i done picked a pickle person.


so remember how i asked ya'll about the whole pickle thing? and you answered? and i was wowed? and floored? and amazed and my jaw dropped into my lap and i hugged my computer and danced around in the snow and sang little drummer boy?
or maybe i just said something like 'cool, yo' and went online to search for my own pickle ornament. for me, and a german friend of mine. who has a little tyke who's a little over 2 and would totally love to get into this tradition.
aren't these ornaments AWESOME?
okay. and i will SPARE YOU the saga that was my commute home. i drove basically about 27 miles IN TWO HOURS and fifteen minutes. but it's okay, bc i was off work at 3pm today bc of our very dissapointing employee lunch at MAGGIANO'S so if anyone in the maggiano's crew be readin' this post? only the mannicoti was good. but hello. alfredo sauce? is never bad. i take that back. but really. burnt salmon???? oh, SO not even going there right now. and i have to give you props, maggiano's, your calamari is especially scrumptious.
ON TO THE WINNER: Marchelle!!!!
and dude? i did NOT rig this contest. seriously. it came up with seven. and she was the seventh person to comment.
see?????

i have a pickle ornament! i picked on up at pier one several years ago and my husband and i started a new tradition that year - the ornament is hidden and whoever finds it gets a prize. except, of course, my husband will find it because it was just the two of us for the longest time and he was the only one looking (i did the hiding). anyway...

so yeah, i have one too!
