OMG!!!! OVER the top self-indulgence on teevee ......
I'm watching HGTV. They're doing some show or another and talking about new stuff for homes. They just showed the "latest use for those drawers used in the kitchen to keep your food warm" ....... in the bathroom ..... for towels!

I'm sorry. We just bought one of those warmer drawers a year and a half ago. They are **NOT** cheap. We use ours often for its intended purpose. But for warm towels ...... ?
:eyes:

1. When all four kids were home,

and we still lived in Ohio, we put an extra shower in the laundry room for the "overflow", since six of us didn't easily share two bathrooms.

In the cold winters in our old "breezy" Victorian, the laundry room became THE place to shower. You could toss a big bath towel in the dryer while you were in the shower (and I put my terry robe in too). Ooooooooo.

3. These 10 most "most" bedrooms is on now
Maybe this is best left for the DYI forum - but oh my! When it's this upscale I can only glean ideas. Reminds me that there's always the show that emulates expensive rooms on a budget. That's my kind of program!

5. I have one of those standing towel warmers
from Bed, Bath, and Beyond for about $40 and I LOVE it! The towels aren't as thoroughly warmed as they would be in a drawer but they still feel pretty good! :D

6. Hey, that sounds great!
I could use one of those. I could pre-heat my clothes in the morning, and reheat them every time they cool down and then I wouldn't be cold anymore. (In fact, would the oven warmer-drawer work for that? Maybe I'll stick my jeans in there and find out... Gives new meaning to the term "hot pants," no?)

8. Huh?
You got a problem with drawers in your drawers?

(Besides, I can't find setting for "pants" on the microwave.)
