Cuddledown of Maine is having a
pillow sale do you know of them? If not let me tell you they have some sumptuous and downright delicious creature comforts.
Linens, pillows, shams, PJ,loungewear for femmes & down comforters, some much too rich for my wallet.
Andy Ed & I discovered them on our ride up to New Hampshire, last October.
Whilst searching both pillows and bedding I found this poem,
(on their blog) I thought it worth sharing,judge for yourself.
As an aside, do wash your down
comforters and pillows every 6 months
do make sure the covers are sound so you don't have the mess I made when washing
someones favourite pillow which burst (so sorry Coach)for that matter place the pillow in an addtional case for washing, tis better safe then sorry, I assure you, you will be sorry! :D
For those interested find more facts on dust mites here the little nasty critters, oh yuck! :P 
"I Was Mean to You Today
by Pat Schneider
Things were difficult
and I was impatient.
You were trying to explain
why I must reorganize the files
on my computer, why
they all have to have project numbers,
why I can't put them
where they've always been,
what the tax consultant said,
what you need for your report
to the Board of Directors,
and it boiled down to my files
have to be re-filed, and they
have to have titles with no more
than twelve letters to leave room
for project numbers,
and I said, Well, dammit.
And you said, Don't talk like that.
You sounded pained
and I was mean to you.
I was bored and tired
and mad, and you were
trying hard. Later,
I went out in the rain.
I went to the mall
and bought us both really
expensive pillows. Down
pillows with 100 per cent
cotton covers, 400 thread count.
I have lusted after them for years,
ever since Mama told me
that she asked Grandma,
who was 86 and dying,
"If you could have anything
in the world, what would it be?"
and Grandma answered,
"A down pillow" and Mama
didn't have enough money.
I bought two down pillows for us all,
to say I'm sorry."
