Indulge in a Delicious Dinner for One
After spending a hard week in the office, it was time to go home and grab some beef tenderloin. When I return home, I’m unsure of what I want to cook, so I say, “Hi Bixby, find me some recipes with beef tenderloin.” After hearing a few options, I choose the recipe that sounds the most appetizing and begin cooking right away. Bixby says that the secret to making this dish delicious is roasting the meat properly. The Sensor Cook is used to cook the tenderloin until medium. The kitchen hood turns on automatically as soon as I start using the induction, so I continue to cook without worrying about any lingering odors in the house. Although I am not the best chef in the world, I love cooking perfectly seared steaks.
Before I start eating, I open the window to feel the spring breeze. SmartThings Cooking suggests a wine to complement my steak as I prepare it. The air purifier then turns on when the air is filtered through the window. After taking pictures of my first successfully cooked meal, I take a sip of wine. It feels as if the fatigue from an exhausting week just melts away.

Take Care of Your Pet From a Distance
These days due to a work-related project, I’ve not always been able make it back home in time. Max has been staying home alone more lately, and I am worried. Thankfully, whenever I miss him, I open the SmartThings app to check on him. The app used to alert me when Max was alone. However, these alarms decreased once he started training with his vet. He is doing so well at home, which I am proud of. I turn on the lights and TV with the app in the evening so Max doesn’t feel lonely. It looks like I’ll be working overtime again today, so I fill up Max’s dinner in his bowl through a feeder in advance.
Suddenly, a SmartThings Home Care notification pops up from my parents’ house. I turn on my parent’s Jet Bot AI camera to look around, discovering that my mom tripped on the kitchen floor. I immediately call her, and she says that she cried out for help when she fell and couldn’t get up afterward. She said that she was not hurt. Max and I are going to be visiting Max this weekend.

Keep Your Golf Clothes Lasting Longer
I enjoy spending my Sundays with friends playing golf. To keep my new golf shoes clean and in good condition after a round of golf, I store them in the ShoeDresser. The shoes are comfortable, so I want to keep them in good condition and wear them the next time I play 18 holes. After putting away my shoes, I go to the dressing room and put my golf wear in the AirDresser. SmartThings Clothing Care suggests a washing cycle that is perfect for my pants and golf shirt fabric. I save this cycle as ‘My Golf Care’. From there, I use the time I saved to organize the rest of my gear.

Celebrate Spring With a Deep Clean
As the weather gets warmer, I always bring in the new season with some spring cleaning. I start by planting some flowers and washing my winter blankets. SmartThings alerted me to change my purifier filters a few days back. The filters arrived just in time, so I replace them right away.

I look forward to the upcoming spring season.
