Ok, maybe the dollar store.  This post over at craftstylish.com is totally amazing and will change my wintery world. It’s a  total “why didn’t I think of that first” kind of craft.

We have several of those heating pads you put in the microwave and we use them often during the winter.  The idea of putting a small, felt bean bag (or rice bag) into a glove is pure genius!!!!  I don’t live where it gets crazy cold during the winter (that’s my brother in Montana and my cousin is Alaska) but its still darn cold when starting the car.

I’m going to make a few of these for my daughter, sons, mother, husband and myself and anyone else I can think of.  This would have been a rockin’ Christmas gift!  Oh well, at least I have a friend that has a birthday in two weeks!

Yes, I’m a geek and I love geeky toys.  For Christmas I was given an awesome iPhone from Hubby (thanks Hubby :-X) and I have slowly been adding to the apps on it.

I found “Lightsaber” and it is so fun (and free too – woot).  You choose a character, like Darth Vader our one of the characters from Star Wars: Force Unleashed, and you get their lightsaber.  When you turn on the lightsaber, there is the familiar “hum” that comes from the speaker.  When you move the iPhone around, it sounds like you are having a lightsaber fight.  The best part is, there is a button that can add a soundtrack to your fight just like in the movies and video games!  How awesome is that?!?

For those who want to create their own character that is also possible.  My oldest thinks that is just so cool and is dying to create one on my phone.

If you are a fan of Star Wars and looking for a cool app for your iPhone than this is one for you.
