Home....it's so "Good"

We recently had a new store open in town.

Oh, HomeGoods, where have you been all my life? I am in love...even as my husband curses you.

Now, I admit, when I first went in, this gave me pause...

I'm not sure how many decorating opportunities there are for brass hands throwing the deuces, but anyway...

I am also pretty sure these could have been displayed more appropriately...

But it did start getting better, as I came across a sign perfect for the Little Kid...

Then I came across this lovely number and knew I was in the right place. I have a new obsession with white dinnerware, and this baby would fit right in at my house...

What I really noticed is that there seemed to be a real abundance of all things rooster-themed. Let me help you mothers of boys (and immature husbands) out for a moment here. A rooster theme is not going to work in your house. It just lends itself to a plethora of "cock" jokes. For instance...

Cute stool, right? WRONG. Unless you want to hear this all the time...

"Hey, want to sit on my c***?"

"What do you think of my big, giant c***?

"Check out my c***. It's made of steel."

(Of course, you could always point out here just how "little and cute" his c*** is. That always goes over well with the fellas.)


Better to just go with a cat or donkey decorating motif.

Then again...maybe not.
