Snooty? Not me! I am not into hot pink that's all. And Pink is way overdone these days...don't you think so?

Silk is fine to a point...it's become ubiquitous IMO.

Hehehe... That game brings back good memories when my kids were young. Connect Four, Scrabble and Clue were Christmastime staples during the holidays. They were and always will be good cheap fun.

I'm just glad I don't have to shop for you dear... it's not about it being pink... its about a really rude response to a very nice and classy gift suggestion that wasn't even addressed to you.

I'm thrilled actually...it saves me an exchange trip to the stores. Or just a garbage drop.

I believe she thought the color was tacky.


But I don't care.

I was right the first time... insufferable snoot. And that's putting it kindly.

I guess I already knew I am dang lucky in the family department... People who come up with excellent gift ideas, and who are nice, thoughtful, and would never casually return a gift for something better, or throw a gift in a garbage drop. They'd know how hurt a giver would be to discover that.

But then they'd care about that...

Not quite sure why I did. It certainly brought me no joy. :~D

Excellent suggestion Petronski, and I know somone it would be super for. I'm thinking about it! Are they washable?

At one of my early tailgates this season at the Meadowlands for a Giants game, two guys across the parking lot aisle from Connecticut had a gas powered blender. AWESOME!

Ask Cyborg, she has the package/tags. I believe they can be gently washed in cold with Woolite.

For goodness sake, though, no tumble dry!

I already told you - I dislike the color!

Stop picking fights when there aren't any to be had.

And I don't need to be lectured by an anonymous you on Christmas giving.

I will point out to you, gently and in the greatest sense of goodwill, that they are available in four colors.

I disagree on how badly you should be lectured, but I'm done... you're someone else's problem, not mine :~D

We found it, and they are machine washable, it says... Point taken on the dryer! Thanks :~D

Four colors...wow!

Seriously they could come in handy. Thanks.

Almost anyone could love the "natural" or "black."


And my dearest tells me they are very cozy.


Be well.

Actually, that's something I'd probably want to get for my dad. We always lose the "temperature fork". Plus, my dad has to switch between regular glasses and reading glasses, so I have to read the stuff to him sometimes... as he puts it, "sucks getting old." :-) A talking one might remedy this....somewhat.

Are you looking for gifts for a male or female?

Both.
