The Blogging Boomers have a variety of offering for you this week. What emotional type are you? What about your spouse/partner? SoBabyBoomer wonders what happens when opposites get together. The Midlife Crisis Queen is blowing OFF STEAM with her new blog while the Accidental Locavore cooked up a tasty baked asparagus fries recipe for us. And Tom Sightings wonders how one goes on vacation when you are already retired! On the financial front, Rita Robison tackles the problem of switching banks. And from Arabian Tales, Dubai walking tours of the souqs and the historic Bastakiya neighborhood. Even if you can't get to Dubai you will enjoy an "arm chair" walk through these exotic locations.
SoBabyBoomer tells us that of
all the ways that opposites attract, the thorniest may be when emotionally giving types pair up with types who are emotionallyreserved.
Laura Lee felt somehow limited by her popular Midlife Crisis Queen blog, so she started "The Midlife Queen Blows OFF STEAM!" where
she solves MOST of the world's problems, one blog post at a time! Laura would also like to recommend that
you see The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel!
Fresh asparagus are one of the great foods of
spring! The Accidental Locavore shares a recipe for Baked Asparagus Fries, a sure bet for even
fussy asparagus eaters!
Thanks,
Tom Sightings wonders: How can you go on vacation when
you're already retired? He notes in A Short
Vacation that retirement is never an all-or-nothing
condition. And besides, just because we're retired doesn't mean we can't
be busy!
This
week, Rita R. Robison, consumer journalist, wrote on The Survive and Thrive
Boomer Guide about the problems consumers have switching
from banks to other financial institutions. Switching takes time, and it costs money to close an account
and transfer funds, a report by Consumers Union, the advocacy arm of Consumer
Reports found. Some banks also set up “zombie accounts,” accounts that have
been reopened after they’ve been closed, if any activity hits them, which can
result in substantial charges.Consumers Union also found in its investigation that the top
10 banks didn’t give consumers clear information on account closing policies.
Katie recently picked up
a small assignment from TripAdvisor
that has been so much fun - create 5 walking tours of Dubai. The first two of my EveryTrail creations are published: “Shopping
the Dubai Souqs” and “Bastakiya,
Historic Dubai Neighborhood.” Those
of you who live in Dubai, or are visiting Dubai, please try them and let her
know how it goes. You can leave your “vote” on the walking tours’ web site and
leave her a comment on her blog. Enjoy! Arabian
Tales and Other Amazing Stories
