Turkey Babies Chapter II

Top seven reasons

Minnesotans love cream of mushroom soup

7) Adds appealing gray color to steaming gray blobs of food


6) Warm, rich aroma of...wait. What does it smell like exactly?


5) Uffda uffda luteefisk, or something like that in Norwegian


4) Spackles dinner to stomach wall for safekeeping during vigorous polkas


3) Most hotdish ingredients would fling themselves from casserole,
unless properly slimed in place


2)The sensual, velvety sound of 'schlooooooook' when it comes out the can all at once


1) Little rubbery black chunks are so very...exotic.

*slaps forehead*

Silly me!

I should have included Iowans in that statement of love XD

[stalk-her.livejournal.com]

YAH! i'm norweign too!

[newlifeinstpaul.livejournal.com]

See? That explains it!

Wait. You're from Norweigh?

[stalk-her.livejournal.com]

no but my grandma was... from norway

[newlifeinstpaul.livejournal.com]

She's the only norwegian?

[stalk-her.livejournal.com]

and her whole family and my great grandma on my dad's side.

[newlifeinstpaul.livejournal.com]

Pshaw. That's not really Norwegian, that's kinda Norwegian.

Like Norwegian showing up in the closing credits.

[stalk-her.livejournal.com]

that's like 80% norwegian... which i think is a lot compared to other people.

Huh?

[newlifeinstpaul.livejournal.com]

How?

Grandma on one side at 100% Norwegian = 25% of your heritage
Great-Grandma on other side at 100% Norwegian = 12.5% of your heritage.

My paternal grandpa is 100% Pakistani, but that's only 25% of my lineage. It's how my name was chosen, I ate curry at least once a week...but that doesn't make me Pakistani.

[stalk-her.livejournal.com]

um no you're not taking into consideration the other 1/3rds and 1/2s that I didn't even bother mentioning. I'm mostly norweign and a little german and half of a percentage is dutch. what does it matter anyway?

Re: Huh?

[newlifeinstpaul.livejournal.com]

A half-percent Dutch?

See, now I really have to ask...

Re: Huh?

[stalk-her.livejournal.com]

Re: Huh?

Re: two things...

[newlifeinstpaul.livejournal.com]

Yes it is.

I'd do layer cakes in them--for the right person, of course.
