Friday, May 25, 2007 Fun Finds

My friends at Koo Koo Bear Kids sent me a completely adorable towel-in-a bag last week, and I was all set to give it away in a splashy reader-contest but then I remembered as I was heading to a friend’s for a pool date that although I bought new swim towels for the children this year, I still had the ratty old Polo towel from a houseboat trip to Lake Powell in the summer of 1992.

So, it’s my towel now. Heh.

And I do love it so! It comes in a little bag of its own, not too big, just right for the matching towel, a book, lotion, a fifth of scotch and a few cigars. It’s perfect, really.

And I wish I had a photo to go with Dylan’s declaration that it doubles as a hat for when you’re really cold coming out of a heated pool in the evening air. But my hands were full, what with all of the other things. And I think that was my child with the towel bag on his head. Or her head. Anyway, it was cute.

And darn absorbent for such a conveniently compact thing. It soaked up nearly half a bottle of spilled scotch. Now it’s all ready to go to Capitola with us for the holiday weekend!
