This week’s blog is all about Optimism. And what better place to find optimism than at an Abilities Expo. DinerWear® was honored to participate in the most recent Abilities Expo in the New York Metropolitan area. Even the name of this event is optimistic. Instead of the more commonly used term “Disability,” they use the …
It’s important to eat healthy when you are caring for someone else. Today, an estimated 65.7 million Americans, or nearly 30 percent of the general population, provide care for an older adult or someone living with illness or disability. (n4a.org/caregivers) That means we have that much more demand on our time. Add to that the emotional …
Resources for caregivers Yesterday, a colleague shared his parent’s response when he had a problem: Don’t bring me a problem unless you also bring a solution. As problem solver’s DinerWear® loves this philosophy. We know that our everyday lives are full of solutions. When the car breaks down, we figure out how to get it fixed. When there’s …

As I think about optimism, I think of all the sayings that promote it. So this blog will be devoted to many of …

Saving time is one of the many benefits of wearing a Cravaat® dining scarf, which is why we devote a category of blogs to time saving tips. This week we have a new perspective: When it comes to time-saving tips, there are so many blogs out there about it (even my last time-saving blog), that …
Are you as frustrated as me with our political environment these days? All the rhetoric is focused more on the problems than on the solutions. If our presidential candidates thought like entrepreneurs they would be spending all their time talking about solutions. As an industrial engineer and plant manager, my entire career was about finding …
DinerWear likes to play on this adage with An Ounce of Protection is Worth a Pound of Laundry, because it is such a logical approach to life. PREVENTION is defined as: the action of stopping something from happening or arising. We put on sunscreen so you won’t get burned. We wipe up spills so we …
Functional Fashion is all about using fashion to solve a problem. That’s what the Cravaat® dining scarf is all about- wearing an adult bib without anyone knowing it. Because style is a hallmark of our products, fashion seemed a fitting topic for our blogs, especially fashion with function. And wouldn’t you know, just as I set out to write …
