Old Acquaintance Potluck

by admin on December 29, 2008

Should old acquaintance be potluck,
and never brought to mind?
Should old acquaintance be potluck,
and old times since ?

For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
we’ll take a cup of kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

So for the last potluck of 2008 I am serving a cup of kindness. YUM!

Kindness is so good!
And seasoned so well…
And remarkably calorie/fat/carbohydrate/gluten/dairy free!

First, I want to thank YOU.
YES YOU, silly!
Thank you so much for being here at June Cleaver Nirvana.
Thank you for clicking over for the first time.
Thank you for returning.
Thank you for commenting.
I love YOU!

Second, I want to thank the people that sent me the most visitors in 2008. I really appreciate the blogging support from all three/four of these of these blogging goddesses:
Mrs. Fussypants
Sarcastic Mom
Good Mom/Bad Mom

Third, I would also love to send a big 2008 hug to anyone who Stumbled my stuff this year. You are super, great, wonderful, grand and hold Nirvana hero status.

Thanks!

What is up with Holly’s coccyx?


Whew. Seriously I am much better. I am trying to contain my dancing as to not over-rotate my pelvis ipsliaterally creating increased tension on the right sacro-tuberous ligament which is still tender.

Chicken of the week:

What is in Holly’s fruit bowl?

Last week I was bemoaning the absence of pears in my fruit bowl for the finale of the 12 days of fruit bowl contents poem (OK, it was a bit of a stretch, I am trying to come up with new fruit bowl material for 2009…). And what appeared in my stocking via Fed Ex, Harry & David and Uncle Wesley?

PEARS!

Today I am going to end the potluck with the final 2008 Peep of the Week!

In response to last week’s potluck, Jenni at Jiggety Jigg said the following earning her Peep of the Week status:

“May your coccyx be Merry and bright, and may all your shower birds go down without a fight… ”

Everything seems like it’s going great in Nirvana-Land! That Chicken at the Christmas tree…too presh! (I got a clown costume for Christmas in our Dirty Santa exchange. It fits nicely with my 5 other rigs. If Baby Chick gets too big for his feathers, I’ll be glad to let him borrow one of mine.) :)

I was just wondering about the chicken costume also. Does he willingly don it at irregular intervals or is it like getting a toddler into snowpants?

May your potluck continue to be delicious and your fruitbowl be full!

Harry & David pears are SOOOOO good! Enjoy! And Happy New Year!

Glad to hear that your coccyx is better although I didn't understand most of that paragraph…

Okay, I promise in 2009 to Stumble you if you will please please pretty please give me a little tiny tutorial about HOW IN THE HELL DO I WORK STUMBLE? I know, I know… a monkey could do it. I guess I’m sub-monkey. But, I tried to sign up and it just kept sending ME crap to read (like I don’t already have an overflowing feed reader). I don’t know how to find other people’s stuff, or to suggest stuff, or… or… (hold on, I’m rocking and crying. Not really but I have long since said F*%K IT! when it comes to figuring out Stumble.)

Okay, so, here’s your assignment, if you give a damn: tell me how to use stumble. I’ll be waiting to see your name in my inbox.

waiting…

still waiting…

Dancing isn’t the only thing where you can accidentally over-rotate your pelvis ipsliaterally –

BAM! Thank you, thank you. I’m here all week.
