• Bra Baby

  

  I never thought I’d be listing a Sky Mall product, but I got an email from Marielle Vena who says:

  “I wore a 36C in the eighth grade and know a little something about bras – mostly that I hate ‘delicates day.’ I have been a slave to hand-washing my unmentionables ever since I discovered that those care tags mean business and ignoring their warnings was going to leave me destitute. I still have to hand wash a few things, but as far as most underwire bras are concerned, this product has been the biggest time-saver in my life. I love it! Try the two-pack and I swear you will have six or eight in no time.”

  Perhaps you make a habit of locking yourself out of the apartment. Maybe you’ve driven three hours to your cabin only to realize you left your keys at home. Say, once or twice, you’ve locked your baby in the car with the keys.

• TomTom ONE Portable GPS Vehicle Navigation System

  

  2007 MOTHER'S DAY GUIDE

  When you give your mom freeway directions, does she ask you to say it again without the “North/South part?” Does she get lost three blocks from home? Yeah. Me too. A friend of ours is a user interface specialist who researched and compared all the popular navigation systems for a client. He eventually bought this one for his folks, so I got one too. TomTom has changed my life, and its touch-screen interface is about as straightforward as an ATM machine. It not only navigates for you, but when you take a wrong turn, it gets you back on track. Go in on one with your siblings, and you’ll never have to give your mom directions again.
