Goodbye mitt

We've had the same oven mitt since we were married (we were given it as either an engagement or wedding present). But they had got to the stage where they weren't much better than using a tea towel (the wading had all compressed giving no insulative qualities to the mitt anymore). For at least a year now we have been making comments to each other about the need to replace them...Well today was the day, I was given a new oven mitt for my birthday and the old one has found it's rightful place in the rubbish bin!
