Super Sabado: Love is all around—but I’m all square

In honor of the impending Valentine’s Day, today’s Super Sabado is about amor, amour, amore, liebe, ?, ??, and ?. (Don’t you just love the Google Translator?)

But first, a correction: I made a boo boo. Baby Grouchypants is, indeed, a girl, and not a boy. My boy-centric life took over on that one. So sorry!

And some news pertinent to all my Blogspot/Blogger friends out there. Douglas Hoffman successfully switched from Blogger to WordPress. He also (get this) successfully imported his Blogger archives (including comments) into his new home site. All that remains: cataloging his archives. Bad news for Blogger/Blogspot!

Now it’s time to sit down, order some fajitas and margaritas and begin our Super Sabado. Go easy on those chips, will ya?

Kait wins our Super Sabado Extra Dollop of Guacamole for her post, “Romance in the Air.”
