would you like more vinegar on your balsmatic rice, sir?

From a complaint about the packaging of doll clothes that were wrinkled: We iron our granddaughter's own clothes before she goes to kindergarden each morning and she would have been upset that Santa brought her baby doll's clothes looking so sloppy. I have a hard, hard time believing Grandma gets up every morning to iron Little Angel's clothes before kindergarten. Why iron a five year old kid's clothes anyhow?

From a restaurant review: The only drawbacks are: 1) the rice wasn't what I expect from a Mediterranean restaurant. It didn't have saffron and it wasn't as light and fluffy as other balsmatic rice I've had. 2) they don't have beer on the tap. *facepalm* The word you are looking for here is basmati, genius. Unless there's a Mediterranean restaurant out there serving rice cooked in balsamic vinegar.

new phone rule

No calling before noon on a Saturday! Unless A) I've told you to call at any hour (like Sarah), B) you live on the East Coast, or C) you're calling because the zombie apocalypse has started. Seriously. just send me an email instead. If I am up, I'll reply. I worked until 4am last night between work work and cupcake baking, so calling me at 11am is like calling at 7am. Argh.

In happier news, frosting crisis averted. Still have to clean up the kitchen though, boo.
