Random Thoughts and Questions

* Can you buy dried apricots that are not treated with the stinky sulfer stuff? Maybe a health food store?

* I saw a lady at Kroger with a big tatoo on her calf of Sponge Bob. Because nothing says timeless quite like Sponge Bob.

* I went to several garage sales today. Is it possible to buy a car seat without dog hair on it?

* I did purchase a cookbook and a gardening book today. There was no dog hair on those.

* My husband brings home expired pop from the restaurant to drink. What could be the toxic effects of pop that is expired? It is bad enough when it is fresh.

*Tomorrow is Adam's 6th birthday. I didn't think he'd make it to 5. Yay for us!

Pop is only toxic if you are a dental person. Otherwise, it is very tasty! I personally think that Patrick would be more of a timeless character. Especially, if you are older and actually have a tattoo on your leg. I actually try to put dog hair on everything that I think I might not use for awhile. It tends to add quality to the merchandise. Hence, more dog hair = more high quality!!! I thought all people who like to look in others' mouths would know that!

Steve brings home expired food all the time. So far, we have survived.

I hate dog hair - good thing we don't ahve a dog!

And I hate spongebob - tatoo, tv show, pillows, the whole thing.

I don't think I have a good answer for any of these things, but it was a funny read. :)

Liz K said...

Pop expires? And dog hair...gross...my mom calls sponge bob a screaming show and my little brother and sister can only watch it when she isn't around.

Kara said...

Chris- you are so nuts. :)

Jackie- maybe you are just really hardy people.

Pam and Melissa- thanks! Rachael N. was my inspiration, her blog has been so funny lately!

Liz- Pop DOES expire. He had some from '06. Pop should have fizz, you know what I'm saying?

Amanda- you always have answers, is this what pregnancy does to you?!?!? How am I supposed to find out about the dang apricots?

you are sooooo funny.

Kentucky Kate said...

I particularly liked the Sponge Bob one. I would have paid to see that. If you have a Trader Joe's near you, they sell dried apricots that are natural. Probably Whole Foods too, if you have one of those, although they are kind of expensive.

undergroundcrowds said...

can I quote you?

Rachel said...

At my grocery store in the natural foods aisle there is a bulk bin of dried apricots without the sulfer dioxide. They're really really good, but like $10/lb. They also had dried mangoes. Mmmmm.

Jenny said...

Kara, buy a food dehydrator! Then you could make all your own dried apricots, and just think of all the other things you could make. They might even have one at a garage sale.

EW! I think I would have fallen down laughing if I would have seen Sponge Bob on some woman's calf. Weird, weird, weird.

What type of car seat are you looking for? I can keep my eyes open for you!

Kara said...

Sara- You can quote me all you like. But I think you are way funny without my help.

Jenny- A dehydrator! Why didn't I think of that? And I don't need another car seat. I thought I did, but after consulting with Casey he assured me that we have enough 5 pt. harnesses. (He had one his van I was forgetting about.)

Rachel- 10 bucks a pound is highway robbery! I did see dried mangos at the store, but not apricots. Weird.

Kate- We don't have Trader Joe's here. I start to feel jealous when you talk about shopping experiences that I will never partake in.
