Old Spice’s ads have been going for it for a few years now, I liked the Bruce Campbell ones they did a few years back.  This one is ahead of everything else.  Imagine how many takes it took to get him to say this with a straight face.  They still make Old Spice though, who’s buying it?  Who wants a musk odor as they go about their day?

lazo-throw-orchid So I recently came across this blanket at Z Gallerie and loved it because it’s one of my favorite colors and it’s also so very, very soft.  Eventually I gave into the temptation and bought it after trying not to since it was kind of expensive.  However, now I’m firmly in love with it and couldn’t be happier.  In fact, I redesigned my new bedding and some accessories around this blanket.  It’s 50″x60″ which is the perfect size to curl up and read or watch TV.  The back of the throw is just as soft but not fuzzy, more of a velour-type material.  The best thing about it is that it doesn’t shed!  There have been plenty of fuzzy blankets that have come before that shed and quickly got dumped.  I’ll be hanging on to this one for a long time to come.  This lovely blanket gets a ★★★★½ because it’s just that awesome but still a tad on the expensive side.
