It is Monday!
Yeah!
It is Potluck!
Hooooooray!

Today’s potluck is avoiding any tuna products to accommodate my dear reader Lizz. She has requested that I NOT serve, “Anything that involves tuna. At least if it is a breakfast or brunch potluck. Yuck!” No problem Lizz, really this is going to be an easy one for me since I completely agree. Sorry folks, no chicken of the sea.


Ryan (7): Have you ever had 100% milk?


I interrupt this potluck for an award ceremony:Shannon at Mad Squirrel and Heidi from Frantically Simple sent this over. Thanks sooooo much.

I would like to pass it on to the following people within award disclaimer guidelines:

The Nirvana award disclaimer (enacted 7-21-08, ratified on that same date): I can’t help it if I am not the only person on the Internet that thinks you are cute, smart, original, creative, hot, excellent, good, great, in need of a hug, in need of a bouquet of flowers, in need of a poem, and/or funny. I cannot be held accountable for the actions of others that may or may not have resulted in a duplication of the award in question. Accepting the award is up to you, but once you do accept said award if I hear any crap about said award I am revoking said award because if I gave you said award you deserved said award so deal with said award. Thank you very much.

1. Don Mills Diva
2. TX Poppet at Canned Laughter
3. Ali at Cheaper than Therapy
4. Jenn at Juggling Life
5. Burgh Baby
6. Nanny Goats in Panties
7. Christine at Watch me, No watch me
8. Bad Mom
9. Roger at Screed
10. Beck at Frog and Toad

All these people are very deserving so I plead with them to carefully review the Nirvana disclaimer before award acceptance.


This is not Holly, but (almost) shorty pajamas and a weird animal adventure ensued:

Go here for the adventure at Eat Play Love.


Ryan: Do cows make 100% milk?

What is up with Holly’s coccyx?

Yawn. I am growing weary of the injury and of this segment. Yawn.

Let’s find out who is Peep of the Week!


In response to Next time Holly is going to get a root canal:


One comment stood out and was often commented on by subsequent commenters:
Translation:
“Looks like this lady hasn’t had her toes done in, like, 12.333 years!”
“You were in charge of marketing! Why couldn’t you get her in here before”
“Hey, at least I got her to spring for the spa pedi!”
“That’s my point imbecile! If they’re only in every 12 years you must talk them into the diamond pedi!”
“But I don’t speak English!”
“How you gonna twitter new customers with our pedicure specials if you don’t speak English yet? You’re fired!”

Congratulations ThreeUnderTwo at Lit and Laundry you are this week’s Peep of the Week!


There was a new produce stand up beside a road near our home. As I was driving by Ryan had the following conversation with himself:
Ryan: Let’s stop and get some of that fruit.
Ryan: I think it is for sale.
Ryan: There is a lot of food.
Ryan: And only one man.
Ryan: It could be a picnic.
Ryan: But that is too much food for a picnic with only one man.
Ryan: It must be for sale.
Ryan: Unless other people are coming to the picnic.
Ryan: That is still a lot of food for one picnic.
Ryan: And there aren’t extra chairs…
ME: OK! We will stop and buy fruit…or join in on the picnic.

Which is why this is an extra exciting edition of…
What is in Holly’s fruit bowl?

Texas peaches, cucumbers and new potatoes!

Which is why you should take something home with you, really! There is no way I can eat all this food.

  1. Just wondering … what do you do with the leftovers from these potlucks? Do you have a one woman picnic? Is that why your son contemplates the possibility of one-man picnics on the side of the road?

  2. I love peaches – mind if I steal one? Making a cobbler? So it your pain in the rear better? I hope so.

  3. Ryan and Dave should get together — they could talk to themselves but maybe everyone around them would think they were talking to each other….

  4. Peaches thats fruit Im ok with that but cucumbers? Potatoes? Holly what the hell????? ITS NOT FRUIT!!!!!

  5. much happiness in re: to your fruit bowl. This IS big news, indeed!!!

    LOVED that pedi-comment. Priceless.

    i hate earwigs… i would have drawn them uglier.
