Nap + Cuddle = Nuddle
The weather is finally turning cold here in Colorado, which means that it's time to begin our annual battle over the thermostat.  My husband turns it up, I turn it down, and round and round we go until April.

I think I might have finally figured out a way to get him to wave the white flag of surrender: the Nuddle Blanket. Which is for us for a change, and not the kids.

This ultra-soft, super-plush microfiber blanket is like no blanket I've ever seen. First of all it has actual armholes so that I can read or type or sip a glass of wine while staying covered. Plus the lower hem is turned up to form a pocket for my feet. So smart! Creators Jenn and Todd Feldman have truly thought of everything--this is the smartest grown up blanket I've ever seen.

Too bad I've got to hand this wonderful blanket over to my thin-skinned husband. Maybe he'll buy me one of my own for Christmas. -Julie
