Kreativ Blogger Award: You Has It!
2009 January 6
Thea, Ana – I bet yall thought I’d forgotten. Aw hells no, I no had forgots. So thank you, very lovely ladies de Smugglers, for your kindness in passing this most beautimous award on. And as I have been graced by your kindness, I shall play.
Here are the rules:
- Mention the blog that gave it to you. (check)
- Comment on their blog to let them know you have posted the award. (check)
- Share 6 values that are important to you. (check below)
- Share 6 things you do not support. (Ooo, bitching – check below)
- Share the love with six other wonderful blogging friends. (check below)
Six Things/Values That R Important at Lurv:
- Kittehs. Meow.
- Long vacations. Think of the longest vacation you could ever conceivably take. Now multiply that by one million. Ready, set, relax.
- Freestyle motocross. It’s always more fun watching others do cool stuff that could get them killed. And not you.
- Cheesecake. Any and all cheesecake (unless it’s made of icky eews like tripe or Rocky Mountain oysters).
- Soft, warm pajamas and cold enough weather to justify them. On that note, when is the southern U.S. ever going to have another Winter?
- Teddy bears. They all need good homes.
Six Things that the Lurv Kitteh Says Boo Hiss To:
Look how it taunts you.
- Slugs. All slugs should die. By boot or salt, it matters not. They have declared my home theirs therefore I have declared war. Death to slugs.
- Sports analogies. One more and this football in my hands winds up your ass.
- Humidity. One, because the slugs love it. Two, because it’s humid. And horrible. And sticky and musty. And it makes my hair look like Helena Bonham Carter’s. Well, OK, I actually like her hair, but not in the Harry Potter movies.
- Stupid drivers. We’ve all met or seen one in action.
- Personal Space Invaders (PSIs), those people that like to glom onto your backside while you wait in line in a store.
- Natural, real bananas — high five. But banana flavored — barf.
For the share and share alike portion of our award festivities, I now turn the mike over to all you great bloggers. I think if you’re out there blogging, you’re offering something good in a great community. We all work hard and support each other, so here’s to you.

How can someone hate bananas? LOL. I lurrves it. starting with the shape *wink, wink*
I hate slugs too. They take over my garden, but I hunt them and then I throw them over the fence…muwahahha.
Real bananas are fine (well, but only when they’ve JUST turned ripe enough to eat, still a bit unripe). It’s the banana flavored candy and stuff. Makes me want to hurl.
I swear this one slug last night laughed at me in the kitchen. Said something too about never conquering his people. He went in the trash. He ought to be happy there.
*headsdesk* I read it and understood the opposite. *sighs*
anyways, I heart everything banana – even banana pizza.
Banana pizza? Is there a sauce of some kind? Tell me more, I might need to make it for breakfast.
I do that all the time though, read something fine, but brain computes it as the opposite. I blame work stress and lack of sleep. And all the 80’s clothing that I keep hearing is either back in style or coming back.
“Cheesecake. Any and all cheesecake (unless it’s made of icky eews like tripe or Rocky Mountain oysters).”
I would consider this blasphemy of the highest order. Yech.
“Real bananas are fine (well, but only when they’ve JUST turned ripe enough to eat, still a bit unripe).”
Yes! With a blush of green still on the stem. Otherwise they are banana bread food.
And, yeah, slugs are just plain eww.
How goes the WP battle?
I think I might have an idea on the new WP theme. Now to conjure up some time to work on it. That was what vacation was for, but vacation turned into other things. Grrr.
And you just know someone is out there making nasty, unholy and unnatural cheesecake.
I so agree on the banana bread food! Once they’re plagued with spots, banana game over.
Banana Pizza: Pizza Base, cheese, banana (loads of it, sliced) , sugar and cinamom, oven. Perfection. All Brazilian’s pizzerias do it. *wink*
So pizza base = tomato sauce? And regular ‘ole mozzarella cheese? This sounds like a very odd combo! May have to try it just to satisfy curiosity. Thanks!
NO NOOOOOOOOOO No tomato sauce – when I say base I say the pizza dough proper. No nooooo yikes! *shudders*
and yes, mozzarella cheese. you can also add chocolate *drools*
Oh, ok! LOL! I was like, Oooookaaay. Now it actually sounds good. Ooo, chocolate shavings, which’ll melt in delicate little streams all over it. Yes!
This post is a touchdown, a home run, and a hole in one–all at the same time!!! lololol
j/k…I hate sports analogies too. I’m so sick of football right now I could cry.
Cheesecake…vacations…warm pj’s. *happy sigh*
Slugs are gross, but I can’t kill them. I salted one a few weeks ago, then felt so guilty that I rinsed him off and set him back in the grass. lol
Jen, I’m sending this football your way!
Hubbster and 3 yo kidlet currently fight over TV time cuz he wants to watch so much football. It’s kind of funny to listen to them bicker.
So slugs can be reconstituted? Yeah, I admit to feeling bad my ONE time I salted one too. I usually just scoop them up in a napkin and toss them outside where they belong. It’s only when I’m really tired and my slug resistance is low that I toss one in the trash or something.
Slugs scare me. bleck.
Katie, I stepped on one one time, and had to bath it’s squished body off foot and from in between toes. This was one of those big North Western beauts too. FAT little fucker.
I think that’s when my hates started.
Jen, well, at least you tried! Bet you get into heaven on that one. :D
I dunno if the rinsed off slug survived or not. I salted him, then he immediately started writing around and secreting ooze, and I was overcome with guilt. So I grabbed the hose, rinsed him off, and used a leaf to move him into the grass where I didn’t have to think about him. :)
Wasn’t there a horror movie made about killer slugs? That would be my hell. slugs crawling all over me. yuk yuk.
“I so agree on the banana bread food! Once they’re plagued with spots, banana game over.”
HUH? Are you aware that the banana isn’t ripe until the brown spots appear? Really, I can’t stand the taste of green bananas. BLECH! And that artificial banana flavoring is just flat out disgusting and inedible. Except on Runts and banana popsicles, then it’s all good. ;-D
Slugs invade houses? Seriously? I never knew that! I always thought they were strictly a lawn and garden pest.
BTW, I’ve always been told to put out a pie plate (or other shallow dish) full of beer. Slugs LOVE beer and will then fall in and drown.
Ugh, I hate slugs too….they’re so icky and gross and just need to stay far, far away from my front porch. I hate humidity too, humidity and my hair do not mix.
Oh, Bev, I live in my own little world, where ripe bananas are indeed that bright yellow shade just after having been green. A slight green tinge on the very top or bottom is fine. When they get their spots, not only is that when they start to look like a big turd, or rotting, but the sickeningly sweet taste comes out. No. La blech.
But the slug bait, that is both awful and I’m LMAO at the same time. Get ‘em drunk and drown ‘em! Now, let’s see how this goes over with hubbster. Will he part with his beer?
Rowena, we are sisters in humidity hatred. If I never experienced it again, I’d be a happier person. Well, moderate humidity. But I don’t think the southern U.S. has ever had a moderately humid day. :-I
kmont – Did you know that slugs love beer? If you pour beer into a shallow bowl, they’ll climb right in and drown.
I know this because once my mother got the genius idea of killing the slugs in our backyard using the beer in shallow bowl method. Our Golden Retriever then drank all of the beer (and dead slugs) out of the bowls and proceeded to barf them up in our living room.
This story brought to you by the letter S. For slugs.
OMG, Kati! That’s awful! And I’m still giggling from Bev suggesting the beer too.
My luck is the cat would do as your dog did and…yeah.
So thanks a lot Letter S! LOL.
All the slugs in my area have big shells, so I guess that makes them snails then, right? Whenever it rains we get about 20 snails on our back porch. It’s enough to make my skin crawl right off my body.
Amen to the humidity, it does unholy things to my hair, too.
Yeah, wet and slimy is not a good combo, Brie. Well, and neither are the two separately either if we’re talking bugs of any kind. I know they’re not bugs persay, I just can’t remember the right term ATM.
Humidity seems to be almost everywhere really. My mother said it was very humid in Alaska when they were up there one summer on a cruise. I’d never have guessed, as we always went to Washington state for summers when I was a kid and we barely ever had humidity there.
When I think of slugs I think of the X-Files episode called “Roadrunners”. No, not the best episode, but it spawned the almighty JebuSlug!
I googled and miraculously there are still tribute sites lingering about!

Always kinda wanted a WWJSD sticker…

Heh…I just noticed that I said the slug started “writing around” after I salted him. Um, that should be “writhing”, not writing. LOL
Jen, lol! I didn’t even notice! My brain knew what you meant. Which, I’m thinking, “Go Brain,” because *snort* I have that pot-holed Mommy Brain.
Thank you, Holly! There’s not much really I get up in arms about, but spotted bananas vs. just turned bananas? You bet your petukas I’ll stand for my position. :D
You seriously crack me up.
I’m w/ you. Bananas are only good when they’ve just barely turned ripe but aren’t quite ripe yet.
But… but… some types of bananas NEVER lose the green on their ends, so the only way to tell when they are fully ripened is to wait for the brown spots to appear! Only THEN have they sweetened to perfection.
Now a banana with brown STRIPES is nearing the end of it’s ripest and sweetest, but then quickly turns to YUK. However, the brown stripe ones (not the gross allover mushy brown) are PERFECT for mashing up for banana pancakes and banana cake, and banana bread and banana smoothies. YUM! I just made myself hungry.
Hee, who ever thought that Kmont would be hosting banana wars on her site!
LOL!! Bev, I will stand by you on bananas ripe enough for bread, pancakes (that sounds really good) and all, but if I’m going to munch on a plain one for breakfast or a snack, it has got to be at that barely still green state. I like the almost tart taste. When they get spots, they are way too sweet, which is really odd for me since I’ve barely ever met a dessert that was too sweet. Weird, huh?
Until next time – on Banana Wars!
How can one hate sports analogies! That’s as unfair as the Colts defense crapping on facemask and other penalties in OT when all they needed was a stop to get the ball back to Peyton.
….hehehe you love me, don’t you? *backs away before kmont’s football comes anywhere close to the delicate rear area*
WordPress isn’t sending me notices of new comments! Garrrrrr.
LOL, that’s not a sports analogy, Thea! I mean when sports talk is used for motivational camaraderie at office meetings. Or posted by the coffee makers in the dang office. Or belted out during office damn luncheons, while the person about to commit the horrible analogy makes a joke about how nobody wants to hear them make YET ANOTHER lame sports analogy. Garrrrrrrrr!
Don’t worry, I would NEVER put this football up yer rear. :D
