Friday Funnies: Will the Glass Slipper Fit?

I'm not sure that I even need to write much about the photos that I am about to show you...

My six-year-old brother, James, got a hamster for his birthday last year... he loves her with all of his heart and treats her as if she is his daughter (or something like that).

So when the duke got here with the glass slipper for all the ladies in our household to try on, the hamster was no exception.  (BTW- she has had multiple names over the past year but nothing but "the hamster" has stuck)

It FITS!

Who would have known that the first one of the girls to go would be James'...

Won't the prince be pleased with his new bride?

Hope I gave you a little laugh :)

Go Ahead- Crush My Dreams!

A year or so my friend told me about a new sensation at McDonald's. (she had to tell me about it because we NEVER go there!)  I'm not going to mention any names but let's just say *she* got me hooked on a blessed mixture of chocolate, coffee, cream, and sugar topped with whipped cream and drizzled with a fudgy, oozy, chocolate sauce.... <drooling>mmmmmmm.....

Now I knew that they weren't good for me.  They were definitely a special occasion thing...  I told my mom that I didn't want to know the calorie content- I was going to get one today and was going to sip and enjoy it in ignorant bliss.  I though that was that...  Yeah, right.

Next thing I know I see her on her netbook with a horrified look on her face and she said, "You're right- you don't want to know!"

 

Turns out a small Mocha Frappe contains 450 calories and 20 grams of fat.

Medium: 560 Calories and 24 grams of fat.

Large: 680 Calories and 28 grams of fat.

I could spend 1/3 of my daily calorie intake on one drink?!?!?!?

Thanks, Momma.... you crushed me... now I have to go look at the nonfat selections...

(Actually seriously, thank you- helping me make wise decisions! ;) )
