Greetings from the Omnigraphic Blogopticon. On view are vile sticky things dragged from the attic, snarky commentary on the world at large, and all-encompassing ennui. All that and a weird rubbery smell. A horrible time will be had by all.

Ice Ice Baby

I was saving this for another day, but since my buttheaded brother seems to be having a minor stroke about my Thanksgiving post I'm forced to use it now.

Picnic Menus, New Idea Woman's Magazine, June 1906.


Not only do they not give the recipes for any of the more distressing dishes, they also insist that one invites Vanilla Ice to the picnic and somehow contrive to get him into Tiny Nutmeg Melons. Perhaps he wears them like a brassiere and does a suggestive little dance.

Word to your mother.
