Now that it's finally summer, I took a quick jaunt to the beach with my three kids. I had just finished readjusting my pretied bandana and was helping my three-year-old dig up her small neon-green Croc from the sand when I almost FLIPPED OUT!
About three feet away from me stood another religious lady at the beach in – I kid you not – a Shaitel. Yes! She apparently put on her fine, custom, $3,500 + wig to go to the beach?! Oxidize much?!
“You have got to be kidding me!” was my first reaction.
Then my not highly conditioned enough reflex of “different strokes for different folks” kicked in. I glanced again at the lady, pulled the two ends of my kerchief out of habit, glanced at the wig wearing lady again, and then stared out to sea, deliberately keeping my “new friend” and her Shaitel out of sight…. trying to behave…
Someone tapped me and I jumped! “Sorry!” I heard a timid voice break through my grumping. “I didn't mean to scare you. I just wanted to know where you got that pre-tied. Sorry!”
I lifted me kerchief-clad head and stared at – you guessed it – my wig clad “neighbor,” I restructured my grimace into a lopsided grin, clumsily got to my feet and stuttered, “Ooohhh! T- Th- That's okay! It-it-it's no pro-prob-problem. Reeeaally!
I quickly studied her appearance and came to three conclusions: She cared how she dressed, she knew how to dress, and she always looked great – from the sole of her shoe to the top of her hat – well shaitel!
“So, anyway, where did you get that pre-tied?” she prompted.
“I go to www.MillineryShop.net. See, I would never even think of going to the beach in a Shaitel, even if it was a cheaper one. It would get completely killed, besides that it's so uncomfortable… and.. oh! Yeah! This Millinery Shop is really great they like sell everything you need in the way of head-coverings, like everything. They've even got Shawls and Costume Jewlery. They have pre-tieds, bandannas, hair clips, kerchiefs, snoods, tichels… um mitpachot turbans and even hair clips and jelly bands… I mean they have everything! Um..” I was babbling and I knew it.
“They've go it all. Seriously! Check them out… they have something for every taste and need. They're even well-priced.”
“What's the name of the place again?” she asked. And I proceeded to give her the information. We talked for a few minutes more and then she turned and walked away, her wig winking in the sunlight. It's funny! Now it looked a drop more blondish, before I had been positive it was brown. “I guess my imaginations running wild again,” I mused as I reached up to pull the two ends of my pretied again… out of habit.

Can you believe it?! School is almost out and summer is here. This crazy winter is behind us and the fun is about to begin. As a very active person I try to do all kinds of cool things in the summer and it brings to mind a great topic.
How do you cover your hair?
Beach in a shaitel? I dont think so – at least not me! Ever lose your wig – or almost in hershey park. Been there. Done that. Not fun. so here are my top recomendations, feel free to chime in and give me yours:)
This is a great one with my tan clothing, dress it up dress it down it's all good.

Hair is good on heads… not so good in food!
If you think you've always got your hair covered, take this survey:
How often do you, your husband, or one of your kids find hair in their food? Or better yet, a guest??!! Hmm… appetizing!
If you can answer less than once a month (of the hairs you know about), you're better off than me and better off than most. Congratulations! But still…
You love entertaining and finally got your Great Aunt Judy over with Uncle Marv, kids and new grandchild – an obvious first dressed in pressed corduroys, a sky blue polo, with a backwards Yankee cap forcing down a heedful of curls, framing a cherubic face.
Your garlic bread went over great – no less than six compliments scored. The salmon entree was “plain luscious” as cousin Leah put it and you were just ladling out the cream of potato soup, thinking about the condiment presentation you had put together.
Twelve soup bowls safely to the table, and you can relax. You lift your spoon, sniff the contents of the bowl appreciatively and open your mouth in anticipation… whoa! What's that long, thin, brown thing overlapping the edges of the spoon? It's certainly not a potato! You furtively glance around, hoping no one noticed what just happened, when you notice Uncle Marv inspecting something on his spoon… EMBARRASSING!
And that's the facts! You can't even point fingers to your teenaged daughter ‘cuz you got none, or to your older sons, ‘cuz their hair is too short.
Again I ask – think you got your hair covered? Then again, you might if you've checked out our special food prep headgear of pre-tieds that actually STAY IN PLACE. Here at millineryshop.net we believe that hair, all your hair, belongs on your head.
Whether it's your hair, or shaitel hair, no one wants it in their food. Don't just blame it on the wig – no one really cares especially when it only gets washed once in six weeks (if you're conscientious!). Get yourself a good, strong, tight pre-tied bandanna that's easy to put on and comfortable to wear and keep you hair where it belongs… oh! And also fully enjoy your hair-free cream of potato soup and entertaining your guests without those embarrassing moments.

This is not a fluff piece like many of my recent posts.
This is a public service announcement. Buyer Beware.
When you purchase a pre-tied bandana, hat or snood from the traveling sales people that go from colony to colony, consider where that piece has been before you try it on your head.
Dozens of hot sweaty women have tried and discarded it.
Bungalows and lice outbreaks?!
Bed bugs?
Last year one of our wholesale accounts told us she had all the pre-tied in a nice Rubbermaid bin and somehow some nice mice got in. She just dusted all the droppings and sold them!
Remember, our prices are as low as we can get them. We are the wholesaler:) These pieces come to you factory direct. They are NOT tried on by the multitudes. You may specify what size you wish. Your selections are then speedily shipped directly to your front door.
So stay on you patio chair and relax. You don't have to push and shove to get a good deal.
COMING SOON! An awesome new feature we are about to add. Custom appliqués. You will be able to add any style appliqué to any pretied or snood.

LICE! If my daughter brings home just one more note from the CDC I will freak! Since winter break we have been receiving these notes home explaining what Pediculus humanus capitis -AKA- headlice is and how to get rid of them. The teachers have called all the parents asking to put the girls hair in braids or buns. That's a great first step but it leaves many still exposed from those itchy jumpy insects.
I have sent my daughter to school in these awesome kids pre-tied. She feels totally hip and I feel totally safe. Just typing this article has me itching! I am so glad I don't have to deal with the real deal:)
Ladies keep in mind the article we posted in the summer about lice in head coverings.

I have to share my excitement with you,my friends on Millineryshop.net frum diva blog.
I recently went shopping for new fabric. It was time to add some new prints to the site. I just love picking and choosing fabric. A lot of planning goes into which fabric to get. Print, color, texture, quality, washing care, etc.
I found a fantastic cotton print available in two colors pink and grey.
It is cotton which is great by itself but also because it has a shiny sheen (non-slip) with the in style look of slub woven into the thread weave of the fabric. It has a linen appearance- knobbly effect.
Close up of the fabric
Also check out the Wildlife prints:
This fabric is a lycra (stretchy ,silky feel). A real fun print with many colors.
Pretied Bandana- Blue Wildlife
Pretied Bandana-Multi Color Wildlife
Don't forget you can customize your Pretied bandana by size or by adding our famous strip grip.
And remember the more you buy the more you save. GO WHOLESALE !!!

Home made bagels - so easy - so good.
1 1/4 cups water
4 1/2 cups bread flour
3 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon instant yeast
4 quarts water
1 cup honey (optional)
Directions
Combine 1 1/4 cup water, flour, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, vegetable oil, and yeast in the mixing bowl of a stand mixer.
Mix on low speed using the dough hook until well-developed, about 8 minutes. To ensure the gluten has developed fully, cut off a walnut-sized piece of dough. Flour your fingers, and then stretch the dough: if it tears immediately, the dough needs more kneading. Fully developed dough should form a thin translucent "windowpane."
Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel, and let rise for 2 hours.
Punch the dough down, place it on a lightly floured work surface, and use a knife or dough scraper to divide the dough into 6 pieces (or more, for smaller bagels). Roll each piece of dough into a sausage shape about 6 inches long. Join the ends to form a circle. Repeat with the remaining dough, and let the bagels rest for 15 minutes.
Preheat oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange small plates with poppy seeds, sesame seeds, and onion flakes next to the baking sheet.
Bring 4 quarts water to a boil in a large pot. Add honey, if desired (see Editor's Note). Boil the bagels, three at a time, until they rise to the surface of the pot, about 1 minute per side. Remove the bagels with a slotted spoon and place them on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Dip the tops of the wet bagels into the toppings and arrange them, seeds up, on the baking sheet. Sprinkle with coarse salt, if desired. Bake in the preheated oven until the bagels begin to brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
Adding honey or barley malt syrup to the boiling water bath gives the bagels a pleasing chewy texture with a hint of sweetness. You may omit the honey, if desired. The nutrition data for this recipe includes the full amount of the honey. The actual amount of the honey consumed will vary.
