before i go…

Some of you probably already read The Pioneer Woman and now how dang funny she is. I'm pretty new to her site, and enjoying it quite a bit.

And I know it's somewhat immature, but this made me laugh real good.

Off to Utah.

I totally love the Pioneer Woman - that was FUNNY! Warning: if you still are trying to minimize the muffin top, do NOT go to PW's cooking site. Big mistake. Big. Lots of yummy stuff made with real butter. Don't do it!

OMG! I laughed so hard! I have been reading her forever and watching enviously at her images!

Ree is awesome, isn't she...I have been a loyal reader for about 6 months now. She's one of my biggest sources of daily humor as well as photography inspiration.

Gotta love PW. She is very funny. If you get to read this before you leave Utah Cathy, I have a Scrabble game for you and am just down the road from CK-email me if you have time!

You and Pdub are both part of my daily routine... you both give me much needed laughter! Thanks.

Cathy---- thank you for guiding me to PW's site. I have a new favorite site... oh, I mean second favorite site, following yours of course.

Posted by: Angie S | January 08, 2008 at 10:34 AM

That is one of my favorite things from her site, and the one that made me want to go back every damn day for more.

Yeah PW makes me laugh! Between you and her my husband always asks, "What is so funny?", then we I let him read or listen or see, he always says, "Oh". Men!! Have a safe trip!

I just made her pot roast this morning, and my house smells delicious. She is funny.

Loved this site! I need to take a photog class and get snappin'. Thanks for the inspiration.

She is SO wrong! Absolutely hysterical, but freaking wrong all at the same time!! :)

Have a safe trip!!

Cathy - don't you love PW? I found her a few months ago. I was drawn to her photography of her family working cattle because I myself grew up on a cattle ranch and now living in the city, her photos made me really homesick (but in a good way). I love her 'black heels to tractor wheels' stories. Good stuff!

I have loved her site for a long time now. She's great. I also love her recipe site, The Pioneer Woman Cooks.

Posted by: Ashley Schultz | January 08, 2008 at 03:16 PM

'k...I at first was deeply offended that a mom would so blantantly exploit her poor kid with a speech impediment...but the thought of you cracking up watching that toally made me crack up...so we're ALL going to hell in a handbasket!

Hi, Cathy,

I just ran across this article -- Dave Grohl's Principles of a Happy, Successful Life -- and had to share - especially since he mentions Neil Young! :)

Enjoy!

How have I not known about Pioneer Woman before? You - I check religiously! THANK YOU for the sound clip and the link! And that food - oh it looks dangerous.

Posted by: Melissa Bailey | January 08, 2008 at 09:48 PM

Oh dear, I just lost many hours to that PW site! So funny, thanks for the link.

Posted by: bev | January 09, 2008 at 03:15 AM

Thank you for the link. Fantastic. a bit of my story too. I always thought of myself with black suits and heels in a big city (i am a lawyer...) and I have been founding myself for the last 2 years and a half, still a lawyer, but in east africa, driving a 4x4 in dirt tracks, enjoying flip flops and loving going camping in the wild with lions and elephants as neighbours!
Thank you so much for sharing this link Cathy!

Posted by: karine | January 09, 2008 at 10:08 AM

I love PW. Her stories are funny and her photography is outstanding. She also has another great blog dedicated to food: http://thepioneerwomancooks.com/.

Posted by: Penny | January 09, 2008 at 10:38 AM

Oh, Cathy! You crack me up. I seriously can't get enough.

Dang it to heck, I wish I would have seen that post to win something.........surely you would've picked me......out of 550+ comments!

Yeah right! A girl can dream, right!

Ha! Have a great week!

Posted by: b | January 09, 2008 at 11:53 PM

Never heard of Pioneer Woman or her blog before your post & now I'm addicted. I should be mad at you because I'm probably not going to be very productive at work today (too busy reading every installment of "Black Heels to Tractor Wheels: A Love Story"), but I'm not. Thanks for the link.

Posted by: Mindy M. | January 10, 2008 at 11:11 AM

Oh my goodness, I didn't listen to the 'juice bag' link before I posted that comment above - that is 'tears-streaming-down-my-face-from-laughing-so-hard funny' & I'm still at work, so my hand was firmly clamped over my mouth to stifle the sound.

Posted by: Mindy M. | January 10, 2008 at 11:15 AM

Oh yeah, I love Pioneer Woman. She is hilarious. I loved that bit too. It was so funny.

    Pete Burns. He just confounds me. Like, I just can't not look at him. Not that I think he's a freak per se, but maybe a titch. Yet in a weird way, I admire him. Maybe it's just his fabulous hair? His house mates seemed to like it, AND be slightly nervous at the same time.

    Seriously. Sing it, girl. I know that Jimmy Sommerville did a fun dancey cover, but you can't touch this. It makes me get up, and dance like an idiot in my office.
