U.S. News & World Report used to have a feature I enjoyed, "News You Can Use".  Instead of "finds", I  now adapted that term to be "News You're Sure to Use"  in my blog, which are products and services I've found and like. This month you'll find a more expanded list than usual, with home services; tips on fashion, grooming, travel; jewelry repair; even a new business idea;  and some darn good empanadas (you know me, had to get the food in). Hope you find these useful. And love to hear your "finds" as well!

Here's a tale of our experience, and guidelines for staying safe at beauty salons and barber shops.
