map_mittens.jpgWHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THIS?

Maps of Michigan on mittens:

Erich and Connie Hahne have created Michigan Mittens. Maps are sewn into the palms — the Lower Peninsula on the right mitten, the Upper Peninsula on the left.

Red dots show major cities; a yellow star indicates Lansing, the state capital. A pair sells for $20 on the married couple's Web site.

The whole point-to-your-hand-as-a-map thing has always amused me. Now it goes multimedia.

Here's the site to order your Michigan Mittens.
