Have any of you ever stayed in a rustic cabin in a frigid Minnesota winter? The oldfashioned outhouse is a necessary evil. I cut a carpet square, cut an oval in the middle, and hand sewed lace around the edge, and made a matching tissue paper holder. I gave it as a gag gift to one of the other people along on the trip. We had drawn names.

What one does is hold the carpet over the stove in the cabin, grab it and run out like the dickens clutching it to you body to retain the warmth, enter the outhouse, throw it over the offending hole, and sit down quickly.
