Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Soooo.....we actually received this gift from my brother in law for the baby shower, and at the time, I remember thinking, "seriously? how boring...and how very cheap of you (I had no idea of the cost at the time)." I just figured this was one of those kits you see at Target...you know, the ones on the endcap in the pharmacy that contain like 15 bandaids, either too small to be useful or too big to use unless you did some serious damage, in which case you probably require professional medical attention, and a tube of generic neosporin. I tucked this away in our bathroom and never took it out..until I started my adventure making all of my own babyfood (and once in awhile adult fare). I should mention, I am NOT a cook, nor am I at all graceful...and that combination spells disaster in the kitchen. I cannot explain to you the times that this kit has saved my poor little hands when I needed it, with the appropriately sized bandage, and antibacterial cream. Oh, and when I broke my little toe this week on the edge of the coffee table? Surprise! Medical tape is right there in the kit...something I would NEVER buy until I needed it. And I do feel a little better having things that I would never, ever go out of my way to buy (such as the rescue blanket) around in case of emergency....and so I don't look like a totally neglectful parent. :) So, long story short, this kit is now mounted in our bathroom (although I should probably relocate it to the kitchen, seeing as I am the one who utilizes it the most..ha!). After pricing out refills at target, I'm probably better off replacing the kit, as I have two boys at home (my son, and my rough and tumble husband) who will undoubtedly need that save a tooth feature sooner or later...sigh. Overall..bravo, brother in law..you actually bought an amazingly useful gift (it pains me to admit this to him...you have no idea).
