So yesterday I was reading everything I could get my hands on to pass the time. Tick Tock. Tick Tock.
By 4:00 pm I was down to the free magazine sent to us by the local electrical cooperative (bet you didn't know there was such a thing) - anyway, there is. And they send out a magazine featuring profiles of local people and a "You Know You Live in the South When" segment where people can mail in their redneck quotes. On the back page is a recipe page, where readers can send in their recipes to be published.
In desperation, I was reading the notes at the bottom of the recipe page, when I came across this exact quote:

"The January 2010 recipe for Crock Pot Angel Chicken included two typographical errors. Use one 8-ounce tub of cream chese with chives and onions (not 8 tubs) and a 0.7-ounce envelope of dry Italian salad dressing (not a 10.7 ounce envelope)"
What the heck? Did Ms. MoneyPenny leave her reading glasses at home that day????
*Best picture I could find; does it not look like a dead fish plopped over some spags?

Don't you have internet connection at work?
Thats hysterical. I wonder how many used the old recipe and wrote in "I can't fit 8 tubs in my crockpot"
Thanks I needed that.
8 tubs???? That's hilarious... I probably would be the one who wouldnt think anything of it & give it a try...
Hee hee... Definitely a quality publication there! :D
wow, that looks completely disgusting! I also probably would have tried the 8 tubs... multiple times...
that looks just way beyond disgusting!
have a great wkend!!!
Wow. I wonder if anyone actually tried to make it the way it was printed. That would be interesting...
Yuck. Too funny.
I am so jeoulous you can read at work.
I have a whole library of books----what'dya want to read next? John Steinbeck? Cormac McCarthy?
And---ewwwwww---my appetite for lunch just went buh-bye!!!
haha I would laugh harder but this is totally something I would do. Not that i even have before, but you know. :)
HAHAHAHA! That is HILAR!
And for the record, that pic looks like something I would NOT like to eat! ICCCKY
Ummmmm, not so much appetizing!
I'm not a cook... I would have followed the directions... Yeah, dinner is usually pretty tasty around here when I'm cooking (not!)
Oh that was a bit funny. Yes I did know about electric co-ops as we used to pay into one.
LOL It does look like a dead fish! I thought it looked tasty until I read that part!
How funny!
Wow, 8 tubs?? Lol!
I wonder how many people actually made it with 8 tubs?
Oh. My. Goodness. I SOOOOO would have used EIGHT TUBS!!
lol too funny!

Ummmm, okay then..lol
OK, I just laughed out loud! Glad I wasn't drinking milk, or it would have squirted out through my nose. I came upon a recipe one day for an apple pie that featured 1/2 cup of cinammon. Well, I had a brain fart, and followed the recipe. Guess what? WAY too much cinammon!
Hahahahaha! This entire post made my night! I love it!
LOL
