I’m often up late at night. The TV is on and you can imagine what kinds of ads I see.

Everything from “enhancement” products to hearing aids to – well – THIS:

It’s the Grill Glove!

Seriously, you put it on, reach right on that hot grill, grab your steak, flip it and all is well!

It’s even dishwasher safe. Bonus.

I don’t know what I think about this. Will I accidently burn part the of my arm that’s not covered by the glove as I reach over HOT FLAMES?

Also, do I want to actually pick up my steak with my hand as it is cooking? I’m worried about the “ick” factor here. Will it feel mushy?  

On the other hand, Anthony Sullivan is endorsing it. So you know it has to be top notch.

Who’s Anthony Sullivan again?

What do you think? Do you have any experience with the Grill Glove? Or is this a flash in the pan?

So, Lady Gaga is the “It Girl” of the music world right now.

I like her music. She intrigues me.

She also scares me a little. Just a little.

Lady Gaga will often do, say and wear outlandish things. That’s her thing.

Her outfit for the cover of the latest issue of Vogue Hommes Japan magazine?

A meat bikini.

Yes. A. Meat. Bikini.

Oh, and a meat beret. Can’t forget that.

Click here to check it out. It’s a little burlesque-ish so click at your own risk.

What do you think? Does she push the envelope just a tad with the raw meat clothing? Or is it all in good fun?

This weekend, I plan to spend lots of time with my family just . . . being.

School has started here and ever since we’ve been blowing and going. I am looking forward to doing some fun things with my kids and having an actual conversation with my husband.

A novel concept.

We’ll be grilling out, inviting friends over and playing. Thank you, Labor Day, for giving me the chance to enjoy my family — and some really good food.

I hope you do the same.

Happy Labor Day!
