Um, this weekend is the World Balloon Festival. Hello awesome! This article makes me want to get all pumped up with helium (just kidding, don't try that at home) and check out the AMAZING balloon art/festival/Disneyland of all things on a string (wait, not ALL things). Who's with me? Sunday. I might just have a to take a packing break to take this all in. I thought the balloon arch at my Bat Mitzvah was cool. This is going to blow me away. (And I can't possibly add another balloon reference into this post.) Kids under 12 are freeeeeeeeee!
Surely, I spoil Bert with expensive organic food, which is sure to make his culinary experience on par with, well, at least a good dinner (including drug-laced spinach dip) at Houston's. But perhaps I should look into Friskies for him, which seems to promise not only gastronomical delight, but also the rainbow and magical delights that seem to come with any good acid trip. See for yourself.
And take a moment to read the awesome YouTube comments, like: TruWatcher "I have cats, but if I had any idea that Friskies contained LSD I would've thought twice before feeding it to them...I guess Friskies thinks us cat owners enjoy indulging in lengthy fantasies about the extreme pleasure and ecstasy our cats must be experiencing eating a can of glop...not really. I just scoop it out, feed it to them and let them rhapsodize over it if they want, but I don't imagine them experiencing a trippy journey of orgasmic pleasure starring turkeys, cows, chickens and fish..."
and TruWatcher "Now I think I get it. Friskies is trying to appeal to people who keep their cats indoors for safety, but who feel guilty about it, and are scared the cat is missing out on wonderful adventures it should be having outdoors. They also know that an indoor cat's only real thrills come from eating. So they're saying "Feed your indoor cat this crap, and it'll hallucinate that it's having all kinds of trippy adventures without ever having to leave your house." Yep. Just from eating food. Sure."
And just when i thought I was at a pretty high CCL status, "zanev" seems to out Crazy-Cat-Lady me: zanev "My cat honestly perks up when this commercial is on TV, as if he totally understands it. And yes he does eat Friskies."
Thanks, Brian, for the link!
Look out, Bert. Mama might bring home sumthin' SPECIAL tonight! Pia The Pig
Obvi, there's a big boom for banners lately thanks to all things bunting. Wow that's a totally alliterated sentence that will mean nothing to the non-Etsy freak. Anyhoo, banners. We all know them. We've all read them. "Happy Birthday." "It's A Girl." "Bon Voyage."
These awesome Banter Banners are way more fun! Great for a nursery, living room, really anywhere you want to hang a banner. $10 a pop? Let's celebrate.
If you are like me, after a party, you like to remember the good times by keeping your party glasses on the kitchen counter for you to longingly gaze at, delighting in the fun you had.

You are too lazy/unable to get a true good clean post-party glass.
Sad to report that Swoozie's is closing their doors. Happy to at least report they are having a great sale. This store is a must if you have never been. The cookies!!!
