Avoid Alcoholic Beverages When Consuming This Product

I'd planned on posting something with actual writing today for a change, but at some point this afternoon my immune system pulled a full out assault on my nasal passages and took no prisoners. I'm not sure if it was allergies or a cold but I washed down some Benadryl with a glass of wine and my body capitulated. I've been struggling to stay awake ever since and judging by the looks I've been receiving, my temper may be on a very short fuse. So once again I'll fall back on some food art.


Sure I could have written something profound or titillating but where would your day be without having stopped by to see a decapitated pancake man?



Up here in Canada we bottle their blood and export it as "maple syrup" to an unsuspecting world that believes it comes from a tree. Fools. You know why your Aunt Jemima is made of sodium hexametaphosphate and high fructose corn syrup? 'Cause we bled her dry, that's why. It's always the quiet neighbour, right? We're the quiet NATION!

Whoa! Sorry. Must be the medication and Halloween candy talking. Maybe I ought to call it a day.



Before I go though, I want to tell you that Middle Aged Woman from Unmitigated and I will be doing a book review of Pride & Prejudice & Zombies next week over on He Read/She Read. Right now there's a review up by MAW's husband Jim Styro and Rebekah from Waffles Waffles All Day Long. Check it out if you've never been there. I finished writing mine today and it's, well, special.

  5. I'm gonna register a complaint with the RSPCPM to report the cruel and needless killing of a pancake man.

  6. Yeah, I was gonna say something about you guys having awesome maple syrup but you clearly beat me to it. Then again, Vermont does a pretty good job too but who knows if they're sneaking it from across the border.. :)
    Feel better.

  10. We had pancakes with old Aunty Jemima last night - at least the kids did. As I rule I don't eat pancakes (must be the suspisious taste of the blood syrup from Cananda). I knew there was something wrong with all of you...

    Feel better and remember mixing wine and meds? Probably not such an awesome idea though I bet you'd get some goodd blog fodder for the future.

  13. You're right! It's always the quiet neighbor. And they're thinking about building a second bridge to Canada here in Detroit.

  16. I always suspected as much re: the maple syrup, and that you're really a nation of serial killers.

  17. What CAN'T you mold into the shape of a man?

    It's like cannibalism training camp up there, huh? That's good, get em used to the idea. They'll be ready by the time zombie apocalypse arrives. You're always thinking ahead.

  18. "We're the quiet NATION."

    I've locked that into my brain so that I might blame Canada for various future problems.

  21. Seems there is a sinus infection running around the internet. Please don't sneeze on me.

    And I am all about the realmaple syrup. I could pay tuition for what it costs over here, but it is the only way to go.

  28. This is why I like the Captain… he can decapitate the heads off of ginger-bread-man shaped pancakes and use Canadian Maple Syrup for blood.

    So clever of you!

    Hope you're feeling better soon.

  40. Now why didn't I think about washing my Benadryl down with wine? I'm so going to try that later today. Probably not a good idea at this hour of the morning. Or is it?

    I think I might have to make some pancake men this morning and chop their heads off...might make me feel better. And I checked - I do have Canadian Maple Syrup, so I'm all set! :)

    Hope you feel better soon!
