Linda you are the last one in the US and he is the last one overall and in Canada

I shared mine with two ladies who came over Easter weekend.

I loaned a pair to my SO and she kept them!

Hetty that sounds just like you

Rick I would keep them too

With a dozen pair, I GUESS I can spare ONE pair!

P.S. Even the 370 non-thermal gloves keep my hands warm when it's cold out! And they aren't clumsy like leather gloves or mittens.

I keep trying to give pairs away...Neighbors come over to talk while I'm pulling weeds...I make the offer, but for some reason No one wants to take me up on it! Can't imagine why not!

Sandy,
These gloves are THE BOMB!

When I put my new ones on this week, they were kinda tight, and I wondered if Atlas had downsized on the QT (seems EVERYone is downsizing on the QT...).

Then, I realized all the years of activity I put my old ones through had actually STRETCHED them.

It felt good to have on a brand new pair of snug gloves, LOL!

Hugs!

I can't agree more! Wonderful!!!

It makes my heart smile to here all the raves on your new gloves. Not only are the gloves DA Bomb but all of you are too

I can't imagine why What's wrong with your neighbors ? :rolleyes :

hey all you happy glove buyers... do any of you PECANS?

Sandy has another thread in this forum that I didn't want people to miss... she has loads of lovely papershell pecans, and she's selling them at a bargain price. I used to get them in season at roadside stands in GA, and I bet they now sell for about the same cost including flat rate shipping, so for those of us who don't live in the deep south...

Wondering what "papershell" means? Oh, you're in for a treat. We don't get these nuts around here... the shell on these pecans is so thin that you can crack them by squeezing 2 together in your hand. If your hands are reasonably strong, you can crack most of them singly, too, but it's more fun to have pecan wars, contests where you see which pecan is the strongest and lasts longest cracking its opponents.

Maybe it's partly the satisfaction of cracking them yourself, but nuts in the shell are always the sweetest, and these certainly are delicious! Thanks, Sandy!

Great pecans. We sit around eating them as though they were peanuts in the shell. Just as easy to crack and much better tasting!

Thanks Jill and Teri. I still have bunches of them. We have run out of cracked ones and need to start cracking again. I love to crack them watching TV and David like to pick them out.
You can freeze them cracked or uncracked in a ziploc bag. Make sure it seals tight and air proof as pecans are known for picking up scents of other stuff.

When my Dad was still alive, he and my Mom would travel to Gulf Shores Alabama to buy 50 lb bags of pecans in the shell. They bought one of these nutcrackers and it is fantastic for pecans. Dad made a lot of things, and on thing was a set of saw horses with the top made from 2 x 8's. Dad didn't use them much any more and so he drilled holes in each end of the nutcracker and screwed it onto the top of the saw horse. Mom would straddle the saw horse and crack those nuts in no time! Nearly all the time they would come out in complete halves. I still have the cracker and the saw horse, but we don't have the strength to do the cracking. We just order 3 lbs cracked and have them shipped for holiday baking. So - if anyone loves pecans and would like to order a LOT from Sandy -- this would be a great way to get them all cracked open in a jiffy!

Because they've never worked in a pair!
Once you've used them, you love them!

I just popped in to say that yesterday I found that errant bag of gardenwear with my "best" (before the co-op) pair of gloves and my favorite pair of long pants to garden in. I wore the pants this morning with a NEW pair of gloves.

For some reason I wanted to tell you all, though I know you;d forgotten all about my woe.

I got one pair for my husband. I don't think he has used them yet. He usually uses heavy work gloves. I will bet he will like them, once he uses them, especially for lighter duty work.

He rarely digs into the ground....unless he is digging for a fence post or something like that. I will tell him to use it when he does that.

I already have paint all over 2 pair as I used them for painting instead of the disposable gloves. I used them (disposables) when I washed out the brushes.
