Just seen this butter ad for Valentine’s Day that amused me.

I just looked at their website. Interesting folks.

Welcome to Lurpak

This is the place where you can get your sticky fingers into every homemade pie… Whip together your friends to create a Bake Club, sign up for a hearty serving of our e-Newsletter, download the tasty recipes from our adverts, and embrace the perfect imperfections of real cooking.

“The butter wouldn’t melt so I put it in the pie.” Now that will be stuck in my head all afternoon.

I can’t decide whether that ad is funny or just really rude. I’m surprised they were allowed to put that out.

All they suggest is that the lady in your life might enjoy a knob of Lurpak butter on her mashed/baked potato, or wherever else you might use a knob of butter. I don’t know what you were thinking…

Hmm yeah, I’m sure. And that’s why you found it so amusing, is it?

Always dangerous to offer your loved one something that might lead to her asking you, “Does my bum look big in this?” Always better to let her help herself to butter!

Smooth, mja. Now, that is a sign of true love. I’m impressed.

At breakfast in the hotel on Santorini this morning, they have Lurpak brand butter. It made me think of this post, @Ron Nasty!

From Paul’s FB:

Happy Valentine’s Day!
If you’d like to send Paul’s ‘My Valentine ‘ plus message to your loved one, you can do so here: http://www.paulmccartney.com/m…..-valentine
But remember, for them to find out who sent the song they must send it on to their Valentine. We hope it’s you!
#ValentinesDay

Is it just me, or does this seem like a potentially awkward recipe for disaster?

 

I guess it worked well last year, because they’re doing it again.

That, or they’re especially sadistic at MPL.

Beware of sadness. It can hit you. It can hurt you. Make you sore and what is more, that is not what you are here for. - George

Check out my fan video for Paul's song "Appreciate" at Vimeo or YouTube.

That’s probably it because I can’t see that working well.

Eric Clapton -> Pattie Boyd -> George Harrison -> Maureen

They see who sent it, they don’t have feelings for them, send it to someone else, cycle continues, everyone’s depressed.

Unless you’d send this to friends, but I don’t know what the message is like.

I’m assuming a plushy is a stuffed animal?

Zag and I are going out for a nice dinner Saturday night.

To the fountain of perpetual mirth, let it roll for all its worth. And all the children boogie.

One of my best friends’ birthday is on Valentines Day… And so is his girlfriend’s.

Can’t do anything wrong that day!

Yes, stuffed toy animal. I figured she would have something to remember when the flowers fade. It is a toy lion as I am a Leo :)
