It's a.....Jicama!

From this week's pregnancy email: "By now, your baby weighs 3.75 pounds (pick up a large jicama) and is about 16.7 inches long." Yeah. That's so helpful. (Trisha---they are definitely running out of vegetables!)

First Redamak's Visit of the Season!

We stopped at Redamaks on the way to visit family in Michigan... Most people don't get this excited about a cheeseburger, but these are both the best anywhere and bring up many happy memories of childhood. We may eve go there the next 2 weekends in a row! After that, it may be a while before I do any more road trips!

Ha, Ha! Funny ads

I love a lot of things produced by the Ad Council...this one about fatherhood made me laugh out loud:

You don't say...

Your coffee is hot? Really? I guess with the prevalence of iced coffee these days, it's good to make that clear. I don't know why I was struck by this sign...just thought it was goofy. Interesting word order choice, too. (I can't help it...I'm a grammar nut.)

It's too bad that they're across from Dunkin' Donuts, and not far from Starbucks, Caribou, McDonalds, and even 7-Eleven. I applaud them for attempting to break into the market, though!

Train-appropriate reading material

I know I shouldn't care what people think of me, but I realize that lots of train riders can see what you're reading. I started to flip through a really good issue of Pregnancy magazine that my friend gave me, and realized that some of the article topics and ads are a little embarrassing. I'll leave the rest to your imagination. :)
