Small Talk Six- Favorite Cold Beverages

I am participating again in Small Talk Six at MomDot.

Small Talk Six at MomDot is a weekly Meme with a different topic.  You can learn more about the Meme and the list of topics for Small Talk Six 2010 by going here.

The rules are:

Grab a Small Talk Six button for your post and sidebar.  Then post on your blog your response to the assigned topic of the week.  Your response can be as brief or elaborate as you wish, but must be in 6, i.e. a list of 6 words, 6 phrases, 6 sentences, 6 paragraphs, or 6 photos.

Today’s topic is “6 of your favorite cold beverages.”

 

I feel like I need to offer a disclaimer here.  I don’t drink a lot of cold beverages.  But, my favorite six are…

1. Iced coffee

2. Iced tea

3. Water

4. Milk

5. Diet Mountain Dew

6. Yogurt smoothies

I know, I lead a dull and boring life, right?  LOL.

What are your favorites?

Be blessed,

Fantastic Father’s Day Finds: Crazy Dog T Shirts

***Please Note–This Giveaway Has ENDED. ***

Please see Winners page for winning entrant information.

Lady V dZine

A few months ago, I was brainstorming, trying to come up with Father’s Day gift ideas.  My husband, Brian, has a knack for always knowing exactly what I would love to have and gets it.  I do not share that knack.  It takes me a while to find a gift that I think would be suitable.  I web browse for hours at holidays and birthdays and often agonize over getting him a gift.  Because he is an engineer, I rarely even bother with looking at gadgetry for him, as I know that he would make a much better choice on what to get.  So, I tend to lean toward clothing.

It was on one of these web browsing escapades that I found Crazy Dog T-shirts.

About Crazy Dog T-Shirts…

Birth of Crazy Dog T-shirtscdbowl: We’re CrazyDog T-Shirts and we made it here by accident. A beautiful accident to be sure, and one that has provided us years of entertainment, but still, an accident is an accident whether its spilling your milk or having a surprise kid.
7 years ago, CrazyDog Owner and CSO (Cheif Snacking Officer), Bill, started CrazyDog as an eCommerce project in the dark dormroom hallways of Ithaca College. Forgetting to take down the website, orders kept coming in, and Bill kept filling them, working out of his moms basement for a year or 2 before she stopped making him Meatloaf and told him he better start leasing the space or she’d stop making his bed and folding his laundry. Not long after that we started leasing space in the artsy Village Gate in our hometown of Rochester, NY; home of Genessee Beer, Garbage Plates, and a really nice water reservoir. Several years later our space is 3500 square feet of pure awesomeness; and we run the joint will a staff of 6 who love every minute of it.
Wondering what happened to Bill’s mean mom who stopped making meatloaf? She still works here Part-Time…packing shirts and doing Bill’s Laundry. In all seriousness though, we wouldn’t be here without some great customers. We have tons of original designs, and several that come from our partners such as David & Goliath and Junk Food Tees. We are the go to shop for funny tees, clever shirts and hilarious Couture. We wear the shirts we sell, and we think that stands for something nowadays. Real people read and answer your emails, not robots or tiny underpaid children. We think bacon is the bomb, we still say “The Bomb”, and we love naps. We work hard but have fun doing it. We are everything you think a company should be, and we stand by our promise to give you the quality shirts you deserve.
If you are unhappy with your purchase, send it on back and pick a new one! So give us a call, join the party on Facebook, Tweet us on Twitter, read the blog or peruse the site and have a giggle at some of the tees. Questions? Ask. Have a happy story to share? Email us, we love to hear it! Complaints? Speak loudly into our garbage can. We’re looking forward to having you as a customer and joining the fam. Cheers to happy accidents!

What I thought…

The site www.Crazydogtshirts.com offers a large selection of t-shirts, ranging from funny to weird and just about everything in between.  The site is easy to navigate and

Here are a few shirts from Crazy Dog T-shirts that I thought were neat…

Caffeine Addicted t shirtGizmo shirtAwesome Hands Shirt

Here is the one that I chose for Brian…

Ghostbusters t-shirt

He loves the Ghostbusters movies!

The Ghostbuster shirt is a licensed t-shirt as described on the Crazy Dog site.  As an added bonus, it glows in the dark.  I can’t wait for Brian to wear it to a bonfire!  The shirt washed well and has no flaws.

What I would change…

I wouldn’t change anything about the shirt from Crazy Dog or the site itself.
