POCKET-SLEEVES SAVED MY LIFE

Well, not really. But they are pretty cool!

When you put a SCARFFIE on (and there is no right or wrong way) you have put on an amazingly versatile garmessory. Yeah, that's not a word, I just made it up, because a SCARFFIE is a garment and an accessory.

The original concept was to make a scarf that could be used as a towel (terrycloth!) and a beach bag, and a wrap, and a purse, and a privacy curtain, and a shawl, and... That idea grew and expanded and worked it's way from the water to the city and on into the mountains, day and night SCARFFIE found a niche. You can get SCARFFIE's in really cool and luxurious fabrics and textures and even for kids and men. But let me tell you about how the pending patent Pocket-sleeves saved my life...

Pocket-sleeves, when I first saw them, I thought, wow, that's convenient...who would have thought it would be Pocket-sleeves that would save my life.

It was a really hot day, like in the 100's and I was really thirsty. You know that kind of thirst that makes you feel like you are eating cotton? So, I head to the  gas station to get one of those big frosty drinks. I like the blue one, even though they call it raspberry, and I always thought raspberries were red, I still like that one best. So I go in and pour my drink. The correct way, by the way, is to put that dome top on first and then squish the drink through the hole, knock it down by tapping it on the counter and then filling it the rest of the way. Anyway. I've just got this thing for those drinks... So I get to the counter and start digging through my purse for my ATM card. Just at that moment I have a flashback to the day before when I ran into the store and stuck my ATM card in the back pocket of my jeans. In my mind's eye I could see the jeans lying across the foot of my bed. Did I say I was really, really, REALLY thirsty? I thought I was going to pass out. So I told the clerk that I need to go get money out of my car, I'd be right back and I started to leave and then I thought about what I was doing...Am I really going to leave my blue raspberry frosty drink on the counter with the lady who was chewing her nails and talking on her cell phone about her, in her words, "meth-head boyfriend?" In a panic I started to go through my pockets...lint and 2 pennies. GRRR! But wait! I was wearing my new SCARFFIE with Pocket-sleeves. Could it be possible? I reached into one of those generous pockets and found that I had kept a five dollar bill in there! WooHoo!! My salvation!

My lips may be blue but it's not because I'm dying... Pocket-sleeves saved my life!
