot cider, hot chocolate, cookies and other Christmas fare. It is a safe, festive place to be for you and your family and seems to have something to make everyone smile.

There was even a home that had a small theater area set up with chairs and they were playing kid-friendly movies. All in all, a cool place to visit that is maybe closer to North County folks than having to drive to the Lights on the Prado in Balboa Park.

(I do wish the photos came out better, but was in a moving car in the rain - Much better in person)

Austin, Texas Construction Site
April 30, 2014

 


An irate former employee came to a construction site and opened fire on his co-workers. The site’s foreman, a Concealed Handgun License holder, drew his firearm and opened fire. Both men were wounded in the exchange of gunfire but the foreman’s actions ended the attack and no one else was wounded.
