So thankful for little luxuries. As my dear son likes to tell me, ‘it’s the
little things.’

The Beauty of a Throw
I’m in love with the impressive ‘magic throws.’ They’re all the rage. You know which ones they are. Super soft throws that are velvety, warm and
snuggly. Regular old blankets cannot
compare; and they give a kick in the pants to the ratty looking snuggie! These throws are as soft and silky as can be
and come in a myriad of colors, designs and sizes for babies, children and
adults. There isn’t a store that isn’t
carrying some kind of throw or blanket in the new microfiber, microlight, silk
touch plush, super soft cable knit, sherpa-lined, velour plush, elegant fleece,
or my new favorite - luxe faux fur. You
get my drift! Just throw one of these on
and you’re in a toasty heaven that can lull you to sleep faster than all the tryptophan
in your Thanksgiving dinner. Right now I
have two in my car and three in my house.
There’s one for every taste and even the most discriminating person can
find a beautiful throw to fit their need and personality. So, why are they so popular? I have a theory. You know how small children have security
blankets? Throws are really adult
blankies. Maybe this is a stretch, but
for me, the minute I come in contact with it I immediately feel comfortable,
warm and safe. The first thing I do
nowadays when I get home is sit or lay on my bed and grab my little pink
throw. I’m definitely attached!
