Budget Finds -- Umbrella For Two

It's been a rainy week here in the city, and usually that's not a very inspiring thing. No, no, it's quite the opposite. The kind of rain we've had--dark, gloomy mornings leading to endless hours of cold, rainy disgustingness--makes you want to do nothing more than sit in bed and sleep the day away. But as I walked to work this morning, I saw something that pulled my attention away from all that bed-longing for just a minute. You see, this young father, and his young just-barely-walking-and-super-adorable little boy, were walking down the street with the funkiest umbrella that covered both their heads. I'd never seen a contraption like it before, but I found it utterly brilliant!



Better yet, it's available here at a budget-conscious price of $20--enough to forgo splitting the cost with your significant other, or whoever is worthy or sharing your umbrella. Please, though--let's all refrain from the Rihanna allusions before the cutesy factor is entirely mutilated. (Oops.)
