As long as we're discussing P.O.S.H. in the same breath with garage and
yard sales. I've discovered a neat solution to weeding while wearing
gloves. Until recently, I've not found weeding and gloves to be
compatible. Then I discovered kid gloves. Not garden gloves but the ones
worn by the ladies who used to use those dainty sterling teaspoons. A nice
tight fitting pair fit like a second skin and allow me to "feel" the most
delicate weed root. I generally shop for these in the local thrift stores.

Please don't tell Martha.
