So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Bag Coolers In Depth

By Jennifer Bryant


The best way to keep food and drink and chilled when temperatures are soaring outside is through the use of an ice cooler. Soft coolers are really convenient because they are easy to tote around. You can bring them on a picnic, on a kayaking trip or when you go for a run. They can be used to store drinks, food and snacks. Great snacks that will easily fit in a cooler include; sliced fruit, popsicles, frozen bits of fruits, and even salads.

Coolers were originally known as an ice box; the first one was invented by Richard C. Laramy. The majority of coolers are manufactured from plastic; some of which are hard and others of a softer material. Ice cubes and ice packs fill up the interior in order to keep everything chilled.

Coolers come in all sizes; some are small while others are large. Some can be carried via a handle, tossed over the shoulder or worn as a backpack. Different colors are available; some come in a plain color like black or white while others are decorated with a bright hue and fun patterns.

The ideal cooler is one that is well insulated and leak proof. It can be quite a hassle if the cooler bag leaks because you will be left with a big wet mess to clean up. If you plan on doing strenuous activity such as kayaking or hiking in the wild outdoors you will want one that is extra durable and also portable. Look for one that is easy to tote around; you don't want a heavy one that will be a hassle to carry around.

Curious as how to keep the cooler as cold as possible? The amount of ice you use has an effect on how long everything stays cool. If you want it to remain cold for a long time it's better to keep it closed at all times.

If there is a shade available place the cooler there. That will make it stay cool longer than exposing it to the sun. Coolers aren't just for drinks; they can also used to bring food. If you decide to bring food it's best to bring two different coolers and mark them so you know which one is which.
