Favorite... fridge magnet?

This may be the dorkiest thread yet -obviously I'm trying to come up with anything to avoid cleaning up the house....

Do any of you have a refigerator magnet that you just love? What does it say about you?

Here's mine:

We'll settle for Boursin on Buitoni toast. The garlic will turn your breath into a laser beam but I don't know your definition of 'stinky' of course Simple pleasures are the best

Sorry, Lisa, our fridge is stainless so magnets need not apply.

Is your fridge like ours? It's stainless, but the sides are not so the magnets stick there just fine.

Well, I'm going to sound pretty dumb, but I didn't know a magnet wouldn't stick to steel! My fridge looks like brushed stainless, but it must be made of something else because I can stick a magnet anywhere.

Looks like you are a big jack russel fan, I have 3 in my house and 6 in total, I love them too, but no fridge magnets.

Very cool. There are good reasons why this breed's nickname is "Canine Einstein." I would not be surprised to learn that Taffi's IQ is higher than mine.

My fave magnet is a large red doghouse with Snoopy snoozing on top. Of course, I am not home and can't post it.

Tonight, my in-laws invited my parents over for dinner. My dad had a very serious lung disease, and is confined to a wheelchair and tethered 24/7 to an O2 tank. Nevertheless, he is busy and in good spirits. I got a big hunk of Gorgonzola and some water crackers - and parked his chair right next to the coffee table.

Yum! We all (well, those of us with taste) enjoyed that cheese! Plus, a little red wine to go with it.

Sorry to hear about your dad, Caroline, but how fortunate he retained his good spirits - that in itself greatly improves quality of life.
