First I want you to buy a box of Strawberry Frosted Kellogs Pop-Tarts.
When you get them home I want you to open the box. Now don't be afraid of
the shiney pretty foil wrappers. That's just the convenience of having
your Pop-Tarts pre-packaged. Just open one up and take the Pop-Tarts out
being careful not to accidentally break off any corners.

Next I want you to just literally pop the Pop-Tarts (hmm... that was
pretty clever... I should write that down... "pop your Pop-Tart...") into
your toaster. Make sure you put only one Pop-Tart in each slot. Now.
Here's a tip. If your Pop-Tarts don't seem to be getting warm I want you
to pull down the lever on the side of the toaster.

Now while our Pop-Tarts are cooking let's make a nice breakfast cocktail
to go with it! I call it my fantastic Pop-Cocktail! I want you to take
some grape popsicles out of the freezer. Put them in a bowl. Now just pop
the bowl into the microwave! When the popsicles are melted, take them out
and pour them into an ice cube tray. Don't be afraid to take the sticks
out of the melted popsicle. Pop the tray into the freezer. I have some
frozen already! Next I want you to get a tall glass and put your frozen
popsicle ice cubes in the glass all the way to the top. Next pour your
vodka literally right on top of the ice cubes. Your popsicle cubes will
keep your drink cool and give it a wonderful flavor!

Our Pop-Tarts should be done by now, so I want you to take them out of
the toaster. Use a fork to get them out so that you don't burn your
fingers. Put your Pop-Tarts on your prettiest strawberry patterned plate.
Next take a shaker full of powdered sugar and literally sprinkle it all
over your Pop-Tarts. Sit down by a roaring fire with your hubby and enjoy
your Pop-Tarts and your Cock-Poptail! Did I mention I love to have sex
with my husband? It's true. See my website for tips!

I forgot to mention that you can unfold the shiny foil wrappers the
Pop-Tarts come in and tape a bunch together to make yourself a beautiful
new tablecloth for your breakfast tablescape. And nobody will ever know
how easy it was to make or how little it cost.

They're frosted Pop-Tarts, so there's no need to sprinkle powdered sugar on
them. You may want to buy unfrosted P'Tarts in cherry or another fruit
flavor and plaster your sugar doilies on those, though.

Oh, and be sure that the plate you choose for serving is Melamine. Nothing
else will do.

Do you recommend sprinkling powdered sugar on him, too?

Don't overlook the decadence of chocolate or brown sugar Pop-Tarts for
late-night gorging. They're not well complemented by the grape cocktails
above (use Fudgesicles or Creamsicles instead) but, like closing time, they
have the power to make anything look good for few hours anyway.

Tablescape, schmablescape! Tape them cunningly and smooth them absolutely
flat, and you can run up a lame-esque sheath that will take his breath away!

Here is my Pop Tart story.

I was working extremely late due to a server outage and at about 10:30PM
had the hankering for something sugary.

I plopped my 75 cents into the vending machine and got the brown sugar
and cinnamon version, toasted it and then forgot that it was hot out of
the toaster when I sat back down at my desk.

Hot lava. That's the best description I can give it. Burned the roof of
my mouth quite well on that one. Now I exercise a little more caution
with Pop Tarts when I do decide to eat them.

EasyEasy! Get some vanilla premade frosting and embellish it with a couple
drops of strawburry extract (to make it taste homemade) and spread it ONto
the Pop-Tart.

Remember to add in a few drops of red food coloring so it looks just like
real strawberry flavor.

I'd have to sprinkle on my own jimmies or colored sugar, wouldn't I? And I'd
still need my doilies.

True, but we've pretty much covered everything else. There is one
more thing that bothers me immensely, her "creating dishes that all my
GIRLFRIENDS love." What, all the men in your life hate them? You
don't have any men in your life, other than your husband? Or do you
consider him one of your "girlfriends?"

If she is then she is the best one I have ever seen.
I just watched back to back episodes of her show and I had never
realized just how attractive she was. The way she throws her eyes at
the camera just oozes sex appeal. Who cares if she can cook. Even my
wife thinks she is hot.

Just how twisted are you & your wife. My husband thinks that she is a
cooking whore. We watch for sheer entertainment value. It's the equivalent
of the Jerry Springer show!

It is a matter of the 'style' of the dictionary, and the M-W dictionaries
have always been descriptive, rather than proscriptive. Easiest way to see
the difference is to think about a dictionary for writers and a dictionary
for readers. If the dictionary is intended to be at a *reader's* side,
then you want as close to 'everything' in it as possible [since if you run
across the word in something you're reading, you certainly want to be able
to find out what it means]. On the other side of the coin, there are
dictionaries intended to assist _writers_ and those include a lot more
usage info and try to discourage writers from using unacceptable words and
such. The American Heritage dictionary, for example, does *NOT* list any
of those inflected forms of "fun":

"Semi-ho" is Semi-homemade, the Food Network show with Sandra Lee. If
you've ever watched it, you'd understand the shortening to "ho" and
even the "Pop-tart" would make sense. She uses cooking shortcuts in
her show and store bought packaged ingredients like Rice A Roni,
preserves, Pillsbury dough, etc. The "How to make (Semi-ho) Pop-Tarts
was a post describing a mock Semi-Homemade episode about making
Pop-Tarts.
Those that watch the show have an ongoing discussion of the validity
of this show on the Food Network and often make fun of Semi Homemade
With Sandra Lee.

I know what a Pop-Tart is, I was asking about the
semi-ho part. I have never seen that show in question
as I do not get cable. I have occasionally seen some
cable shows at other peoples houses but not that one
unfortunately. So, I would never have guess that it
was short for "semi-homemade". It's funny, though.
Thanks for the explanation.
