I have issues falling asleep and if something is distracting me I will not fall asleep that night if it hits me wrong.

Im a big fan of wool dryer balls. They seem to help a lot with static and making sure that large single items actually get dry.

Learning to use recipes and then learning you don't need them are the two most important parts of learning how to cook imo. The first time I make something I use a recipe every time after that I do not and just go by feel/vibes unless I am trying to make something authentic.

It does in fact soften fabric. I use it for blankets to keep them in that nice smooth state. Yes it increases ware but the enjoyment of the blankets is enhanced dramatically imo.
