Zero gravity massage chair


Some of these sell for over two thousand dollars, but this massage chair is $299.95 at midnightvelvet.com.

It got four out of five positive reviews. One person didn't think it was "comtably." (You got me.)

Anyway, here's the product description:

Experience comfort like never before! Zero Gravity design reduces stress on your entire body—making it ideal for those with back problems. Four vibrating, massaging motors and heat add extra comfort, with time and intensity adjustable by remote. Soft vinyl cover gives it a stylish look that's easy to incorporate in any décor. A simple turn of the knob, and it adjusts the recline from upright to fully reclined (the zero gravity position that relieves pressure on the spine by raising the feet above the head). Sturdy steel frame. Massage/heat function uses AC adapter (included). Assembly required. 29" w x 42" h x 47" d. Choose tan or black.

Today's pick: Wall fountain


I couldn't find any ratings for this product, but I am posting it because I like the idea of having a fountain you can hang on the wall (therefore, you don't have to worry about devoting a table to it or pets drinking from it). And it's fairly inexpensive.

$59.95 for orders prior to Dec. 15 (after that the cost is $69.95)

Here's the product description:

Illuminated by LED lights, the wall fountain evokes the sparkling calm of harbor lights on the water. Resin with submersible pump and AC adapter (included). 14" diam. x 3" d.

Comfort food time again



I highly recommend these, especially if you love traditional chocolate-covered cherries. These are just as good but less messy.

Plus, according to www.nutsonline.com, they also have health benefits including:
Health Tips

1. In addition to being rich in potassium, vitamin C, and B complex, research has shown that cherry consumption can help the body prevent heart disease and cancer, as well as improved bone health.

2. According to researchers, a flavonoid found in cherries that has anticarcinogenic properties called quercetin can help to prevent heart disease.

3. Anthocyanins found in cherries also block inflammatory enzymes, reducing pain. In fact, 20 cherries are 10 times as potent as aspirin and have positive effects on gout and arthritis pain.
