Today, I was leaving the house and couldn’t find my keys anywhere. I looked in my pockets, I looked in my purse, I looked behind the Lava Lamp, I looked under the dog.
Nothing.
So MP tossed me her keys and I dashed out the door. I get to my van, open the door, and lo and behold! There are my keys in the ignition, and when I sit down, the idiot reminder chime goes off.
Of course, the chime never goes off when I’m leaving the van, only when I come back and find my keys waiting for me.
If you are a car thief and you’re reading this, don’t bother looking for my van. The BBD can smell intruders a mile away. I just wish she was as good at sniffing out missing keys.

Okay, you can’t add Crispy Cones to your grocery shopping list quite yet because they’re brand new. The concept is so basic that I can’t believe no one ever thought of this before, and I think that the inventors of the Crispy Cone will be mega-bazillionaires. They invented a dough using a special formula creates a drip-free cone. So basically, they’ve invented a way to make a savory (not sweet) cone and then fill it up with things like Asian Beef, Pizza toppings, and Teriyaki Chicken. The site says that the exterior dough does not get any hotter than a freshly baked pizza crust. Right now, there’s only one Crispy Cone location where they offer these and other choices. But they say that in a few years, the cones will be sold in grocery stores as well.
I can’t decide if this is a great idea, or the culinary version of Beta-Max. What do you think? Would these be good for families on the go or is it just too weird to accept?
