My birthday hair!

I'm at the salon, going blonde, as we speak.

My birthday sandwich!

Westfalian Ham, Havarti, and butter on a baguette from the German deli. Heaven. Simply heaven.

Liesel the Lunchroom Lady

For the boy I created a hot dog caterpillar with pickle grass and a ketchup heart for dipping, along with mandarin oranges and Cheetos (the natural ones, without the orange coloring -- they're SO addictive, don't even try one, I'm warning you). The girl got a bologna fish with pickle seaweed, apple slices and Babybel cheese.

They both sat and picked at their trays for 3 minutes and then asked for popsicles.

POPSICLES!!

Is it too late to return them both for a full refund? How about swapping them for a pair of Bernese Mountain dogs?

My son is part Chow.

I was looking for a turkey breast when I discovered this in the freezer case. I guess it's a combination of Turkey, Duck and Chicken. But it just *can't* be a good idea to begin a product name with "turd." Call me crazy.
