Apparently, too much spinach-artichoke dip does something to your head, because these appetizer dish sets just get weird. Take this guy, a sort of weird fractal snow-bot. Seems kind of complicated, just to hold guacamole. Ew. A guacamole-filled snowman? The world isn’t ready for that. Anyway. Having recently seen Gamara, I imagine this fellow spinning through space on […]
Not to judge anybody’s Christmas celebration, but…I notice they waited until after unwrapping a few presents before getting to the big, struggling, whimpering one. You know, the one that was tied shut and had no air ventilation. Okay, I know this is supposed to be a cute, faintly Norman Rockwellian moment, but this would only […]
It’s the thought that counts. I don’t know what the thought was, except “what can I get that costs under $.99? Hobby Lobby has a special on paint-it-yourself ceramics? Awesome! I still have the marker I used to write “MOM” on a coffee mug in may, go me!” The only thing sadder would be actually […]

In fact, you’d really want to avoid foods with any sort of sauce, anywhere near it, because it would be totally impossible to avoid staining lapels that big with gravy, […]
Okay, Goodwill, let’s just pause, step back a bit, and address some quality control issues, okay? Just a few…little…things.
