National No Beard Day

Happy National No Beard Day everyone! Why do we need a day devoted to shaving off those crumb catchers, those chin warmers, and those soup strainers? Well... unless you're going for the Amish look, I think it's time to shave that shaggy thing off. (And since no Amish person will ever see this electronic article, I feel little guilt in making fun of their shaggy beards...) So if you're planning to celebrate this holiday in proper fashion, let me give you a few ideas that should help keep your freshly shaven face nice and warm, despite today's chilly temperatures.

• Knit yourself a chin cozy using a nice warm wool yarn or your freshly shaven beard hair.
