Really? Apparently now even your hands can have their own, specially made grundies. Slightly inappropriate, but very silly, these cotton “handerpants” might do best under your regular mittens for extra warmth. Or if you don’t mind stares, let your handy-undies make a brief, yet memorable statement on their own.

Yeah! Could this week get any better? Minus the nasty cold monster that’s taken up residence in my respiratory system, the past few days have been amazing! My baseball team won, then my football team won (say wha? I know!), then my baseball team won again in an epic tie breaker and are off to the playoffs (yeah Twins!!), I was fortunate enough to see Andrew McMahon play an unforgettable, acoustic set last night at Varsity Theatre AND. . . drum roll please. . .

Fantastic Fred’s M-Cups are finally available for purchase, and you can get yours at Patina online. Woo-hoo! I love these little matroyoshkas made to measure in style. Let the baking begin! And while we’re at it, let’s whip up some Yankee stew. Yeah hoo!
