The first thing I learned when our canine visitors showed up is that dogs are not like human houseguests. For instance, human guests tend to think twice before they lie on your couch with their tongues hanging out and all four appendages splayed up in the air, or eat out of your kitchen garbage, or mark their territory on your living room carpet. I mean guests who aren’t relatives.
Humor, pets, parenting, pop culture, media ...
although not necessarily in that order.

We’re lovin’ it, ‘it’ of course being a burrito filled with sausage
McDonald's expects to give out more than 1 million free burritos during the Leap Day promotion; for those of you doing the math at home, at 374 calories per burrito, that's 374 million calories released into the general population over the two-day period. Assuming about a pound gained for every extra 3,500 calories consumed, that's 106,857 pounds of body fat America's fast food eaters will be piling on, and all before the weekend.
Would you like fries with that?

Or for $3.99 you can get a bag of Hershey's Miniatures
Their big fruity summer seller? Check it out:
BLUEBERRY - Blueberry mixed with a dark chocolate ganache, hand rolled into a ball and dusted with a dark purple sugar powder. Very dark, rich and blueberry.This raises a few questions: 1) What the heck's a ganache? 2) Whose hands? 3) Does that dark purple sugar powder come with razor blades and a mirror? Because at these prices it better.
