Hybrids

Not vehicles...words. I've learned 3 new hybrid words in the last few days, and I really feel like I need to share the wealth. By hybrid words, I mean like breakfast + lunch = brunch {incidentally my favorite meal - probably because it's the only meal during which it is acceptable to have pancakes and dessert at the same sitting ;)}. Or like turducken - a chicken stuffed into a duck stuffed into a turkey or something like that. Don't worry, a turducken is not one of my three.

maletese + yorkie = {Morkie}

We got to hang out this weekend with my college roomate, Kimberly, and her husband, Brock, who also happened to be one of Josh's suite mates in college. They are two of our favorite people in the world, and we had such a great time! Even though we could not convince them to plunge into puppy parenthood {I'm pretty sure they think we are cah-razy ;)}, they had been looking at these little beauties. I hadn't ever heard of them before, but I think they are super cute!


Stop it, right?

.....

pumpkin pie + apple pie + chocolate & vanilla cake = {Pumpple Cake}

I realize I talk about Kathie Lee and Hota more than the average bear, but they showed this cake, and even though it sounds kind of completely gross, I'm just intrigued enough to want a taste. Can't you just hear Willy Wonka {the old one, not the creepy Johnny Depp one} offering children pumpple cake? Sounds way better than pot roast and mashed potato chewing gum.


That, my friends, is 1800 calories per slice.
.....

closet + office = {Cloffice}

I just learned this word on Viva L.A. , a new favorite blog of mine. L. and I used to deal drugs together {world's oldest/cheesiest pharmacist joke...sorry! ;)}, and she has been extra informative lately. This word actually has two interpretations.
1} an office in a closet.


That's cute, but this is better.

2}The function of an office combined with the luxury of having a whole room to spread out clothes and shoes and jewelry is almost more than my little heart can stand. Just look at them.




If you ask me, a hybrid cloffice beats a Prius any day of the week :)
