Alderbrook Resort is really an amazing place. I highly recommend checking it out.

Toby loves “making muffins.” I don’t know why we call it that — I’m fully aware that you don’t knead muffins. In any case, it’s pretty cute. I was bored the other day and threw together this really quick and silly video of him.

This post is an experiment with HTML5 video. If you have a reasonably modern browser (not including IE), it should work for you. If it doesn’t, you can see the video on Vimeo too. Let me know in the comments what your browser is if you can’t see the video (unless it’s IE, which I know doesn’t work).

1Z Einszett Cockpit Premium may be one of the only cleaning products I’ve ever bought that I could say I actually love (yes, the SpotBot is another). It’s designed for cleaning the interior surfaces of your car. There are a ton of products on the market for that, but most of them are terrible. They make things shiny or greasy, and they leave behind a nasty residue. 1Z Cockpit does none of those things. It gets the car really clean, but also leaves matte surfaces matte.

The ad claims it has a “light, fresh citrus scent.” I’m not so sure about that. The scent isn’t offensive, but it doesn’t smell anything like citrus to me, and I’d prefer no scent at all if I had a choice. But that’s really the only drawback to this stuff — I really love it.

For the record, I don’t use 1Z Cockpit on all of the interior of my car. I use Lexol products for the leather, Plexus for shiny plastic pieces and Klear Screen for LCD screens. But on every other hard surface, 1Z Cockpit is amazing.
