Oh gawd, I’ve done it again - stuck my foot in my mouth, clear up to the ankle - LOL!
It’s hot, gawd it’s hot here. They’re saying the heat index this weekend is gonna be 118 degrees!
So I bought ice cream drumsticks.
They come wrapped in a little plastic bag, and there’s always a bunch of the crushed peanut topping that gets knocked off inside the bag. I’m always mindful when I unwrap it, to split the side seam very carefully, and then dump the toppings that have broken off into my mouth. Sometimes they sticks to the plastic bag, and I scoop them out with my tongue.
So (you can see where this is going, can’t you?) the boy gets one out of the freezer, and removes the bag, wads it up and throws it toward the trashcan.
He missed, the bag popped open, and toppings went everywhere.
I blurted out, “Why didn’t you lick your nuts off?”

A classic. One for the grandchildren. Preferably before they understand the joke; everyone loves a weird grandparent.

Haha! Gotta love that! I’m sure he appreciated that comment and is bragging to his friends that it slipped out. Very funny!

You were just waiting for that very opportunity, weren’t you?
Have a great weekend…

You were right about that foot Marti!!

Ahh, it’s so nice when someone else says something horrifying and embarassing instead of me, for a change.

lol! It’s a bit warm here as well that’s why I had a bowl of vanilla ice cream with fresh strawberries and blueberry jam. Lovely!

Too funny, Marti! But then he probably wasn’t too surprised by the comment since he HAS lived with you for a while now, huh? lol
I, too, carefully take the wrapper off of Drumsticks to save the loose nuts BUT what I do is take a bite of the chocolate/nuts/ice cream and then press the revealed ice cream side into the nuts in the wrapper and voila! (sp?) the nuts stick to the ice cream to be enjoyed in my next bite! (Uh oh, can you tell I take my sweet treats a tad bit serious? lol)

Hello, I just came across your site and glad I did. I have to say you are the first “other” Marti I have blogged! I remember those ice-cream cones way back when, they were hard to eat.

Ha! Good one:)

That’s great! I heard an innocent remark the other day about balls, but for the life of me I can’t remember it now! LOL!

You only inserted you foot. I too often open my mouth to change feet.
July 18th, 2006 at 10:08 am
Marti, Marti, Marti,
You’re a silly, silly girl!
July 18th, 2006 at 3:55 pm
That was priceless! I can totally relate to this, as I am always blurting out the wrong thing at the wrong time.
July 18th, 2006 at 9:13 pm
OMGawd! THAT was funny! I would have turned all shades of red on that one.
July 19th, 2006 at 12:58 pm
LMAO!!! And now I’m craving a drumstick. Yum.
July 20th, 2006 at 9:07 am
That’s funny. You are not alone. I know the taste of foot in my mouth too.
July 20th, 2006 at 7:21 pm
HAHA. Omg, classic. You are now crowned “foot in the mouth” Queen!
