Did anyone else see this? Oh my god, I just made yummy apple butter and blogged about it. :)

Petty query

I just read an article about a couple, Shanel and Nephra, who named all 7 sons Nephra and the daughter Nefertiti. Now don't y'all find that to be some serious overkill regarding the passing-on-the-name tradition? Aren't those boys rather confused?It's like the WWF guy, Kevin something, who named his kids: Kevin, Kevin, Kevika and Kevlar. Really?

Kofta burgers, annoyances

I'm making kofta burgers for the boys right now- have y'all tried these? They and T swear by them! Do y'all think my children will ever eat dinner later that 4:20? Hmm. Do you know what drives me bonkers?

1) Websites that won't let you close them even though you've hit Quit, Close, Escape, etc. 2) Websites/Catalogs that ignore your Unsubscribe requests. Isn't that illegal? It should be. 3) When you buy an expensive fruit or vegetable, get it home, excitedly cut it open and find that it's no good at all. Sux!
