I just love this picture. I do wonder how they kept the babies still enough to paint on their bums. I think it would tickle! Of course, you can do quite a few things with Photoshop these days!
I hope everyone had a very good Easter, and remembered that the real reason we celebrate has nothing to do with bunnies that lay colorful eggs! Here we had a beautiful sunny day that started with a wonderful church service, and then an afternoon with friends and family. This year we went non-traditional and had enchiladas for Easter supper. Yum!

Lately quite a few of my visitors have been giving their own opinions of the blogs I review.I think that is fabulous. We’ll see what happens when someone disagrees with me, but for right now I am really enjoying the comments.
I think it is also great for the bloggers. I am only one opinion. Having lots of different feedback gives bloggers a better idea of what the whole community thinks about their blog, and what needs improvement.
Now I am trying to think of a way to reward my “comment reviewers”. I would like to say I would review every blog of every commentor, but I am already very far behind as it is. Do you have any ideas on what I could do?
Leave a comment here and let me know.
Thanks!

On this blog I review blogs. Some blogs review food. Most food blogs at best are boring. In the worst cases they are nauseating, with pictures of “food” that I wouldn’t feed my dog. Of course, I don’t have a dog, but if I did, he wouldn’t eat it even if I would feed it to him. Tonight, while perusing my Who Should I Review page I see a food critiques blog. I can’t help myself. I just know I will come face to face with a picture of pig slop, but I click anyway, and see this:

Uhh, Ok. I am not sure what to think about this. So instead of looking at the pictures I decide to read the words. And in reading I find that those people in Wisconsin are as strange as I think. Those long cold winters do something to your brain! But I bet they know how to drive in the snow !
So there are these three guys, who live in Wisconsin where the winters are long and cold. Lil’ Greg, Fluffy Jon, and the producer. They are they are bored. So being normal Wisconsin guys they start thinking, we like to eat, we like to blog, let’s make a blog about us eating. So far so boring. But then they put a little twist on it. They ask you to send them food. Any kind of food as long as it is prepackaged. You send them food, they give a dollar to the food bank. Then they create a funny video of Lil’ Greg and Fluffy Jon eating the food you sent.

The name of the blog is Gimme Something To Eat . I watched a video of the guys eating a can of something called fried dace. It was certainly amateur hour, but it was also pretty funny. Then I watched a video of Lil’ Greg eating Weight Watcher’s Snack Cakes . The video started slow, but when Greg started calling for a glass of milk it got pretty funny.
There are lots of pictures and some actual written commentary. The blog itself has a nice look. I like the colors and the layout. The videos could use some polish, but what do you expect from a bunch of bored guys in Wisconsin!
The blog is still pretty new, but I think with some time this could end up being a very funny, popular blog.
Now I am on the look out for something really weird to send the guys to eat!
