Ooh, so hot! Great article, thanks!

Oh nice!

I got one of these several years ago because I just missed the simplicity of having one to warm up with. We did have one in the house when I was a kid that my grandparents left, so the idea didn’t come out of nowhere.

I rarely use it now since moving away from that icy hellhole in the Midwest but I still keep it around. You never know, I might need it when I get old and infirm

I use these at night if my feet get too cold, but this was a great reminder I can use them at other times too! Turned down my heat but am very cozy with a blanket and a hot water bottle.

Also, making covers for them was a great beginner crochet project.

Our cats really like the electric heated pillows to lay on. We keep the house ~60F so if we're out for a significant period of time, the hot water bottle wouldn't work. Plus good luck getting a kid to hold on to a hot water bottle while moving around.
