The world’s softest throw
I don’t usually promote random items. And I’m not a big Macy’s fan recently, having had a problem with a mail order.
But I have to say that this throw, which I recently encountered and gave as presents to several people for Christmas, is a wonderful item and is on sale right now for a great price. If you want to get the world’s softest throw under which to snuggle up, here it is. I think the plaid ones are especially attractive but it’s the tactile pleasure that makes the thing so wonderful.
And I thought you had diversified into sports, ecclectic, and ever curious, but Shirley worth reading. Threw me off.
om,
Yes, I was wondering if that link was to Anthony Fauci or Carl Lewis.
I have a light blue sherpa, and it is warm. My cat likes it tooo.
$19.99 is a good price, but here in NYC I can get it for free by just walking out of Macy’s with it.
Why pay retail! 🙁
Property is theft after all. Or so they teach in school.
Costs are passed down to everyone but the criminal. 🙁
Jimmy,
Yes, but are you double (or is it triple?) vaxxed to go into that Macy’s?
That’s the real crime.
Not kiddin’ here . . . honest . . . when I saw “The world’s softest throw”, I thought to myself, gonna be about the knuckleball, even though it’s not nearly baseball season.
Wro-o-o-ongg!! [ smile ]
I trust it’s a wonderfully soft product. That said, whenever I see a product advertised as, “the best ever” or “the ultimate” or “the world’s softest” etc. yellow flags go up. How would they know? Have they checked every single other competitor’s product? Of course not.
In a less acquisitive society, advertising would happily limit itself to what I once read of in a Reader’s Digest section, while waiting at a doctor’s office.
Somewhere in New England on the side of an old milk truck; “Brown’s Milk, Good as Any, Better than Most.”
Likely now out of business, given our shopping habits. But the milk today doesn’t taste as fresh as it did in those old glass bottles.
I received one of those throws for Christmas last year. I love it. It is the most snuggly throw I’ve ever had. I hope you have one.
Ruth H:
Yes, I got a green and blue plaid one for myself.
Thanks for the recommendation, Neo! I just ordered one for pickup at my local Macy’s.
Who else thought this was going to be about Obama throwing like a girl?
Following expat– I learned years ago that a good definition of a “soft throw” is “cat magnet.” My two are presently curled up on a throw that a friend in Michigan (where they know about winter!) gave me for Christmas two years ago. It’s not sherpa, but it’s thick, warm, and feline-certified.
@Neo:
Ladies, try one of these:

in fetching Violet Cockatoo. Tastefulness and Tactility are givens. You can trust me!
If Ruth H endorses it, I will probably buy one for my wife.
Looks like it comes in solid colors, too.
Trust Martha to get it right!
This foray into shopping is novel and refreshing!
Looks wonderful. I wish I had one just like it.
Geoffrey Britain,
King County WA, you can still get milk delivered.

You appear to be a PNW Native, so…
A long time ago I bought a bag of chocolate coated cherries in a candy store in Bellevue Square. All I can remember is that the store wasn’t on the ground level and the item described was delectable. Pretty sure I was told at the time that the brand (whether this encompassed the store or just the choc cherries I no longer recall) was a longstanding local institution.
Does it ring any bells?
Z:
May have been Chukar Cherries made in Prosser, WA(?). They made milk and dark chocolate covered cherries and other ‘healthy’ candy (contains fruit and chocolate, sounds healthy).
The Chukar is a non-native pheasant type bird that was introduced into Eastern Washington which does very well in the shrub steppe habitat of the Columbia Basin and Columbia Plateau. Likes the basalt slopes and cliffs. Hunting these birds involves lots of walking over steep slopes I’ve been told, not for the couch potatoes.
Chukar Cherries are still in business FWIW. They are very tasty.
Thanks Om. Had a look and quite likely it was their Classic Dark Cherries.
I thought maybe a post about soft ball.
