(Useless) Fact Friday
mariegunn: Dr. Seuss’ first book, And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street, was rejected 27 times before it was finally published by a friend (who coincidentally had just become an editor in the children’s department at a publishing house) in 1937. Seuss was about to give up and destroy the book.

Who said, "I find the idea of the super rich quite...
Give up? It was shoemaker to the fairly well off, Monolo Blahnik, in the Wall Street Journal.  “I find the idea of the super rich quite disgusting. I recently turned down a lot of money to create a mass-market type product. I don’t want to make that sort of money if I am polluting my brand.” I hate to rain on Mr. Blahnik’s Don’t-Show-Me-The-Money Parade but this...

Today Chandler insisted on peeing on the potty...
I don’t think I’ve ever actually guffawed before. I just guffawed. I think. I mean, it happened so fast. Anyway, this is from Nate Smith from “Improvising Fatherhood.” improvisingfatherhood: We asked him who else pees on the potty standing up, and he said, “Grandma.” Then it got real quiet and awkward.

Here are four words I never thought I’d see together. Ever.  “Slow cooker bacon jam.” (Here’s a link to the recipe, if you’re into that kind of thing.)

Take it from me...
If you’re going to put on a movie for your kids as you pack their things for the move — discarding things that are broken or missing parts and pieces — don’t choose Toy Story. (Sob.)

“Sometimes you’re listening but you’re not really paying any...”
– My six-year-old son said this to me this morning when I asked him to brush his teeth and he didn’t move. But it could have easily been said by another male in my household. An older one. One that I married ten years ago.

Sahmmy.com December Issue →
The December issue of The Sahmmy is online. It’s the funny web-magazine written by funny parents, for funny parents. I just used “funny” three times. If I had consulted a thesaurus, I would have substituted the second “funny” with “hilarious” and the third “funny” with “witty”. No, the first “funny” should have been...
