Come On Girls, Laugh Out Loud!

It's here again already! Thanksgiving is behind us and the Christmas rush is in full swing.  In spite of the fact that this season is the "season of joy", it can also be stressful with shopping, cleaning, entertaining, wrapping, decorating, family, etc..  Every once in a while you get a piece of email that just makes you laugh.  And who doesn't need a good hard belly laugh once in a while?  I got this one last year and it just cracked me up.  I hope it provides you a few minutes of stress relieving laughter too!

Christmas Is Tight This Year
(everyone loves a homemade gift)

My Dear Friends,
Somewhat embarrassing to admit, Christmas is tight this year and I will be making bedroom slippers for you all as gifts. Please let me know your sizes. You'll most likely agree that it's a splendid idea, and should you wish to do the same, I've included the instructions below.

How to make bedroom slippers out of maxi pads:

You need four maxi pads to make a pair.

Two of them get laid out flat, for the foot part.

The other two wrap around the toe area to form the top.

Tape or glue each side of the top pieces to the bottom of the foot part.

Decorate the tops with whatever you desire, silk flowers (this is most aesthetically appealing), etc.

These nifty slippers are:

* Soft and Hygienic

* Non-slip grip strips on the soles

* Built in deodorant feature keeps feet smelling fresh

* No more bending over to mop up spills

* Disposable and biodegradable

* Environmentally safe

* Three convenient sizes: (1.) Regular, (2.) Light and (3.) Get out the Sand Bags.

I've attached a photo of the first pair I made so that you can see the nifty slippers for yourself....

I'm awaiting your response...it's crucial that I get the right size for each one of you!

Oh come on! Laugh out loud with me - you know this is just funny!

The Bottle of Wine

THE BOTTLE OF WINE

Sally was driving home from one of her business trips in Northern Arizona when she saw an elderly Navajo woman walking on the side of the road. As the trip was a long and quiet one, she stopped the car and asked the Navajo woman if she would like a ride. With a silent nod of thanks, the woman got into the car. Resuming the journey, Sally tried in vain to make a bit of small talk with the Navajo woman.

The old woman just sat silently, looking intently at everything she saw, studying every little detail, until she noticed a brown bag on the seat next to Sally.

"What in bag?" asked the old woman .

Sally looked down at the brown bag and said, "It's a bottle of wine. I got it for my husband."

The Navajo woman was silent for another moment or two. Then speaking with the quiet wisdom of an elder, she said...

"Good trade."

Barb at Grits and Glamour is hosting a "bunny on a stick" show & tell today! I guess so many of these cute, fuzzy little guys from Pier 1 have cropped up on blogs, Barb thought it would be fun for everyone to post how they are displaying them. I've come up with a few possibilities so far for my bunny on a stick.....

.....nestled in a sweet nest on our 25th anniversary silver tray!

OR

.....hiding in a basket of fresh daisies!

OR

.....decorating a vase of paper mache' eggs next to a white wicker bunny friend!

Happy April Fool's Day, Wordless Wednesday, and Bunny On A Stick Day!!!
