About a year ago, my friend and former roommate Kay and I determined that Vinnie Testaverde’s last name (he’s the aforementioned Jets quarterback, for those of you who don’t know football) translates to “green balls.” She’s a Spanish minor, and I took seven years of it, so of course we thought this was hilarious.

Right before Christmas, we decided to make a big batch of gingerbread men. The whole house was involved. We had a bunch of candies to decorate them with, including red and green sprinkles, white frosting, and Christmas M&M’s. I used the white frosting and green sprinkles to make a rough Jets uniform, and put two green M&Ms right in the gingerbread man’s crotch. Yes, I made a Vinnie Testaverde gingerbread man. I’ve never seen a bunch of girls laugh so hard in my life. Gingerbread Vinnie became somewhat of a house mascot, until someone ate him.

Maybe you had to be there.

Did any catch what I did? I repeated gypsy’s line about having a scroll in my toga… I just saw that and realized what a freaking dork I can be. (only took me a few days!)
