You know what they say about electric nose/ear hair trimmers- buy one before someone buys one for you!! (I think it only applies to men, though, and yes, BF has one. Thank God, because who wants to see ear hair?? I have this ex BF, who had coarse, wavy red hair, and my teenage daughter, who didn't like him very much, called him Goat Boy. She even cut a page out of a kids coloring book, of a goat, and colored it in, and glued sand on it!! and titled it XXXX the Goat Boy. He had some nose hairs that got out of control, and she told him it looked like he had cockroach legs sticking out of his nose!!! Still makes me laugh!)
Lise, for iceberg lettuce- hold the head in both hands, and slam the core down on your counter, and it will pull right out, leaving you with just the leaves.
