In the last year, I began using my scooter increasingly. I recently got a custom power wheelchair. I was surprised how different they are, not just in the way they work, but how I carry things when using them. Here are some products I have found to be extremely helpful in day-to-day life. All of these are also on my store . I will be adding to there as I find items which are helpful. I do earn a small commission on some of these, so I appreciate you clicking through the links. I’d love to hear about any ideas you have too! Use the link on the side of this page to contact me, or email Marcia@MarciaFrost.com .

Girl w/Knife also sells journals, wrapping paper, and notepads. Everything is available in stores around the world and you can also purchase them online on their website .   An ethnic variety in this cook...

As we get ready for Back to School and the end of summer vacations, everyone is looking to keep things as simple as possible. I’ve got some product ideas and recipes that should keep every member of the family happy. Keep it warm… I’m not sure where HotLogic   has been all my life while I struggled with bringing leftovers to work. There’s usually one microwave and everyone is lined up to use it. Rather than waste your lunch hour waiting for it, pick up one of these lunch boxes. HotLogic starts at $30 and is your own little portable oven. You can not only use it to reheat food (from fresh or frozen), but it can also cook food, albeit not at microwave speed. You can pick up a  HotLogic  at Amazon. They come in various colors and sizes.
