Baby, Fix That... Hold Up.

Check it out, McSweeneys has two new books coming out for the holidays:

In this bundle you'll receive Baby, Make Me Breakfast, an instructional book which shows infants how to concoct a simple breakfast, and Baby, Mix Me a Drink, which instructs your little one how to mix a variety of basic cocktails. Through basic shapes and colors, these two board books teach your precious little angels to be useful, at long last.

We'll also throw in a couple of Baby Be of Use coasters, which can be placed under drinks, or breakfasts, or babies, to prevent unnecessary table damage.
FYI, Lisa Brown, the author of these books, is married to Daniel Handler, who some of you may know better as Lemony Snicket.

I bought two of these packets last week - one for us, and one for a pregnant friend. Our 20-month-old Ellie can count to ten, and apparently knows more about American football than most of your group (when a game is on, she says "Football!" and "Run run run!", and we're working on fumble recovery drills), but her bartending skills are pedestrian at best. She also likes eggs, which is half the battle vis a vis breakfast.
