I Never Thought I'd Learn to Knit

Posted by Darwin Garza

If you had told me when I was a kid that I would end up being someone who knits, I would have laughed in your face. I'm the least creative person you will ever find. In high school, I took a home economics class and barely passed the course. So when my best friend asked me to attend a knitting class with her at the local community center, I didn't want to go. I thought it would be a disaster. Fortunately, I decided to take the class with her and loved every minute of it. My knitting teacher was patient and knowledgeable. In fact, she was so skilled at teaching knitting that I learned to knit too.

It's been about three years since I took that knitting class, and now I knit all the time. I really enjoy watching Direct TV while I knit. It's a great way for me to relax as I sit watching my favorite show. I usually like to knit things like blankets and scarves. Then I just give them away to family and friends. One day I'd like to try knitting a sweater. Knitting is such a great way to keep the hands busy when you're in the waiting room of your doctor's office. I'm kind of shy so when I'm at a social gathering, I like to bring my knitting along so I can knit while I listen to other people talk.

FreeLoader Solar Battery Charger

I know there have been times when I've been playing on my PSP or listening to music on my iPod, and the battery dies. If you're near an electrical outlet, this isn't to bad of a situation, but there are other times when I can't get to an electrical outlet when my battery died (there's a restaurant in Dallas called Loft 610. Great place to eat, but they have virtually no outlets). That's where the FreeLoader comes in. The best way to describe this device is that it's a compilation of mini solar cells, is very portable, can easily be charged up, and holds onto the power it has obtained for up to three months (pretty cool, huh?). After you get it charged up you can then use it to charge up your electronic devices and gadgets such as your MP3 player, iPod, PSP, and so forth. This device of convenience is just barely bigger than a cell phone and is made of aluminium (the lightweight variety). Plus, the FreeLoader can be pulled open to uncover not one, but

MrBeast Burger - My Experience

  *** DISCLAIMER: At the time of this writing, I did not work for MrBeast or any of his affiliates. Also, I used my own money to pay for the meal mentioned and reviewed in this writing. If you have ever scoured the Internet looking for entertaining videos besides the latest cute cat video... You have, undoubtedly, come across a video by MrBeast . MrBeast is a very well known Youtuber with millions of subscribers stretching across several channels. In his videos, MrBeast, along with friends Karl, Chris, and Chandler can be seen doing crazy stunts and giving away large sums of money to people of various walks of life. Recently, MrBeast decided to create MrBeast Burger - a virtual restaurant brand where people can use a branded mobile app or website to order fast food items delivered to their door ( in some areas, you can actually pick up the items yourself, but at the time of this writing, that option was not available in the DFW area ). \ I really do admire all of th
