deep thoughts

if you ever make hummus and drop a steaming hot chick pea down your shirt and it gets stuck in the canyon and burns you, let your roommate throw a handful of frozen lima beans down there, too. the burn is soothed and you have a serving of vegetables ready to eat.

i just read that out loud to my roommates. we all like...except the limas - i'd opt for peas.

sage advice, though my "canyon" might not be as...uh...hospitable to chick peas as others'.

i'll stop before metaphors get all mixed and such.

Jana Brookes said...

"Your burnt canyon." HA! I'm dying. So, so good, Jana. :-) If I ever start a band, I know what I'm calling it.

Nicea said...

Just call you Annie Handy and the Burnt Canyon Band, featuring Jana on the drums, Jaime on vocals, and Richard Dandelion on the steel guitar. Twang.

Richard: Don't you just hate it when you have to explain yourself to people who don't get it? :P What's FTW? (I know what it is backwards.) :0 :) :P :/

I think perhaps you need to expound on this :) And I will agree, it does sound like a Jack Handy!

annie said...
