“Salad”
Maybe this is why America has an obesity problem? “But I eat salad for every meal!”
It’s raining iguanas
I wonder if the app on my phone has an iguana emoji on the weather report?
Reporter doesn’t know, doesn’t care
I think it’s just the headline that makes me laugh – ‘for some reason’. It’s just a “who cares” and “why does it matter” sort of thing. The article is pretty funny. I’m also glad this stuff turns up on the front page of the news. If you want to read this important, breaking … Read more

It’s time for a new duvet cover for the bed. My husband said I could pick it out.
ONLY cats IN bananas
You know, Amazon…. I look for shirts with this cat in a banana because I like the cat IN the banana. I do NOT want suggestions on cat shirts or banana shirts. Only cats INSIDE bananas. Work on your algorithm.
Can someone explain this?
These signs were all over Barcelona. Why?! Does Barcelona hate Warner Bros? Does Barcelona hate Tweety because of his treatment of Sylvester? Does anyone know?
I’m an adult
Taco Bell does not exist in Sweden. Therefore, on our recent trip to Barcelona, I really wanted to go to one since I haven’t eaten there for 3 years. When I was a kid, I was allowed to get a beef burrito and a small order of nachos. Now I’m an adult and I decide … Read more
Big Fun
Back from a week of replenishing Vitamin D in Barcelona! I have no idea what the “Big Fun Museum” is, but if I lived in Barcelona, I would totally get a job as one of the characters on the street trying to get people to come in. Big Fun indeed.

Winter dose of Vitamin D
Going on a short trip to see some real sunshine! Haven’t seen real sun for a couple of months now. Getting weak and pasty! Also, I’m out of Vitamin D pills, so what choice did I have? Tales of the sun next week. Happy New year all!
More pigs not wearing pants
Happy New Year! Don’t forget your pants!
Merry Christmas from Pigs without Pants
I’ve always thought pigs on cards at Chrsitmas is a strange thing. Apparently, many places eat ham for Christmas dinner, so this somehow equates to pig cards, pig cookie cutters, pig ornaments, etc. It’s just weird, especially when the pig is happy or also excited about Christmas. Just seems cruel. But one thing I’ve noticed…. … Read more
