Traction Aid

I noticed what looks like a new product on a recent trip to Costco. It's called 'Get a Grip before you slip'. It's a traction aid that you slip over your running shoes. Wonder if this would help in the snow and ice?  I think I'll just wear my boots.




I got the 2013 Milk Calendar in the newspaper and am going to try a couple of interesting recipes in it. One of them is 'Dark and Delicious Chocolate Velvet Cake', it uses beets and cocoa and seems quite healthy and simple. Here is the recipe.

  1. That does sound like a good recipe. I'm curious about the taste.

    I could use one of those traction aids. I'm getting more clumsy the older I get.

  3. The recipe looks more appealing than the traction aid.. I love everything with dark chocolate. I think that will be a good recipe :)

  5. Won't chopping the beets for the cake cause your hands to turn red? I have never cooked beets in my life. Let us know about your experience.
