Unboxing Insights
Agricola is a great new game that has hit the boardgame world the way the Beatles hit the pop music charts. Its a complex game for 12-year-olds that I decide to introduce to 8-yr-olds and their parents while trying to understand it myself. Great learning experience - for me.

Laundry Insights
Just got a new high efficiency washer/dryer. So I am seeking insights into the laundry process.

Claim: Making laundry is easy and costs one tenth what Tide costs.
Tide is only one of two things that I buy by the brand so it will be interesting to see how far I go testing or incorporating them into my life.
