• I bought, prepared, and consumed bacon today, which I haven't done in years. It's long absence from my kitchen seems a little weird to me, considering how often I order bacon-related dishes in restaurants, but there you are. It turned out pretty well.
  
• In related news -- my smoke detector still works. Good to know.
  
• I just had some Ben & Jerry's Chubby Hubby ice cream. I think the name of this product indicates that men, as a group, are pretty laid-back. Feminists would firebomb their headquarters if they made Wide Bride ice cream, don't you think?

The reason it's called Chubby Hubby is because one of the employees at B&J watched everything her very large husband liked to mix into his ice cream and then suggested the mix to her bosses. They let her name it.

And yet Wide Bride would never be allowed. ;)

I guess my point was that it wasn't as sexiest as was being argued, as it was an individual's personal experience.

I don't consider Chubby Hubby to be sexist. Neither would I consider Wide Bride to be so.

The fact that one is an acceptable brand name and the other would not be in the general public *is* sexist however. One of those little ironies of life.

I'd buy Wide Bride ice cream...
What would be in it? Cookie dough, of course, and fudge...
What other comfort foods do girly girls like in their ice cream?

Ibuprofen.

LOL!

Butterscotch syrup. And hot fudge. And nuts. And whipped cream.

And cherries! And sprinkles!
