Simply Calphalon 6 Piece Bakeware Set
$29.99
Unlike some of the other non-stick products out there, I found that this one lived up to it's claim. It's easy to clean and wonderful! As long as you follow the directions and don't use abrasive sponges, I feel it will last a long time.

Simply Irresistible
$9.98
Ah Sean Patrick Flanery is gorgeous [and has gotten better with age as Hollywood men tend to do], and Sarah Michelle Gellar has come such a long way since this movie. I love the fantasy aspect of it; that all things are possible if you just really want it badly enough; and I love the relationship side of it - from his point of view, it's honest and well acted. They make a lovely couple on screen; the supporting actors are all outstanding - the Auntie drinking on the job; the quirky PA obsessed with Jonathan... it's just a great little movie.

Surviving Cold Weather: Simply Survival (Greg Davenport's Books for the Wilderness)
$14.95
The best part about this survival guide is Davenport's descriptions of "improvised" items. Most people don't plan to be in a survival situation in freezing temperatures, and may not have the proper equipment. He teaches you how to use survival items you have purchased and may have with you (such as an avalanche beacon or a signal flare), but also what to do in a situtation in which you don't have what you need (improvising snowshoes, stick and shadow compass, etc). The section on constructing emergency shelters gave detailed instructions for many options depending on what resources are available - trees, ice, and/or deep snow. He even provides pictures as proof of his methods. The information on how to obtain food, especially berries, and how to navigate without a map or compass was also extremely helpful. The only disappointing thing for me in this book was the information on animals. Many of the descriptions seemed cut-and-pasted, with really no specific tips on how to avoid polar bear attacks versus brown bears versus pumas.

I bought this book because I live in Alaska and was hoping to learn something that would keep me from becoming one of the many people that do not survive in the wilderness out here because they are unprepared! I bring it with me when I go backpacking or camping, because you never know. I recommend reading this book if you spend time outdoors in cold weather, whether you put yourself in risky situations or not. You'll learn not only how to be prepared but how to stay alive if you are lost or find yourself without adequate transportation, food, or shelter.

Stevita Co. Inc., Simply-Stevia, PURE Stevia Packets, 100 Count box
$10.19
This is a handy product because it is so convenient to carry in you wallet or pocket for access to a good sweetner. I have to mention though, even though it says no bitter after taste, that licorice taste is still there.
