Hello friends. Happy All Things Thursday!
My apologies; it’s been a while. Let’s dive right in. shall we?
Just in case you thought we Angelenos were completely devoid of culture, I’m here to prove you wrong. Los Angeles just became the home to a vending machine that doles out fresh burritos. Yes, it’s true. Choose a burrito, swipe your card, and pay $3 for what I can only imagine to be tortilla-wrapped mediocrity. So, if you have a hankering for a good old fashion case of mud butt, venture over to the west side and visit the Burrito Box. LAist
The Sriracha embargo has been lifted! Hooray! For those of you who have been worried about the Srirachapocalypse, worry not. Huy Fong Foods company plans to resume shipments of Sriracha at the end of January. Whew, that was a close one. Fox News
A gentleman in a Ford Freestyle crashed into a gas station yesterday morning. You’d think he had some elaborate plan to crack the safe and steal a buttload of cash, but he only took one thing…a banana. Really, dude? That’s a whole lot of work for very little pay-off. Oh, the things you do when your potassium level is low. Huffington Post

I can’t believe it’s 2014! Let’s make it a good one.
You must be the change you want to see in the world.

Thanks Mondo, you didn’t let me down for my “Thursday” fix of good laughs. I’m looking forward to David’s great shots in 2014, as long as he can stay away from the goodies.
Nice blog… I haven’t used the phrase, “mud butt” since our sweet and beloved callie had a bad case of the runs! haha
Thanks, Patty. Whenever I think of the term “mud butt”, I think of Dave Chappelle Show. Classic. Thanks for stopping by.
