I have a confession. I’m totally hooked on Twitter. The short format makes you get to the point… now and makes for some of the most pithy, funny, laugh-out-loud commentary I’ve seen.
Here are a few of my favorite examples from the past few months:
“I” before “e” except after “Old MacDonald had a farm” @meganamram
“Imagine when paper was invented and people said, “It’s just not the same as reading on that dead sheep skin.” -Barbara Kingsolver @penguinusa
Every week with a toddler is like that scene in JURASSIC PARK where the velociraptors learn to open doors. @ChuckWendig
“Oh, you won a gold medal for running 100 meters? We just landed a car on Mars.” Nerds:1 Jocks:0 @mike_critz
If you see or tweet something funny, make sure and send it my way! You can find me on Twitter at @bananas.

Dear Jen,
I really enjoy reading your blog, especially because you write about all aspects of motherhood from your day-to-day life to a day with the kids. It’s always refreshing to see humor in parenting.
My name is Suzi and I just wanted to reach out to introduce myself as a point of contact for a sneak taste event happening at High 5 Pie on Capitol Hill.
In celebration of Mommy and Me Mondays, which debuted recently, High 5 Pie is hosting a one-day only FREE pie tasting for kids on Monday August 27th from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm. There will be crafts, games, and books for the kids to play with while mommy (and daddy too!) can enjoy a Mommy and Me discount drink of your choice. We would love it if you could come and join us in this celebration of family.
Please let me know if you are able to attend! We hope to see you and the family next week! Feel free to share this with other parents.
Mommy and Me Mondays are held every Monday from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm, and it’s not just for mommy. Daddy, grandparents, guardians and even siblings are more than welcome to come in for Mommy and Me Mondays. Bring in your little one and receive a free coffee drink or kids drink with purchase of a pie item.
Best,
Suzi
