Comment of the Week: The Popsicle Solution

popsiclesDIY popsicle mold, $9.99 at Amazon

Earlier this week we published a letter from a reader who loves playing with ice in bed…but hates the way it freezes her fingers. She asked for a solution, and you guys came through!

“One word — popsicle. Put a few sticks in the ice cube tray. And prepare a good cover story for when people ask you why you have popsicle sticks in your ice cubes.”

— Evan, commenting on the post “How Can I Stop Ice From Numbing…“

Speaking of a cover story…

“You could tell people it’s a weight loss trick… You are trying to convince your brain you get treats when it’s really just water.”

— Elizabeth, commenting on the same post

By the way, if you can’t figure out how to make popsicles in your ice cube tray, you might want to invest in a DIY popsicle mold like this one (pictured above). $9.99 seems a small price to pay for a lifetime of chilly foreplay…just don’t make flavored popsicles unless you’re prepared for a sticky mess!
