Musings Of A Madwoman

RANDOM MUSINGS.... WON'T YOU JOIN ME?

Just some things I've been thinking about lately-

1. Why do the baby food companies make their glass jars so that the tops NEVER screw on properly once opened? Everytime I open one, the top never screws on evenly to store in the fridge. This can't just be me can it? Thanks to these lovely malfunctioning tops, Emily took a jar of green beans (the mushy kind - they *were* Andrew's) out of my fridge the other day and before I could yell(or actually, while I was in the midst of yelling) "NO! NO!" bam!- green bean puree all over my fridge shelf and kitchen floor.

2. Why do I smell burning in here?!

3. How come when you peel the plastic off the lid of an organic baby food, the entire label comes off the whole jar! So now I am left with un-labeled jars in the fridge that I thought I'd remember the contents of when in truth, I just spent a good 5 minutes staring into my fridge, completely unaware of what I was actually staring at.

4. Oh damn! I burned my Cheddar Cheese Jalapeno Poppers! While I am on that subject - why did the box say "3 servings"? The poppers are like the size of my pinky. I heated the whole damn box. Is that wrong?

5. Why am I having so many troubles with baby food containers?

6. Since I mentioned Toy Story 2 in my post below, I wanted to bring this to the table: the two kids names in it are Emily and Andy! I smell a scrapbook layout in the works!!!

7. So I think Vince and I decided to get a new toilet bowl in the bathroom of our house. At first we were all "wow... this bowl is clean... let's get a new seat" then I had to take the tank lid off when I was painting and I about gagged. I know we have no control over the tank but still, what if we get sick? I asked Vin if he wanted to stick his head where someone sat their ass 'cause I sure don't.

8. & 9. Isn't chow mein the darker, fried noodles (Chinese food I mean) and lo mein the soupy whiter noodles? 'Cause I ordered Shrimp Chow Mein for dinner last night and they gave me lo mein & it was a big, sloppy, slimy mess. If we weren't trying to get both kids to bed, I would have went back to the restaurant. So my dinner consisted of greasy noodles that were smashed into bits (the ones you put on soup) with duck sauce. Damn this "no meat on Friday" thing. I think it's old fashioned, out-dated and pretty ridiculous but I'll stop musing #9 right there so I don't get lectured from relatives. :p

10. I wonder how I can get Emily to start pronouncing "clock" WITH the "L" in the word. *teehee*
