Japan has one called "sweat." Never, ever dared try it

They also have a very popular canned drink called "Poccari Sweat"-- it's a
"sports' drink", like Gateraide, actually. It makes sense to Japanese-- you
drink it to replace the sweat you've lost.

OOOOOOO, a thimble! Thimbles are cute, old-fashioned, and a VERY common
size referent, even though they're rarely seen if you're not a sewing
geek (or a beader).

I love it.

I needs me a thimble!

She called me from St Louis around 2pm, and is supposed to call from the
halfway point when she gets gas, but DAMN--that should have been a while
ago--it's only a 2 hr 20min drive, plus time to get her luggage, the rental
car, and stop for food!

That's a good idea! I would love to have one that was TINY, though, so
the whole thing would fit in the pic. I'll peel my eyes.

I'm off to go search eBay for a thimble, too!

Buy an antique one on eBay. I sometimes use the old yellow-and-black ones to
edge/border my collages. They look wicked cool, though they're not what you
might call "pretty".

I am a silly mommy!

I have never been "into" Lego, and my kids are too young, except for
Juliet who could care less, so I'm out of the loop in terms of where
there are any sort of Lego monuments or activities.

I have to admit that I dislike Lego for the same reason I dislike ANY
small plastic toys... they're always underfoot.

Haw haw haw haw!
Legos are European. Don't they have Lego parks in Europe, and Japan? Silly
mommy! (SMOOCH)


I am
pretty sure a cigarette is fairly universal, but eeew!


I know. Turds and boogers are universal too. (Oh, but they come in different
sizes, don't they....)

Yeah, but what size thimble are you going to use? I use a large, but a friend of
mine uses an extra small. They come in lots of sizes.
