Chick Chill
Wednesday, July 01, 2009
We have officially entered the Dog Days of Summer!
Your days are spent working out in the garden and flower beds, sitting at ball fields, and playing at the park with your kids. There are days when you just can not escape the heat and humidity. You drink water, but you'd rather be dumping it over your head in an effort to cool down. You reach into your cup and grab and ice cube and rub it on your forehead and arms.....but now you're all wet and not all to great to look at!
Enter the Chick Chill.....
Your days are spent working out in the garden and flower beds, sitting at ball fields, and playing at the park with your kids. There are days when you just can not escape the heat and humidity. You drink water, but you'd rather be dumping it over your head in an effort to cool down. You reach into your cup and grab and ice cube and rub it on your forehead and arms.....but now you're all wet and not all to great to look at!
Enter the Chick Chill.....
Relief from the heat is what the Dallas, TX stay at home moms, and sisters, Caroline Norris and Katharine Godson were looking for. Unable to find anything appropriate they decided to make one for themselves.
The result; a reusable freezer gel‐pack wrapped in a colorful velour pouch with an embroidered ChickChill logo on the front.
“Discrete relief from the heat – in a fashionable way” says Katharine. “Guys will just put an ice tray on their neck. We wanted something a little more lady‐like to cool down,” adds Caroline.
Other uses include: relief of muscle aches, fever, tired eyes, and hot flashes. “One mother even wrote to say that she puts a pink ChickChill in her daughters’ lunch box” said Caroline.
Measuring approximately 5” x ¾” x 3 ½” the pouch is washable with an elastic opening at one end. Just pop it in the freezer for a couple of hours and take ChickChill along with you. They’re not only great for personal use but also a unique and practical gift.

It would feel good to hug it next to my red-hot face after I've mowed the yard and weeded the garden and done the weedeating and picked the blackberries and fed the dogs and...and...and...
