I don't want to be a kill-joy, but a word of warning about electric blankets...
I went to bed one cold winter day, after working a long night shift, and put the electric blanket on. I fell into a deep sleep. A while later I thought I smelled smoke. I looked around and didn't see anything so fell back to sleep. I woke up again because a stronger smell of smoke. Sitting up in bed I saw the blanket scorching through and smoking.
