Is it Monday already?
Allllllll right…it is potluck.
Today you can bring anything you want. I am feeling very hungry and a bit grumpy.
Why am I hungry and grumpy this fine Monday morning?
Thanks for asking!
It has a little to do with this extravagant purchase from the shelves of my local Williams-Sonoma:
I know! I know! That is WAY too much to pay for syrup. I was weak. I couldn’t help myself under the Williams-Sonoma domestic spell.
Yes, that is enough to cause grumpiness, but what is the hunger all about with tasty expensive syrup in the house?
The pancakes were made.
They were buttered.
I reached for the syrup.
I tried to open the syrup.
I got a knife.
I stabbed.
I picked (axed).
I sliced.
12 minutes later with cold pancakes awaiting:
Seriously?
Oh, and there is no way to reassemble it so all the syrup needs to be consumed today or transferred to a new container.
Yes, I am taking it back to W-S which just increases my grumpiness.
Let’s find out who is Peep of the Week!
This week is a little different. I am awarding Peep of the Week status to the person who left the link to this tasty little potluck tidbit featured on Passive Aggressive Notes:
So for that fun link, ANONYMOUS is Peep of the Week!
What?
Did I just award Peep of the Week to Anonymous?
Holy crap people! Leave your name! Let this be a lesson to you all!
Just for that I am totally not updating Holly’s coccyx this week.
So there.
It’s not me, It’s YOU is returning this Wednesday with Mr. Linky for you to post shopping related posts. If your shopping related post involves Target you get BONUS points which are useless in all 50 states and Canada (Nirvana lawyers are reviewing their significance in Australia).
And because I have a heart and love you all so much…
What is in Holly’s fruit bowl?
2 lemons, 2 red apples and 3 aging bananas.
Oh, and for a short while a few days ago…a bird.

Please tune in tomorrow for a Nirvana films production of that event.
This Monday may your syrup be cheap and easy…
Damn you Williams Sonoma. Your eeevil spell caused me to buy a $48 baking dish I could have gotten for $14 from Target. BAH.
*insert clever comment here*
William’s Sonoma must pump some sort of brain blocker thru their store because I find myself buying $50 soap and $25 cookie mix and I’m THE CHEAPEST person on the planet (really, look it up.)
And thank you for sharing the passive aggressive Thanksgiving food sign up sheet. That’s AWFUL!
Cheap and easy, totally works.
Cheap, easy and sticky, ew.
Williams-Sonoma syrup?! I bet you’ve got a zester in one of those drawers.
You were going to use that syrup? They deigned it not to be opened because it is priced not to be used.
Williams-Sonoma is a scary place. For my bank account. However, I do weep for joy as I walk around in the store.
I’ve heard of Cheapy and Easy describing many different things, but never syrup. 🙂
OMG! I am still thinking about syrup that costs $16.50. I refuse to pay half that. *sigh*
That was a sappy killing, made me weep! I miss you when I can’t visit everyday!
We buy our syrup in bulk, at Costco. Do we consume too much you ask… uh probably so… And it ain’t cheap but it is easy. 1 outta 2 ain’t bad.
Thanks to Anon for making me laugh!
