those 'furry hand warmers' are called muffs - amusingly, because in my part of the world at least, the word is slang for a ...particular 'southern' part of the female anatomy, if you get me. Check out the website address I'm giving you for a great flash animation game, unfortunately sans muffs, in which you can have a go at dressing tudor and victorian people, courtesy of the BBC!

Post thought: (I must confess, though. I do not eat McDonald's or KFC very much. Fast food is not healthy.) When will the muslim world accept us and eat our hamburgers and chicken and not complain? When we lower the price to 21 sheckels? You're too religious of a people. You know why a woman wears lipstick. She is looking for a man. Why is that a sin? What if she is looking for a husband and wearing lipstick makes her feel pretty? Why are you people so judgemental and stuck in 2000 B.C. ? If she starts wearing high heel shoes under her robe then I will agree that she has gone too far. That's just not fashionable. Western world looks at the pig as very tastey. OUR prophet, Paul, said it was okay to eat pork. That's why we eat it. This is why we can't get along in the world? You think we are unclean and we think you are crazy! You think we have no morals. We are just like you, though. We want to live, fall in love, live healthy, please a God that is good to everyone.

They were called mufflers. I know. I teach Victorian History, including clothing etc. A dictionary will also confirm this. Muff has sexual connotations now. For example, muff diving.
