On Saturday night, our family attended a dinner party in honor of our niece’s college graduation. It was an elegant little affair, complete with great conversation, an around the world beer tour and some delicious food.
The home of our hosts was amazingly decorated and resembled an English manor. It was a sprawling abode, sitting on a golf course and even had a pond out back with swans swimming about. Thank goodness I took my fake Coach handbag and wore my best Target jacket!
After a few Coronas, Amstel Lights and Red Stripes I still managed to be on my best behavior. But, on the way home I decided to let my real riff-raff self come out and said, “That sure was a nice party. Their house was unbelievable and the food was da’ bomb diggity.”
Then my son, who was all pumped up on mini-cheesecake and juice boxes, piped up from the back seat and said, “Nuh-uh! The food was really good!”

My oldest had a birthday at a house that sounds quite similar. Could have swam laps in their bathtub.

Fake Coach bag & best Target jacket. Priceless. Well, not that, your son, he is priceless. But you knew that. ~Mary

And wow, I have never seen that word spelled out before … “Nuh-uh” – love it.

I don’t get it…what’s wrong with the “da bomb diggity”? Maybe THAT’s why I don’t get invited to too many formal affairs. Hmph.
