I have no title for this post
On Thursday night we went out to dinner at a Japanese restaurant with a couple of friends. One of my friends ordered what appeared to be a beautifully plated appetizer:
Then we realized that there were Pringles sticking out of it. Who would have thought potato chips would be considered garnish?
On Saturday a friend of ours gave us a present to celebrate the fact that we are having a girl. It seemed like an adorable little outfit, until we saw the tag:
Is it just me, or is that a really demented way to describe an outfit that an infant will be wearing?
I hope you all had as good a New Year's Eve as we did.

Pringle garnish? That's haute.
Happy New Year!
(You'll appreciate the easy entry when the child has a monster puke or one of those blowouts that shoots all the way up the back and you don't want to pull the outfit over the head to remove it, getting puke or poop in the hair and face. I'm just saying.)

Another mom here, to second what mrtl said. You'll appreciate that "easy entry" when you're changing her diaper at 3AM.

The truly sad thing is that the salmon sucked and I didn't even bother eating the pringles. If only there had been some sour patch kids with it, too!

Happy new year to you, Dr. Torrie, baby Torrie, and the critters!
Don't take any wooden Pringles...

That appetizer is just odd looking.

AAAAHAHAHAHAHA! I thought YOU guys stuck the Pringles in! It's even funnier now. :D

An old boyfriend once took me to a Chinese restaurant on Valentines Day where one of the courses was tofu hearts - with Heinz Salad Cream! Bleuch! I'm glad you had a great New Year though. This is going to be your year!

I am more than a little amused by looking to the right and seeing your Flickr buttons ... and seeing first, a couple of pics of you two making all kissy kissy ... then a rather ... umm ... phallic looking dessert ...

Congrats on the baby girl! I am so excited for you! But really, that easy entry footsie thing is just a tad disturbing. I think whoever titled that got a good chuckle over that later with friends.
Mmm, pringles. Way better a garnish than those stupid clumps of greenery.

There is nothing in the world better than easy entry sleepers. My baby is an explosive pooper and definitely needs those ones. But yeah, calling them that is a bit odd.

Are pringles the new caviar?
HAHA! Funny tag for the baby clothes. :)
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

That is priceless. Pringles tend to be a little on the snobby side compared to Doritos...so obviously you must have impressed them for them to give you such an exquisite garnish.

Two blondes were going to Disneyland when they came to a fork in the road. The sign read: "Disneyland Left."
So they went home.
