Huckleberries Online

Best of the Local Blogs — 1/30/06

*I was chuckling (nervously) as I read the analysis by Marianne Love/Slight Detour that compared the full-page ad in today's paper about the Jenny Craig weight reduction plan to the size of the new SR model here.

*Family Phil makes a good argument re: why all-day kindergarten isn't a good idea for families like his who have a parent available to care for the kids here.

*Amyrebba bids a sad farewell to the family Trans AM, which she sold on Ebay, but she knows that financial freedom is more important here.

*Bre/To Blog or Not to Blog struggles with her diet at the one-month mark as she watches weight melt off her husband ("those darn guys lose weight faster") here.

*Stebbijo/Your Choice can't believe hot dog kits are now available for the uber-lazy, just in time for the Super Bowl, here.

Also: Cis doesn't have an opinion about the new SR look because (drum roll, please) she didn't get her fish-wrapper today here, Erin welcomes her family back from India here, and CDADave goes through brief withdrawals as he gets through a weekend without sports here.
