A visit to my mother-in-law

will involve eating delicious food, exchanging family news ... and bedding information. My husband's mother worries that we might not be warm enough ... or too warm. After explaining how the bedroom windows work (open/closed to varying degrees) she tells us that she has made up the bed with 'one of those aerosol blankets'.  

I imagine that we will spend the night in a giant nest of cuckoo spit.

  1. Aerosol blanket??!
    It creeps up on you [not the blanket] - worrying about being too hot or too cold. I spent a silly amount of time wondering whether I should switch to the winter duvet, and then wondered if I should switch back. I'm sure I didn't ponder over these things when I was younger.

  3. Being back in Los Angeles right now is beyond confusing! We had the Savannah winter duvet on AND 2 cotton blankets! It's in the mid 90s in the south right now. I'm not sure if I'm really ready for this weather. xoxoxo
