How to overcome a food coma

Did you go a little too heavy on the mashed and gravy yesterday? Did you really need that second slice of pie - however teensie? Did you forget to put your hand over your wine glass when someone started to pour? (In our family, it's not necessarily the host who pours: it's whoever's closest to the bottle(s).)

If you're like most Americans, you're just getting over your food coma.

Thanks to my sister Kathleen, I have the perfect antidote:

Cured? I thought so. The shock alone...

The above picture is of a "sexy turkey hat" and ultra-practical tea cozy from craftsperson extra-ordinaire Angela Catirina.

Check out the holiday patterns - this is actually not the only turkey hat available. Check out the tea cozies - I particularly like the eggplant and the artichoke.

You don't have to be a knitter or a crocheter to appreciate the designs. Just wild.

And just another testimony to the creative capacity of the infinitely interesting and entertaining American economy.

Happy Day After Thanksgiving.
