Mama Says Randomness Roundup

  • If your son doesn’t like spelling and really struggles with a particular word, make that word the password for the computer.  He’ll memorize it in no time flat.
  • I like to make a fruit platter for Christmas morning.  Easy and make ahead.  And we always have star fruit (carambola).  So festive!
  • We bought our tires at PepBoys, because they had a great sale.  PepBoys just keeps on giving!  We got a rebate in the mail for one tire free.  They fixed our flat for free.  Now they email me to tell me I have $15 PepBoy reward.  We need a new jack because the old one broke when we had the aforementioned flat tire.  Guess what I’ll be buying with my reward card?
  • I bought some diaper covers off eBay – Happy Heinies LeakFree.  $39 for TEN covers.  I LOVE them, they are the best!  They dry so easily, go on easily, and are so cute.  They really are just like a disposable if you prestuff them.
  • I just thought I’d pop a note on my blog about them because when I was considering the purchase, I googled my little heart out and could only find one review.  Maybe I’ll write up a full post about them.  The tag says Kawaii and they are one-size diaper covers (I provide my own inserts)
  • I just found out a “Gentlemen’s Retreat” is opening across the street from my Kroger store, about a 1/4 mile from my house.  I don’t live inside city limits, though our area is urbanized.  What a misnomer – I guarantee there are no gentlemen in attendance.

They have plenty of those type of ” gentlemen clubs” in Savannah. In fact, they even have ads for them on radio stations that are supposed to be “family friendly”.

“Kawaii” is Japanese for “cute.”

We just had a Hooter’s open up across from our local Super Walmart. My 11 year old son says “What’s a hooter?”

I told him it was an owl themed restaurant. He said, “Cool, can we go there sometime?” I just gave him a flat “NO” and said it was a place only for college guys.

Whaaaa? Family friendly gentlemen’s clubs? What- do they have day care rooms for the kids and blindfolds for the wives??
