Sour Messages For Sour People in Sour Relationships

February 7, 2008 | Leave a Comment

u_left_seat_up.jpgIn a sour, unhappy relationship? That’s definitely not me. Nope. And neither are these conversation hearts.

They’re for those “other people” who want to tell their lover to get lost. So if you see a box of these comin’ yer way, best skip the flowers Jethro. You will be watering them with your tears.

From the people who brought you the demotivational poster and “this glass is now half empty” mug comes conversation hearts for the dysfunctional.

Not my bag, baby. But they are fairly entertaining and messages like: “Parole is Up!” make me think more of relationships on the wrong side of the tracks, complete with broken down trailer parks and bad country songs.

View all the collections: Dejected, Dysfunctional, and and Dumped.

If not for the candy, for the laughs.

Plus I feel confident in saying that your relationship is exponentially more positive and rewarding that what is projected from these small tokens.

One sight of these black and green specs and they know as soon as my blade kisses their layered skin, I will not cry. I will not sniffle. I will not weep through curses under my breath.

I will ambitiously chop. Chop one after another to smithereens. For French Onion Soup. For a large batches of salsa. For onion tarts. For the love of all food that requires cup after cup of spicy onion.

Must Watch TV: Anthony Bourdain-No Reservations

January 2, 2008 | Leave a Comment

The difference between traveling and a vacation is that the travel experience can be highly unpredictable.

You may not know the language and customs of the country you are visiting. There is no guarantee your accommodations are going to be what you are used to at home. The food could be a total crap-shoot. The elements that could potentially derail your trip are staggering. But when it’s good, it’s a total rush.

And that’s what chef Anthony Bourdain does so well. He samples fermented shark in Iceland, sheep’s head at a hole-in-the-wall restaurant in NYC, and other local fare around the globe.

Good or bad, he is always honest about the food. When it’s good, he’s a gentleman; when the food stinks, he is pretty funny about it.

I highly recommend you watch this if you like travel and food.
