This is hysterical. I’m so glad you guys are back!
Ha.
Welcome back and happy back to school!
I now have the awesome Patti LaBelle ABC song in my head.
Also, I love reading your lists/questionnaires.
You two are so funny! I loved this post and I can’t wait to see what you have in store for us now that you’re back from vacation. Welcome back!
I needed a laugh this morning … thanks!
Love y’all and the blog.
SUCH needed hilarity as I am ending my day. Glad you are back (and feeling better?)
I was just filling these out for my kids and now I’m tempted to do one for my husband. Thanks for the laugh and welcome back!
Yes, Naomi — I’m feeling much better! Thank you. Glad to be back.
J – good! Now to drink more citrusy Sauv Blanc (although I’m such an addict with the stuff that I’m forcing myself to drink red (( … not that it’s bad … but not my first choice)) because I can sip red so much more slowly!
love the BE CAREFUL part, oh how I can relate. I’m thinking of a tattoo of that on my forehead —
y’all are so rad!
Ah! Welcome back! It has been far too long for you guys not to post, so this is a perfect way to get back into the groove.
These such posts are some of my favorites!
I also have a special person that does not take to the runny egg. Glad to see I’m not alone. Luckily, he does brunch. I’ll let you know if I find any good breakfasty support groups for you two …
I love this, you guys are so funny. Glad to see you back. 🙂
Does Andy’s aversion to drinking during the day extend to the viewing of sporting events?
Andy,
I couldn’t agree more about brunch.
Sincerely,
Molly
Meg, I think I’ve been to one sporting event since our kids were born but, that aside: yes, it extends. Only possible exception: poolside, on vacation, but even then, self-loathing will find me.
@Andy- I’m thinking of a football game on television on a Sunday afternoon. Those games just don’t seem complete without my SIL’s chili and a Sam Adams.
Glad to hear about the exemption for poolside, vacation cocktails 🙂
SO funny!
Your wit has eased the empty house ache I have today… Welcome back!
omfg. so adorable. and jenny, you and i take the same medication!
I laughed out loud when I read the part about drinking during the day. As much as I love my cocktails, I hate drinking mid-day. It leaves me feeling groggy and dare I say, depressed!
You guys are so funny. I needed this on the first day back to school. Going to pour myself a chardonnay/medicine right now to celebrate!
This is all kinds of awesome! You guys are so cool. 🙂
Hilarious! Both of you are so funny. What a clever idea. Thanks for sharing.
I laughed out loud at this. Welcome back, both of you. Jenny and I have the same mantra. My husband never fails to make fun of me for it, but I can always forsee the worst case scenario.
I wish I could have you two over for dinner. Too funny. Welcome back!
I have to agree with Andy. Zucchini and eggplant are gross. It’s a texture thing, as they have no flavor. And I am going to blame Jenny for my newfound (refound?) interest in gin and tonics, particularly Hendricks and tonic. I had forgotten about those.
Thank you for posting this – it made my day!
This is great! very funny!
These are amazing! Thanks for sharing! and P.S. day drinking is the BEST! Tell Andy to channel his inner college kid on “game day” and maybe he’ll remember. 🙂
I love you guys. 🙂
Ha! The knocking on wood thing made me laugh. Jenny, may I introduce you to the UK version, which is touching wood? Much quieter 🙂
