STP Multipurpose Motor Treatment Review #engineluv #CBias
This is a guest post by my husband, Craig, who takes care of our vehicles. I enjoy taking care of the basic maintenance needs for our vehicles – a 2005 Acura TSX and 2004 Toyota Tacoma.

Shark Portable Steam Pocket Review
While the kids and I were out of town, my husband decided to do some cleaning. This is a guest post from Craig about the latest tool he’s added to his domestic arsenal. When I am left at home alone, or when I accidentally make my coffee too strong, or when I’m just plain bored, I have to clean. Last weekend, my wife and kids were out of town. I decided to make myself some coffee … Read entire article »
