Back by popular demand! 

* The picture above is from My Parents Were Awesome blog. It’s rad.

* Vegie crisps are disgusting. It’s that time o’ the month in Smaggle land and I was craving something salty so I bought a bag of those ‘vegie’ crisps in French Onion flavour. I rarely eat packaged food and now I remember why. FYI vegie crisp company, you are not supposed to taste food for five hours after you’ve eaten it. Now I have nausea AND menstrual cramps.

* This actress from  The Craft and Empire Records is underated. She is awesome. 

* The a-hole that is late for the flight that you’re on and delays your arrival will ALWAYS get his bags first at the luggage carousel. 

* ‘Beer can’ said with an English accent sounds like ‘bacon’ in a Jamaican accent. (From Az)

* George, one of Roomy Smaggle’s fish has changed from black and orange to completely orange. He did a Michael Jackson on me. I think she thinks that he died while she was overseas and I replaced him which is completely understandable but I swear he just, like bleached his scales or something.

* Carrot juice is filthy. Carrot and apple juice is naked Johnny Depp. Actually in my head that’s quite filthy too… Oh Johnny, you stop that! 

* I thought Sarah Von from Yes and Yes had a New Zealand accent. She doesn’t. She thought my name was Sarah Margaret, hence ‘Smaggle’. It isn’t. I freaking love the way our brains gap fill like that.  

* Your knuckles is the WORST place to get bitten by a mosquito. Ankles and toes suck arse as well. 

* It’s ‘key lime’ pie, not ‘ki-lime’ pie. I’ve never seen it written before but in my head it’s ‘ki-lime’ like a kiwi and lime pie. Which I now realise is really stupid because kiwi fruit in America is a chinese gooseberry. So… what the hell is key lime?

* Apparently it’s okay to fart in public, sans embarrassment, in China. Sweet. 

What about you pumpkin pie? Anything to share? What did you discover in this crazy world today?

Love Lady Smaggle

    ah lady smaggle – a key lime is a small lime that grows in the florida keys, the birthplace of the key lime pie.

    I discovered a YouTube video in which a Tranny maces a kid in the face for picking on her.

    It’s the kind of thing that is so shocking and appauling that you CANNOT help but dissolve into a fit of hysterical giggles for hours.

    AAAAAND, I discovered I have a huge gay-boy crush on Lady Gaga. i’m going to go and see her next year I have decided.

    That’s all.

    In my little section of America, we call kiwi fruit… kiwi. 🙂

    And Americans do call kiwis “kiwi;” having a fruit with the word “Chinese” in it’s name wasn’t so popular during the Cold War.

    He he “beer can”, he he he.
    I sound Jamican. “Beer can”.
    This is awesome.

    i think they call it key lime pie b/c it was originally made from limes from the florida keys. it looks like a big delicious blob of jello to me though!

    Ahh, I loved this section.
    I thought the same thing about Sarah Von until I realised that she’d just been in little ol’ NZ on an exchange.

    yb – Awesome! Thanks!

    Grant – Totally. I love the gaga.

    Lar – I think I may have made that up… 🙂

    Katie – Yeah as above I think I made that up. Where do they call them chinese gooseberries though? Uk?

    Dr Stumpy – That’s Az.

    Katie – I can’t believe I was so mis-informed for so long.

    Sarah-Rose – Ah thank you! I know totally… I read her blog in my head in a NZ accent!
