How to make Horse Piss Punch

Is piss a bad word? It's not at my house!

We make fruit punch a lot. OK, we don't. Kevin does. The last time we made it, I urged him to use Orange Kool-Aid instead of Red (or cherry, as some of you might refer to it). What resulted was a beverage that resembled "Horse piss in a puddle". It's a nasty shade of brown, yet it tastes OK...just not as good as the pretty version. Maybe it's just a mental thing, though.

So here's a recipe for the nasty looking version, but you can use any flavor of Kool-Aid you want (for the pretty version) as long as one of the packets is lemon flavored.

1 packet yellow kool-aid
1 packet orange kool-aid
1 packet purple kool-aid
1.5 cups of sugar
1 tall can of pineapple juice

Mix all of them up in a gallon pitcher and then fill the rest of the way with water. Serve over ice. (Didn't that sound professional?)

Alias was scary last night. I watched a great deal of it with my hands over my eyes. I'm such a wuss. They also seemed to have a spider theme going, which was totally unnecessary. Maybe it was originally aired as an episode around Halloween. That's still no excuse, though.

There's a new link on the sidebar of this page. A friend pointed me in the direction of a really funny blog. If you're easily offended, you might not care for it. He uses a little bit of colorful language, but he's funny. I particularly liked his entry entitled, "How to raise kids because some of you suck at it!"

Thank you to my loyal reader(s) who often comment. Comments make me feel special. Validate me. Please? I had to take the link to this blog off of my myspace page temporarily, but I'm working on a work-around. Sorry to those of you I cut off unexpectantly. It wasn't anything personal. Just some preventative maintenance.

Tonight I need to mow my lawn, which means I probably won't be jogging. I feel like such a jogging loser. Would anybody like to contribute to my liposuction fund?

vJenny,

2.5 cups of sugar...OMG. That has to be a sin. I have my bible out and I'm lookin for it. I'll let you know when I find it.

Jogging is soo much fun, even though I wanted to throw up at the end of my run this morning. I mean I literally wanted to throw up and barely resisted the urge.

lata....

Actually, it should say 1.5 cups, but if you think that's bad, we used to put 3 cups in.

Jogging always makes me want to throw up. I'm convinced all joggers are lunatics.

Jogging is bad for you...
Sprints/Intervals much healthier and better
:)

There aren't any sprint/interval races though. :(

OH, and Christina's moving to Ireland!
