Walking in Winter
Warm up this winter by walking and looking forward to spring.


There are plenty of excuses to skip your workout and do, well, nothing. However, it’s February. Before you know it, you’ll be by the pool or heading to the beach. In the meantime, get yourself in shape and looking – and feeling – better with some outdoor walking.

No-Snow Winter Fun
What it lacks in the fluffy white stuff, it makes up in fun.

We have plenty of white sand, water and palm trees. Enjoy this winter with some of the best outdoor activities the Sunshine State has to offer. From water park rides and water sports to relaxing on the beach, winters in Florida add up to fun.

From Camping to Cruising, the 2009 Honda CR-V Is Ready When You Are
The CR-V will be such a part of the family, you’ll give it a name!

It’s no wonder the critics gush about the 2009 Honda CR-V. Here’s a typical conclusion: "This is an excellent vehicle and a great value – possibly the best compact SUV on the market today," stated About.com. Or, how about this conclusion? "Honda has taken the positive attributes that make the CR-V its perennial best-seller and added style, better handling and a hint of cool,” concluded Motor Trend.

2009 Honda Ridgeline Adds Power, New Look and More Standard Equipment
More than 50 features are new or significantly changed.

Unlike other automakers, Honda puts recreational pickup truck users first with the 2009 Honda Ridgeline. For 2009, Ridgeline gets a gutsier torque curve, bolder styling and a standard trailer hitch highlight, not to mention numerous upgrades and new features. Already an innovative truck, the 2009 Honda Ridgeline is a true standout among pickups.

We Love Movies
Warm up this month to films that everyone in your family will enjoy.

If winter leaves you cold, head to the movies for a night of fun. Whether it’s with your family or a date night, there are plenty of films out this month that will keep you laughing (and maybe even singing along). Get that box of popcorn or candy and enjoy the show!

What Grade Do You Give Your Engine?
By the way, this is no “knock-knock” joke!

You pull up to the pump and usually have three choices: Regular, Mid-grade and Premium. Are these grades the equivalent of “good, better and best?” Have you ever been tempted to give your car a “treat” and upgrade? Do you really have to feed your high performance car that outrageously priced Premium grade?

Take a Time-Out for Breakfast
This winter, warm up to delicious and healthy breakfast treats.

Before you run out the door, take the time to stop and smell the coffee. In fact, why don’t you sit down and enjoy a healthy breakfast? It seems that we’re always on the go, even when we have nowhere to go, and as a result, the most important meal of the day is often forgotten.

Changing Your Home’s Motif and Mood This Winter
Inexpensive, simple ways to turn your breezy summer cottage into a cozy winter lodge.

Since no two seasons are identical, your home shouldn’t look the same from one solstice or equinox to the next either. Feng Shui, Chinese for “Wind and Water,” is the science of balancing elements, both physically and spiritually.

Do You Really Need to Break in a New Car?
It’s a common question with one answer and a lot of opinions.

First, let’s stress that the owner’s manual for your car is the authoritative guide to any break-in procedures. Almost all manufacturers have recommendations in these handbooks. That being said, engine break-in is subject to opinion, just as are oil change intervals and tire pressures.
