Funny Friday

Sorry, y'all.  I haven't updated my blog all month.  I have a lot to post, such as my progress on my Around the World blanket, Project Life pages and more, but mostly I've been so busy with church things and also I just went to UTAH, so will be posting about that soon.  It wasn't a long trip but it was packed with activity.

Anyway, I saw this shirt when I was in Utah and thought it was funny...so sharing here too.

Have a great weekend!!

Funny Friday - Sign of the Times

 I didn't learn shorthand and was never in a Steno Pool but I do remember those.  When I was young and watched "The Beverly Hillbillies", I remember that Miss Jane and the other secretaries in the Steno Pool would use shorthand.

I did, however, use an IBM Selectric.  In fact, it is what I use to learn to type.  It was so cool to me to use an electric typewriter with that cool round ball instead of a manual typewriter.  I loved it!

Typing class was a class I looked forward to everyday.  It was fun.  I am sure they no longer teach typing or keyboarding in high school.  Today's kids get to miss out on that fun class since they now grow up typing.

Funny Friday

 I love the Family Circus - such a cute, sweet and basic comic.

Useless Product - S'Mores Maker

I received an email from one of those companies that sells a hodge podge of things (and often a lot of those "as seen on TV products" and in the email was this little item...

The S'Mores Maker.

What a waste of plastic this is and what a waste of money this would be.  Plus, it is a lot of extra work.  I cannot imagine why someone would have a need for this product.


Step 1 - place graham crackers on chocolate looking plate
Step 2 - place a little square of chocolate on top
Step 3 - place marshmallow on top
Step 4 - place graham cracker on top of marshmallow
Step 5 - put the little arms on top of the crackers
Step 6 - fill the reservoir up with water
Step 7 - carefully put in microwave and microwave for 30 seconds
Step 8 - carefully remove from microwave (may be hot) and enjoy

Seriously?  I thought this was a joke!  You can easily assembly your s'more, put it on a paper plate, pop in the microwave for about 20 seconds and it is done!

Imagine...people have been making s'mores since 1927 (when it was invented by Girl Scouts and first appeared in "Tramping and Trailing with the Girl Scouts".  I remember making them by the campfire when I was a Girl Scout in the 1970s.  When the microwave started becoming popular, it was simple enough to figure out how to make a S'more in there and we managed to do it without this un-necessary "Smore's Maker".

Funny things is...apparently this gadget has been around since at least 2008 (which is how old this video is).  

So...if you just can't live without it and feel the need to spend $10 of your good hard-earned cash, then maybe this little baby is for you.
