A few words about the Ov Glove

In a nutshell: If you don't have at least one Ov Glove, go out right now and buy one. One will lead to two. Everybody should have two.

It was Christmas 2008 and when my nephew handed me the gift that I'd eventually discover was the Ov Glove, I shook the box and said, "I hope this is Dance Dance Revolution." Don't laugh. I've heard that DDR is a lot of fun and good aerobic excercise.

When I opened the gift and saw it was the Ov Glove, I said, obviously disappointed, "Oh, it's the Ov Glove." My mom (who the gift was from) said, "Don't you want an Ov Glove?" I hadn't asked for an Ov Glove and my mom didn't own an Ov Glove about which she could be excited and want to give me, so, no, at that time, I did not want an Ov Glove.

But I soon became an Ov Glove convert and asked for Ov Glove #2 for Christmas 2009 (which, thank you very much, I received).

How can the Ov Glove improve your life? Let me count the ways.

#1 Even if you go Ov Glove Lite and just get one, your cooking life just became 100 times better. The burns you might have gotten through cloth potholders are now a thing of the past. Your cooking confidence will go through the roof.

#2 Two Ov Gloves are better than one. Your cooking life becomes 200 time better and there is no stove/oven anywhere that can intimidate you.

#3 Ov Gloves are more flexible than those crazy silicone oven pads and mitts, and offer the same (if not more) protection.

#4 If you quilt (doesn't everybody?) you know that you press/iron as much as you sew. And sometimes you steam press tiny little 1/4 inch seams open. It's an accident waiting to happen. But not with the Ov Glove! Although I don't recommend it, you can touch the iron plate wearing an Ov Glove without fear or pain.

There are probably more than four ways to love the Ov Glove (Ov love, I call it), but these are the reasons I profess my Ov love.
