Longtime friends and loved ones will know I have a profound hatred for whimsical spelling. Apologies to you lovers of whimsy out there, but IT ISN'T CUTE. (Sorry I shouted.)
I'll drive out of the way not to go to Kwik Mart. I won't have a marTEAni shaken or stirred. Dear Sav-Mor Liquors in Somerville, is your booze is so cheap you can't afford "e's" for your sign?
Get it together, people!
Not surprisingly baby products embrace whimsy. Filed under "so bad it's good" has got to be "My Bre*stfriend" -- the nursing pillow. Seriously? Yes!
Why go with a Boppy (tm) when you can have a Bre*stfriend? Well, it turns out the version for twins is actually a lot better than other alternatives, so we got one. If your having trouble imagining what I am talking about (nothing new!) imagine a couch-sized pillow that you can lay two babies on to nurse. Throw some cargo pockets on this wearable couch, and add place for a water bottle and snacks, and you pretty much have the idea.
Like many baby items, eventually the pillow reached the end of its useful life as the babies became too large to fit on it. If you've been to our house you know we hardly have room for one couch, let alone two, so we thought we'd sell it to another twin mom on our twin listserv or Craigslist. It's in great shape so why not? Well, it turns out you should think twice before mentioning the word "bre*st" on the internet. Let's just say Chris has gotten lots of computer generated "invitations". Which brings me to another rant: what is the point of spam?? And porn spam?? What does it actually accomplish? Several advanced degrees later for this household and we have no idea.
Here's hoping my oh-so-clever, but not whimsical, spelling of this item protects this post from spam.
Good day to you all.
