Slumber Parties

Public Service Announcement: I would like to inform our readers that the moms are now into throwing slumber parties. Now I’m not talking about the kind where a group of women get together and buy “adult toys” like they would Tupperware. (Although we did have one of those parties recently and for anyone who’s curious including iCandy – No, there is no sleeping involved.)

The kind of slumber parties we are talking about are real deal where Minions cause havoc all night long and moms have an excuse to throw pillows at each other. These parties can be FUN for all ages and why not! The Minions aren’t the only ones that know how to have fun. We moms have been practicing for years.* Why not use those skills!

During our last slumber party we re-discovered a few party essentials such as where to hide your drinks, truth or dare, and floats. Yes floats! However, our floats aren’t the run of the mill root beer flavored ones. Oh no, most definitely not! We moms used wine. We took a scoop of rich chocolate ice cream placed it in a cup and poured in one of our favorite red wines. It didn’t look like much but after some serious double dog dares we ALL gave it a try. The result was amazing we all had to agree that it was much better than it looked! In fact the result was actually quite tasty resembling some of the chocolate dessert wines you can buy… not that we were able to finish off the whole drink, but all and all it turned out to be a successful experiment.
Another thing we re-discovered at the slumber party was that those mischievous games you play at sleepover’s still work on adults! Yes indeed, get out your markers girls (the ones that wash off with water please) and watch the mayhem ensue. The end result for was… well… I guess you will just have to see it for yourself:
Yep enough said or viewed as the case may be.

* Notice when talking about our childhood, the Momadonnas carefully omit any reference as to exactly how many years…

Smoking Hot Bitch

The Momadonnas seem to love bets, there was the week without cheese and the bikini dinner just to name a few, but this time they have a realistic worthwhile bet – Bitch is quitting smoking! She has decided to quit smoking for a month and maybe longer (we are crossing our fingers on this one). Unfortunately we are all also waiting for the explosion! This is because Bitch has decided there is only one way to stop smoking and that is cold turkey! Very cold turkey indeed! This turkey is so cold it’s frozen. She said I’m done and that was that. She just quit. The Moms, however, don’t think it’s as easy as she is making it out to be. So, just in case, we have the Bitch Support Structure securely in place. We have Ringleader leading the way with her daily dose of love and support. The Professional is there with her consummate knowledge, skills, and encouragement. Then there is Punk -she offered to quit smoking with Bitch, which is a very nice gesture, but since she doesn’t smoke (and never has) we’re not sure how much help or understanding she can supply. Of course it could be she just wants a patch – think of it, Punk bouncing off the walls like a 5 year old on sugar. Um… hum...well now... I guess that could be interesting. Not that there are any patches to give her because as you know when Bitch quits she just quits so "Patches, we don’t need no stinking patches."* Well, at least for now. You have to be careful what ideas you give the Moms, sometimes those ideas comes back to haunt you.


*It is a quote from Blazing Saddles (A Punk Movie) which in turn misquotes The Treasure of the Sierra Madre and of course we misquote even the Blazing Saddles line by using Patches for Badges. Oh yes, you were just part of a Momadonna Movie History Lesson!
