Happy Potluckday everyone. So glad you came to partake in the potluck festivities.

Speaking of festivities…
Tomorrow I am running a 24 hour contest for something really fun.
24 hours ONLY.
It will start at 12:01 tonight – run through the entire 24 hours of January 13, 2009.
So, please stop by tomorrow!

Someone arrived Nirvanaside this week by Googling, “3 year old pain in the butt”. I am not sure whether they meant coccyx or children, but I think I qualify on both accounts.
Speaking of it…
What is Up with Holly’s Coccyx?

A triumphal return to 5:30 yoga (yes, that is am).
Maybe not quite triumphal…
more like a yawning, sore and grumpy return.
Let’s find out who is
Peep of the Week!

In response to
Holly’s Animated Life adventure, “It is jeanetic”:
“Oh my gosh, I’m going to totally try the men’s next time…will I need to bring a sock? or do they provide that…like a nylon at the shoe store?” –Danielle
and
“Be warned. Putting your hands in the front pockets, makes your crotch itch. I’ve seen it happen many many times.” –Jill
For making me both laugh and re-think the men’s jean thing,
Danielle and
Jill are Peeps of the Week!
And now for a little story…
I spent all day Sunday (NOT an exaggeration) cleaning out a toy closet. It hasn’t been touched since Christmas other then to open the door and do the
coordinated shove & close.
I am baffled by the way that toys can un-sort themselves into the
biggest possible mess. It is a reverse big bang theory.
I pull out a plastic bin that is supposed to contain hot wheels and this is how it goes:
lego, tinker toy, Mr. Potatohead’s feet, a sticker sheet, lego, 4 magnets stuck together from 2 different magnet sets, 2 puzzle pieces (not from the same puzzle), lego, random bulldozer, transformer missing an arm and head, lego, Lincoln log cowboy figurine, Geo Trax bale of hay, lego, walkie-talkie, beanie baby-snake, lego snake, rubber snake, lego, Happy Meal toy, lego….
All that sorting in the Hot Wheel container and not a Hot Wheel in sight.
Legos have made a full Nirvana infiltration. They are small, but rapidly multiply.
They are the rabbits of toys.
I was working on sorting containers of
just legos when I noticed this:
Wha?
Did someone give my children the Lego Ku Klux Klan set for Christmas and I just didn’t notice?
I turned him over fully expecting that what I saw on the other side would clear up that thought:
Nope.
But really, what is this?
What is in Holly’s fruit bowl?

1 lime, 2 lemons, 3 brown bananas and a 1/2 of an open packet of K2O Protein Water in Pink Lemonade.
May your toys be free of prejudice today…
P.S. Don’t forget to visit tomorrow!
I’m not proud that I know this but…
(a) it’s Patrick
(b) the acorn on his shirt is the logo for the group that sponsor’s Sandy’s research in Bikini Bottom.
There, I said it. I’m off to read People magazine now. I suck.
Great blog. Welcome to MBC!
My first thought was Lego marital aid. Yuck.
It looks like Patrick Star from the SpongeBob Episode, where they stole Sandy’s Rocket ship and crashed back into Bikini Bottom, and then took the whole town hostage, because they thought they were aliens.
Should I be scared that I knew all that??
Patrick looks like an adult toy from behind…odd.
Hi, I’m looking for information about Snake wine, do you have any ?
This is Snake wine:
http://www.asiansnakewine.com/
I found your website on Google when searching other shops to buy Snake liquor but I can’t find any information here, can you help?
thanks a lot.
Oh. The toys. And the legos. Don’t even get me started.
Maybe it’s a banana dressed up as an astronaut for Halloween?
Getting up at 5:30am for ANYthing should mean that you get to be Peep O’ The Week.
I checked with an expert. I showed my four-year-old son your mystery lego-thing and said, “Who’s this?” Without blinking he said, “Patrick. Mom, why are you looking at pictures of legos when it’s time to go to preschool?”
um… a deep sea diver?
A jaundice toy with a balloon for a face?
I have no idea. Good news is, the badge and the “Zipper” indicate that it is not KKK related, as once feared.
