WHAT?!?!?!

What in the sam-freaking-hill!? This makes me quite pe-oed, I tell you what.

(NOTE: I did receive notice, but didn't know about it until I asked the dear husband tonight. When I asked where it was, he said it is in the big trash compactor in the sky.)

What if I didn't WANT Martha Stewart magazine?

(I mean, it's cool and all, and I'll still read it, and most likely enjoy it and probably take tips from good ol' Martie...) but STILL! She's just not as cutsey-crafty, and her mag is SO not as cute.

I already know to put a little marshmallow in the bottom of an ice cream cone so it won't leak, and to freeze leftover wine (what's that?) into ice cubes to use for cooking...but I can't make cards out of marshmallows and ice cubes.

Phooey.
