Quick bits
OmegaGranny writes about the merchandising related to SpiderMan 3. Just by coincidence, I had come across (via Clicked) this uproar about the collectable Mary Jane figurine. She features a peek-a-boo thong! She features boobage spilling out the top of her shirt! She’s barefoot! She is daintily washing Peter Parkers’ spidey costume! And, as the feminists say–all that’s lacking is her being barefoot pregnant (pregnant, dammit!…yeah, I can think and type at the same time) and she’ll fit every nerdy geeky comic reader boy’s wet dreams!
Over to the left, you’ll notice a couple of badges that show I’ve been nominated for “Hottest Mommy Blogger” (?!) and “Best Parenting Blog”. The lovely Miss C. did the deed. I think if you want to vote, you just click through and vote, but am not sure.
OmegaDad, the OmegaFamily, and the Geography Gals got together last night for a potluck Mexican feast, capped by a lovely lemon flan made by the marvelous C., whose parents are caterers and who bakes like a dream (Boston Cream Pie with kir ganache, anyone??). We all pigged out greatly.
