Rock On, With Slipper Rocker

From the same gal that brought us the inflatable kayak skirt (the Evacuation Skirt), which is great for flash floods when global warming sets in, comes the 2-in-1 slipper rocker chair.

This is our first season in Jerusalem and can we tell you – it is freeezing here.

We think if we had one of these rockers we’d be able to turn our little space heater down (save energy), warm our toes, and get some much-needed exercise at the same time.
