The Kitchen Table

I just had to tell you ladies.

Remember all those threads about the Genie Bra & Ahh bra?

Well while I was in the hospital I watched those informercials several times. No one seem to know if they were any good or not so I decided to find out for myself.

I ordered both kinds, and LOVE them! Go get one or more. They are very comfortable, they don't ride up or roll. I would suggest you buy a size larger then the tee shirt top size they suggest, just to have a better fit.

I think I like the Genie bra better then the Ahh bra. The Ahh bra seems to be a bit thinner, and does not have the opening to put in the extra supports.

I now have 4 of them and will keep buying them. I got mine on ebay so I could decide if I like them. the cheapest one was $17.49 the most expense was $24 on a buy it now.

They are great to sleep in. I sure needed it when I was in the hospital!

I do have a link for a good price if you want more then just one. I may just buy another set and sell them on ebay when I get back home.

Let me know if you get one and tell me what you think.

Here is a link that might be useful: Genie Bra (6) from QVC

Joann, this is good to know. I especially like to hear you say "good to sleep in". I've been looking for something like that for when I'm on vacation or if I'm ever in the hospital again...any where I'm not in my own home and want to feel more secure yet comfortable.

Maire Cate, also good to know BBB has the Genie.

Thanks ladies for the headsup! :)

Congrats Betty! I have a noid pink and thought it might be a Frosty Pink, but now after looking at cali's FP (WOW!!!) am not too sure. Mine bloomed last month, but the heat dried the blooms up before fully opening. Just Friday, I was given a 3' brug cutting of a pink brug but also a noid so we will see what it turns out to be if I get it to root.

Sorry, no web site or pictures. I always do try to correct my spelling, thanks for noticing. I don't have a link, but 2 years after finding my first lining intact, I read an article from a borrowed newsletter,"the Gourd" spring 2001 page 8, (Ohio gourd society) that talks about repairing damaged shining lining. Lynw Sack cured them indoors-then using Enviro-Tex 2 part epoxy, as a inside sealer, which she said dries rock hard. and crystal clear. When you open the gourd, the seed with it pockets are stuck to the walls and can be carefully, slowly removed leaving the membrane (soft and whitish) stuck to the inside. Try it next fall with 10 gourds, by drying some inside the house, and see what happens.

You will also find that knots come undone in laundering, and that is so sad when that happens. We had a wonderful granny square afghan DHs grandmother made. I kept it on the back of the couch, but eventually it got dusty and had to be washed. Yikes, it came undone in many spots. Had to throw it out. If she had woven in the ends, we would not have had that problem.

I'll be heading to my local BB&B for a set of Genies. I've seen the infomercial many times. My last "good" bra is a raggy mess. I just need a little support and cover.

Where do they open,front,back or slip over your head?? I've been wearing the hanes sports bras,but i find they are too high,so i get out my trusty old seam ripper and remove the first 2 hook and eyes,then turn the corners down and tack in place on the sewing machine.

I don't really have anything to put in a bra these days except a few dog ears left over from the mastectomy,and i don't wear anything at home most of the time.but when i go out i like to be covered.

I did get the mastectomy bras,and the boobs to go in them,but i'm always hot,so less is more for me.
