Pastie With a Purpose

Well anyone living in Michigan knows that this summer has been a hot and humid one.  I think though by the sounds of it the whole U.S. has had the same weather!  Today I was at our church for our scrabble day.  Needless to say, the inside was no better than the out, and having no air in the building was of no help.  After sitting there with sweat streaming from every pore, and starting to feel the humidity and heat take its tole on me, I decided to take the advice my sister (God rest her soul) gave me a long time ago.  Put something cold on the back of your neck to help cool the blood and thus cool yourself off.  So a trip to the kitchen was in order to find some ice.  Finding none in the freezer, I noticed some left over pasties from our sale.  Well, that was a solution I thought; took the pastie wrapped in foil, put it on the back of my neck and put a towel around it to hold it in place.  Ahhhh!  It worked, I was able to sit comfortably and with the fan on my back I cooled right down.  Well, about 2 hours in, I noticed something felt weird;  (Like sitting there with a pastie on my neck wasn't enough weirdness, though it added some levity to the rest of our group) I went to adjust the pastie and found what felt weird!  The foil had ripped, the pastie broke and I had the ingredients all over my neck!  Well regardless of the mess, I sure did smell good!  Next time I'll put it in a plastic bag!
