Welcome

Welcome to my ever-evolving blog. It started out as a blog on Beachbody workouts and products, mainly when I was a Beachbody coach. I no longer coach, not because I don't believe in Beachbody's programs (I subscribe to Beachbody on Demand and use their workouts every day), I am just not a salesperson and hated that aspect of it. I am more than willing to answer questions about my experiences with their products and the various workouts, and I feel freer to do so without the appearance of giving a biased review of something.

I have also started adding reviews for various things I have purchased like movies, books, CDs, and other products. This was brought about by a fight with Amazon in which all of my reviews were removed over a completely bullshit allegation that I posted a review that violated their terms of service. After going back and forth with the morons in the community-reviews department (even after they admitted that my posts did not violate their guidelines) they restored my account (which took them six months to do), but I have been posting my reviews on my blog to have them preserved in case something like that happens again. And here, I will post uncensored reviews so I will swear from time to time and post reviews that may be longer than Amazon's character limit. Everything I post here on any topic or product is my personal opinion, and I take no compensation for any product reviews I post. I am a member of Amazon's vine program and because I get those products for free, I keep those reviews on Amazon only, but everything I have purchased with my own money, whether from Amazon or some other store/website/outlet, I will post here.  

I also plan to do some longer blog posts on various topics, such as how to learn physics, how to get through calculus, and longer reviews of workout programs as I do them. Basically, whatever strikes me as interesting at the time.  As you can see if you navigate around the blog, I had many years in between postings. During that time I was going back to school to get an engineering degree, and learning material that I avoided my first time through college was a different experience and one that gave me a lot of insight into how to do well in those classes, which I will try to impart here for those who are looking to get a science or engineering degree.

Product Review: Ninja B39010 Foodi NeverStick Premium 10-Piece Bakeware Sheet Set

 


This is a set of bakeware put out under the Ninja line of products. It is very heavy-duty and easy to clean. I have only made a couple of things on the cookie sheets so far, so if discover anything else worth noting I will update the review. But, when making biscuits they turned out perfectly and did not stick at all, and cinnamon rolls slid around like hockey pucks on the ice. Just nudging them with a spatula released them without a problem. 

The only thing I would have liked is a bit different selection of pans. You get two round cake/pie pans but only one bread pan. Personally, I would have liked a second bread pan and one less of the pie pans, especially since you also get a square cake pan. Also, it would have been nice to have a round baking sheet to make baking a large frozen pizza easier and a deep roasting pan. The pan that they call a roasting pan is pretty shallow and would be useless for something the size of a turkey. The selection aside, the pans are very high-quality, can be washed in the dishwasher, although they are easy enough to clean in a sink with some soap and a sponge that you do not need to put them in the dishwasher, and are much heavier than most other bakeware. They are certainly more expensive than a lot of other bakeware, but that is definitely a get-what-you-pay-for kind of situation. These are definitely worth it.
