As long as the baby doesn’t tell me NOT to put it on him, it’s going on him! Muahah the power of being in charge! (or at least part of the decision-making body..)

My favorite: the Tide refill maneuver. AWESOME! I wouldn’t have the guts to do that, but can appreciate the intent, because why waste money on a brand name detergent?

Second favorite: the line “If it’s on on sale, it doesn’t exist”. Probably not funny to most, but the extremism of it made me laugh.

Third favorite: putting a pen in a microwave to get full use of all ink. I’m with you there, not worth doing.

I do totally agree with the baby clothes comment. New, fancy baby clothes are for parents who want their kids to look like dolls. I suppose it’s a natural part of first-time parent syndrome, because I was all about brand new clothes for my oldest. With my second, I totally realized that those kids don’t even use toilets so why would they care about the newness of their clothes? Get them used hand me downs, as long as they’re clean and in good shape that’s fine for really young kids.

About Cable, doesnt it feel great to know you arent paying for something you dont really need and dont really use. I mean, even the most avid TV watchers pay for time they arent actually watching TV and it is such a waste will all the other options out there, the net, redbox, etc.

And I tried the baking soda and BLEH, it was horrible tasting, I will have to try the mouthwash afterwards and give it another try.

Also I haven’t had cable in about 2 years and I’m not dead yet. Who would have guessed it?!

I’d suggest a little swish of mouthwash after brushing with the baking soda/salt combo for that minty clean effect.
