"Would YOU Eat This?" Wednesday

I have a feeling something got lost in translation here. A "Cantonese Glutinous Fried Rice" Speedi Meal! Now doesn't that sound yummy! It sounds about as good as it looks.

You know it's bad when the parsley is the most appetizing thing on the package!

Tacky Tuesday

What not to wear to the discount store:


As if the skin-tight pants and trashy sandals aren't bad enough...


These shoes don't even fit! Feet hanging over the edges of one's shoes is not, I repeat not sexy. It's just nasty!

This is funny in a sick and twisted way

Once you get this song in your head, it never leaves. It's kind of cute, though. Don't ask me why, but I added it as a ring tone on my cell.

You simply must read this entry, especially if you're a SAHM (but you don't have to be one to appreciate the humor) - Melinda's Blog: Lesson Learned

Decorate Your Bathroom - The Dollar Store Way!

First, select your toilet seat cover:

Tired of sitting down to do your business, only to find yourself seated in a wet spot? This terry-cloth seat cover is not only cheap, and available in an assortment of attractive colors to match most bathrooms (if they happen to be pink and/or purple), it's highly absorbent, too!


If your bathroom isn't pink or purple, there's this hideous cushioned toilet seat in a shade that will hide most unsightly toilet issues.



And, to point the way to your restroom, you might want to invest in one of these "Toilet" signs. Why on Earth would anyone want a wall plaque featuring an old geezer taking a crap?

There's actually a whole series of these, each featuring an old person in a different "potty pose". Collect 'em all!

I Want This Costume!!!

I know Halloween is over 2 months away, but I want this costume!!! 

Over the 100-Degree Mark in New York City

As of 3:45pm, according to Weather.com, it reached 101 degrees at LaGuardia Airport, which is not too far from my neighborhood. I just took a short walk to the ATM and local Walgreen's, and to say it's hot out there is an understatement!

I'm just hoping that everyone in this city does their part to conserve electricity during this heatwave. Otherwise, we're going to be up Shit's Creek without a paddle! Like Mayor Bloomberg has suggested, setting your air conditioners for 78 degrees indoors is still a lot cooler than 101 degrees outside. The temperature in my apartment is currently 80 degrees, and it's not uncomfortable.

Seriously, folks, it's better to have your air conditioners on low, than to have no power, and no air conditioning or refrigeration whatsoever. For more info on the heatwave you can visit NY1 News. You can also download a copy of the "Ready New York: Beat the Heat Guide".
