10. M & M’s…Evil in a Candy Shell
Blogger or not, what is something you would never write?
Debbie @ Deb Runs says
When you’re ready to write a post about #9, please let me know so I don’t miss it! 🙂
Dana says
Don’t hold your breath 😉
Leslie says
Hahahahah! #9 definitely made me laugh out loud. And I’m definitely with you on #1. Though the husband would tell me I’m missing out.
Dana says
We’re not missing out…the stuff smells nasty. Your husband can have it all!
Tamara says
Yuck – I hate bleu cheese too! And I also hate just letting things go. You’ll probably never hear of me doing so.
Dana says
And that’s okay, right? I know I need to sometimes, but I’d rather be someone who holds on tight.
Allie says
Okay, that’s funny. I especially love number 7 and 9!
Dana says
If only #9 were true…
Mo says
Every.single.one. I would add “My Life as a Teetotaling Vegan”.
Dana says
Lol – that’s perfect!
Stacey Gannett says
Awesome post, Dana! I have to agree on the reading, I would definitely rather read than run! M&M’s are evil little things, aren’t they? LOL! No thanks on Politics, for me either. Hope you are having a great week!
Dana says
Yes, how can such cute little candies be so dangerous? They gang up on me in one pound bags…
Amymak says
Ha! I could never write the hair product one either; that made me laugh.
Dana says
My curls would be a rat’s nest – I never travel without my curl creme!
Bev says
“Why I decided to give up chocolate.”
I’m with you on just about every single one of them, although I’ll admit I like bleu cheese (just not enough to write a poem about why I love it so much!).
Dana says
You don’t like bleu cheese as much as you like chocolate though, right? I can’t imagine that!
Nina says
You had me at blue cheese lol. It’s probably the one cheese I don’t love! Dana this post calls for a challenge: you should pick one topic you said you’d never blog about and do it hahaha!
Dana says
That’s an interesting idea, Nina. Maybe I’ll do one for April Fool’s Day…it would certainly be a challenge!
Mimi says
Loved this! I also could not write an ode to bleu cheese. Or Kraft singles for that matter either. But most other cheeses could be a love song for me. With you on #7 too! 🙂
Dana says
I’m not a big cheese person in general…but give me chocolate and I’m a happy girl.
Kristi Campbell says
OMG I made millions blogging??? LOLOL!!! I sat next to the most delicious stranger on the flight home Sunday and as we were deplaning, he asked what I do and I said marketing and a little bit of writing. He was like “OH WOW” and ugh, I was like “UM YEAH.” Also the hair products? Perfect.
Dana says
Writing sounds impressive, doesn’t it? I suppose it is if you are Stephen King, but he has a gazillion more dollars than I do.
Nina says
Are you part of The Mix group through Hearst? I get the emails with their prompts, but I’ve never finished one because I swear they are somewhat like this list!!
Dana says
I’m not, Nina – but I just looked at their prompts, and I see what you mean. One for today is “I’m a Sex Addict.” You won’t find that one on this blog either!
Kirsten says
Dana, these are all fantastic. Love #s 8 and 10. I would never write: How I learned to love running and you can too. Never. Will. Happen. Cute idea for a post.
Dana says
I won’t take credit for the idea, but I agree with you!
My Inner Chick says
Less words is beautiful sometimes.
xxx LOVE!
My Inner Chick says
–should that be ARE beautiful????
Dana says
Thank you!
Jill says
I am with you on EVERY single one of these. I am a fellow bleu cheese hater. Ugh.
Dana says
I knew I liked you, Jill 🙂
Erica says
I love this! But #1 needs to include goat and feta cheeses for you…
Kenya G. Johnson says
#6 made me LOL. As for #10 I think I have actually written a post against M&M’s (talking about a break up or something). We still haven’t gotten back together. I have closure and I’ve moved on 😉 But you’re right, they were too good to be evil and I don’t think I used that word.
Dana says
I remember your break up post! Wow, I can’t believe you’ve stayed apart. I hope you haven’t sworn off all chocolate; that would be crazy.
Kenya G. Johnson says
Oh nooooo, never that. I keep a mix in the house that has dark chocolate chips, dried cherries and Almonds in it. It satisfies my sweet craving when I don’t have anything else. When I REALLY need chocolate I pick the chocolate chips out 😉
Dana says
Sounds perfect!
Julie S says
Great list 🙂 I also included a running topic in mine. Cause no. I completely agree with you that reading is a much better passtime.
Dana says
Yes, it is…although running is healthier! Just not nearly as fun.
Lisa @ The Golden Spoons says
Ha! I like Bleu Cheese, but not sure I could write it a love poem! I sure do wish someone would write #9, though!!!
Dana says
Maybe if I could write it ( and it worked), I’d have TWO million dollars!
Stephanie says
#7, #8 and #9 – me neither. Unfortunately, especially #9.
Dana says
I know…if only.
Rabia @TheLiebers says
Bleu cheese is just plain gross! I can’t even stomach the smell of it!
Dana says
Neither can I. Ranch dressing is equally gross for me. Blech.
Tammie says
#10!! I have given up M&M’s. It’s been 3 weeks now and I still want some……….
Dana says
How are you doing that, Tammie? I’m impressed. And a little sad for you. 🙁
Julia Tomiak says
My post I will never write: Never proofread your email; people will know what you mean to say.
This is a fun idea for a quick post. Thanks!
Dana says
It is fun, isn’t it? I like your post title – proofreading can keep you out of trouble.
Christine Organ says
Such a fun list! Love #3 and 4.
Dana says
Can you relate? My kids and husbands laughed at #4, because it is so spot-on.
Allie says
LOL! Short, sweet and funny – what’s not to love. Although you know I would never write #8 either but maybe read while you run!…only on a treadmill of course 🙂
Dana says
I thought of you when I wrote #8, Allie. I don’t read while I run – I would seriously injure myself. Although the last time I ran, I listened to an audio book instead of music and I liked it! Not the running, the listening.
