Jeff and Heather Abandon Their Child for 18 Hours

I haven't blogged in a while, because who cares, right? Also when I was working on this post, I spent a good amount of time on it and it had many pictures and witty remarks. Then I clicked on something and all of a sudden the post, and witty remarks, disappeared. I then spent an hour trying to recover it. That didn't work out, so I had to type everything again. So for a while I decided to play Borderlands 2 instead of blogging, is what I am saying. 

Anyway, in some distant time ago (September), Heather and I had a night off from Connor and spent the evening in Boston. We went to Boston and went to go ride bikes, like we do, when I noticed I had a flat tire. I usually fix my own flat tires I should say, but we were in a race against time to get somewhere, so I brought the wheel to some bike store a block away. While I was at the bike shop I bought a hat to wear underneath helmets. I bought this:

Better Know Your Arnie: T-Shirt

BKYA is a feature on this dumb blog wherein Jeff writes too much about a variety of his favorite beverage, Arnold Palmer Iced Tea Lemonade.

Arnie came out with a clothing line this year. As the world's most famous blogger about beverages named after Arnold Palmer, I bought a bunch of stuff. I don't think his line did well since Amazon.com had a big sale. One item I bought is just a t-shirt with his logo on it:

Well, I have to say, the t-shirt tasted really bad. It wasn't even a liquid. I tried chewing on it for a time but that was a pain and unrewarding. I put it in a blender, and that didn't help much. I then added some liquid Arnie, and I was at least able to swallow it. So, yeah, I do not recommend eating Arnie's clothing.

Jeff's Score*: 1. One point above the Skinny Arnie that tasted like metal. That Skinny Arnie  I feared for my health. The T-Shirt one I knew it was just cotton.

Varieties: White and Black t-shirt

Availability: Low. I don't think there will be a 2013 Arnie Collection.

Stores:  Amazon.com and some golf stores.

*Jeff's Score is a weighted score where Regular Arnie is a 90, Redneck Arnie is a 20, the one Skinny Arnie I had that tasted like metal is a 0

P.S. I think this might be the dumbest thing on the internet. First of all, it is a post on a really dumb food based blog. It is also the 12th in a dumb series (BKYA) about a dumb beverage. And then the whole point about this particular post is a dumb joke where I pretend I am so dumb that I ate a t-shirt. I know the internet is really large and filled with lots of dumb things, but I think this post is in the top 1% of dumb things on the internet. Thanks for reading is what I am saying.

Better Know Your Arnie: The $4 Peet's Arnie

BKYA is a feature on this dumb blog wherein Jeff writes too much about a variety of his favorite beverage, Arnold Palmer Iced Tea Lemonade.

Hi. I haven't done a BKYA post for a while. You guys probably think I have run out of Arnie varieties, fear not, imaginary reader! I just haven't felt like spending my free time writing about beverages no one cares about.

Anyway, I present to you the $4 Peet's Arnie:

I don't drink much coffee. I like it, and have had heavy coffee habits in the past. But in order that I don't feel bad about my soda and Arnie dependency, I try to avoid too much coffee. Heather drinks coffee. Sometimes she goes to fancy coffee stores, some of them have an Arnie alternative which I order, at Peet's they call an Arnie an "Iced Tea Lemonade". I call it the "$4 Peet's Arnie". Regular Arizona Arnie's are $1. Is it four times better? No. But it is highly scored in my stupid blog.

Jeff's Score*: 93

Varieties: Just this one

Availability: Low. Only at Peet's

Stores:  I just told you. Only at Peet's. These categories are stupid.

*Jeff's Score is a weighted score where Regular Arnie is a 90, Redneck Arnie is a 20, the one Skinny Arnie I had that tasted like metal is a 0

This Dumb Blog News: Equipment Upgrade

Hi all,
Sorry it has been so long without a post. I just haven't felt like it. I do have a backlog of about six different pictures of a beverage containing half iced tea and half lemonade. So you have those to look forward to. Speaking of pictures, this post is just to announce I have upgraded my photographic equipment. Most pictures I put in these blogs are taken on my phone, because I'm lazy and it is easier to upload them from my phone. Well, I got a new iPhone 5, replacing my iPhone 4. One of the main upgrades in the phone is that it has a better camera. So you have higher quality pictures to look forward to. For instance, I took a picture of Thomas the Cat with my iPhone 5:

Here's a picture of the same cat with my iPhone4:

Much better, don't you think?

Jeff's 37th Birthday

Hi. It was my 37th birthday on Sunday. 37 is kind of boring. 36 was 6 squared, so that was exciting. I guess 37 is a prime number, and it's been six years since the last prime number birthday, so there's that. Ah, you guys don't care about math, you want to see some food. First, since I took the photos, I should mention I always try to go to the closest Sox game to my birthday. This year it was two days before my birthday:

The tickets were front row in the bleachers. There was a big empty aisle in front of me so I was obsessed with the chance I could get a HR ball. The game was terrible, the Sox lost 2-0 to the Yankees and I didn't come close to a HR ball. Can this season just end already? Then the next night Heather and I saw Bloc Party at the House of Blues:

Concert photos with a phone are always bad. 

Anyway, let's get to my birthday. I got to sleep in. I woke up around 7:45, but didn't get out of bed until 9am. That's sleeping in for me. Heather got me breakfast. So here comes the food, are you excited? Bam:

Eggs: Egg McMuffin

I recently heard that Egg McMuffins have less than 300 calories. I was surprised that they could manage that. I then thought about it and I don't think I ever ate an Egg McMuffin before. I've have the Sausage McMuffin a few times, maybe, but not the one with ham on it.

So one morning when Connor didn't take a morning nap, we moseyed down to McD's to get an Egg McMuffin. Similar to the first post on this blog about the Filet-o-Fish, they happened to have a promotion, two McMuffins for $3.33. One was about $3, so I had to get two. My first Egg McMuffin:

For the second, I got the Sausage McMuffin:

Connor had some of the Muffin part of a McMuffin:

I thought it was pretty good, especially for under 300 calories. I got sick of it pretty quickly though. I ate a little over one McMuffin of the two. Connor ate a bunch of the muffin of the rest. I don't think I'll get one again. I would just wait until lunch was available, then eat somewhere else because McD's isn't very good. EGGS!!!!

Eggs: Sunny Side Up

This will be a nice and short blog because, I've been writing about eggs too much. But, I made Sunny Side Up eggs the other day. This is the egg:
