Snow Sold Separately

People who are anal retentive even in recreational activites such as building a snowman will appreciate the new Snowman Kit from Lands End:

Everything you need to build a perfect snowman — except the snow. Kit includes a "carrot" nose, two "coal" eyes, three blue buttons and a "corncob" pipe — all made of solid wood. There's even a red Polartec® scarf to keep your snowman warm. Arrives in a burlap storage sack. Made in USA.

All this for a mere $29.00! I'm surprised they don't offer a deluxe edition complete with carbon fibre twiglet arms and a hand-made quaker broom to really up the ante in the neighbourhood decor.
