Sorry, it read like a pitch-type segue. You know, of the "and here's what I use" *shiny product* "but wait there's more!" You could have just said it's a specialty tip - because I kind of read that "tip" as a suggestion, not the utensil. (Which, btw, you can save yourself time, trouble, and expense and just buy tips - and then use sealable bags with the corners cut for the bags)

You guys are always talking about food... *nom nom nom*
I have to hang out here more. If only life weren't so immensely busy right now. Le sigh. Did I miss anything really important?

Yeah I know, but when MrMacologist and I got married we had a very small, quiet affair with only a few people and we never did a reception or anything. Muslim tradition dictates that we need to have some kind of 'do' to tell people "Hey, we're married, here's some food so you don't forget and get weird about it" so we kinda have to do that at some point.
Complicated life is complicated.

Especially with regards to the "get weird about it" part, you really do need to throw one.

Well, whose fault is that?

Thankfully, my family aren't Asian and MrMac's family aren't here, so we should be spared most of the fuss. I hope.

And then I remembered that I typed it up into a pretty little LibreOffice document. Today has been a little tense.
*Waits for teapot to whistle.*

Easy there, TJ. You're among friends here.

I have tea. I have hopefully got the littlest kiddo clothed in a secure enough fashion that he won't rip his diaper off again and the other two are quiet, so hopefully all is good.
Earl Grey reminds me of quiet times.

Obviously make sure the tape is fully on the diaper, because you don't want the adhesive in skin contact. And when you put the duct tape on the diaper, make sure the ends are far enough around the sides to be not easily within reach. Um, unless you have TWO kids willing to help each other, in which case it only slows them down. I am very glad mine have mostly outgrown that stage, because their room was frequently the target of overnight "Poopcasso" wall art.
