Dear Martha Stewart,
This is wrong. Very, very, very wrong.
Granted, I am biased as I have very strong feelings against personifying something which I'm about to chew. (Remember when Domino's ran that commercial with those weird-ass brownies that show up at your door inviting you to eat a pan of weird-ass brownies? Gross.)
However, this is way worse than that because it's not "personifying" food as much as it's "foodifying" a person. A very little, confused, and scared looking person, who looks like it's about to be consumed with a side of Nana's candied yams and a slice of bourbon pecan pie for dessert.
Therefore, I revoke your privileges of advice-giving on Halloween costumes. Yes, I have that power. No you can't appeal this or throw money at me...unless it's a lot of money. I might bend for a certain number. Or for your house in the Hamptons.
Anyway, let's never ever think of this again - and lock it away with those other creepy babies-in-food-and-flowers-pictures-from-the-nineties-that-were-popular-for-reasons-no-one-can-explain.
Now, If you would kindly agree to make me my very own bourbon pecan pie, and get me on the list for a party on P. Diddy's yacht, all will be forgiven.
Sincerely,
MEvBLOG

assume, for a moment, you are a crafty mom struggling to come up with an original halloween costume for your infant. you immediately think of iconic fall things: the ubiquitous pumpkin, a baby witch, a ghost, eh...i don't know...a TURKEY? plausible. but even if your mind did go there (seems like a hell of a lot of effort for something that will be drooled on, but for argument's sake i'll continue), wouldn't the image you conjured be of a live turkey with multicolored tail feathers like the ones we drew with the outline of our hands in preschool? i mean, who says: "i'm going to dress little lexi up as a turkey for halloween." "no, i won't be needing any feathers. she's going as a butterball." martha m'f'ing stewart, that's who. she's a WHACKJOB. always has been.
martha must be a cannibal, who knew?
disturbing.
RE: ryan
Thanks for providing us with the (possible) internal monologue of Crazy Martha Stewart.
RE: comatosesoul
Totally disturbing. Enjoy reading your blog, btw.
I have a better one - lobster baby in a pot. http://welcome-to-monster-land.blogspot.com/2009/10/worst-halloween-costumes-ever.html
