My current fave (and oh, there are so many) is:
Why yes, I do want to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes, thank you very much.
I am so close (and little dude is pushing 17 months)… Gotta get back to my Gillian Michaels and maybe cut out all the bacon and chocolate 🙂
I thought that this headline was a great attention-grabber:
“Why yes, I do want to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes, thank you very much.”

You can heart punch all over my page, any day!
“Wood I like it? Yes I wood” is one of my favorites.
I like “Put a Cork In It.” You guys crack me up!
No ifs, and, just lots of butts
I like “Maternity clothes that won’t cost you an arm and a cankle” because I had huge cankles while I was preggers.
Tiny bubbles end the whine – it’s a favorite one for so many reasons….
The green laundry detergent that impresses the you-know-what out of me.
my favorite headline was “Shampoo made just for pregnant women because when you’re pregnant, yes, the world does revolve around you” couldn’t have said it better 🙂
“The Disney Dream Cruise – is it actually dreamy?” It was a great article!
Favorite more recent headline is definitely “No ifs, and, just lots of butts” from January 14, 2011.
I had a good chuckle at this one when I first read it: Hollywood Renaissance, emphasis on the naissance. Clever, and French! Great combo!
jennifereladd at yahoo dot com
“No ifs, and, but lots of butts” definitely caught my attention when it posted, lol. Also, though not a headline, I loved the post on Q Furniture and the hilarious names assigned to their pieces that was posted months ago.
megancrose at gmail dot com
One of my fave post titles ever:
Friday 14 January
No ifs, and, just lots of butts
“Monkey Bread for Your Little Monkeys” made me smile.
as a currently pregnant woman with cravings, my current favorite title is “cupcakes for grownups.” i only wish that the reality of them were in front of me now.
You guys always crack me up. One of the recent headers that made me laugh out loud was from Valentine’s – “My valentine is one sexy bastard”
Well I looked searched around for a while and my favorite one happens to be from today! Sipidee doo dah! Is pretty darn cute, but now I will probably have that song in my head all day!
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/02/sipidee_doo_dah.php
awesome giveaway! i love cool mom picks & have been reading it since 2007! and entering giveaways regularly for just about that long too ;). i like “sipidee doo da” al though you’re right…although i agree..the headlines are all great!
I loved the Cuteness for a Cause Headline. I have become aware of a number of wonderful charities thanks to your site:
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/01/cuteness_for_a_cause.php
The gift the kids will love to ruin

Oil me up before you go-go
this is just from today but i loved the heading: “sipidee doo dah”! so funny. i loved that movie as a kid.
from Clean as a European Whistle “Bathe my baby in a bucket? makes me laugh every time I see the tub I am pretty sure a great grandma prob did have a bucket bath 🙂
Now Yo Gabba Gabba will have to do an episode on not rubbing it in when your shoes are cooler than everyone else’s
(True that)
You guys are hysterical!
“and then he ate the naughty children. The end.” lololol!! Loved this one! (and thanks for the awesome bday bash giveaways!)
I like the headline: No One Else Will Tell You About Cauliflower Butt
Boy…that is so true!
Why quote Elmo when you can quote Beatrice
No ifs, and, just lots of butts and the Valentine Husband, Sex Bastard one.
Monkey Bread for Your Little Monkeys
Loved this one!
Today’s UV index is holy cow, you’re never leaving the house ever.

It just sounded like my mom!
My valentine is one sexy bastard
hehe
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/01/thats_right_honey_you_cant_win.php
“that’s right honey, you can’t win”
LOVE it!
thanks!
I love how lots of your headlines are funny partly because they’re soooo trueeee…
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/03/tween_cool_hold_the_hoochie.php
“Tween Cool: entirely 100% hoochie free.” Because we all worry about oversexualizing our growing girls.
My son would love the Dog or Owl themed tableware. I just have to get around to buying it!
https://www.skiphop.com/product/zootableware.html
I think my favorite for the moment is:
That’s right, honey, you can’t win!
Monkey Bread for Your Little Monkeys
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/02/celebrate_babys_birth_with_robots.php
The headline brought me in, but the first sentence was my fave “The best post-baby gift I ever received was half of a chocolate cake–which I ate with a spork at midnight in my hospital bed.” Sporks are the greatest utensils ever! And post birth hunger patterns of shoveling anything and everything down your gullet are best served by using a spork.
mielkec@hotmail.com
I too love all your headlines and posts, but I thought under the supergoop headline, your line:
But since I am still skittish about putting anything white and liquidy in my checked baggage after the Great Moisturizer Explosion of ’94
was so funny since I can relate! Not just lotion but with anything shampoo, etc!
“Those Turks definitely know their cotton” who doesn’t love a generalization about someone’s nationality?
Not super clever like so many of your headlines, but I needed this message this day (and went straight to Etsy for the chalkboard). Thanks CMP!
“One day at a time” – Friday, January 21
One of my faves is “Rainbow Bright vs. the Zombies” – cute clothes too!
“Give me some robot love!”
we have a robot obsessed son. obsessed doesn’t even begin to describe his love for robots!
“Maternity wear that doesn’t suck” because a lot of it does! Haha! Thanks for this opportunity!
Poo-Pourri: The $9.95 Marriage Saver
Cracked me up.
I scrolled around anyway since I just started reading the site in late December, but it doesn’t get much better than “Sipidee doo dah”
My valentine is one sexy bastard
cuz mine is too!
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/02/my_valentine_is_one_sexy_basta.php
“A pretty reusable bag for all your gross, smelly, leaky stuff”
hahahahahaha! It *is* a pretty bag and I *always* have stinky stuff :o)
“The grass is always cleaner”
I bought that drying rack and love it!
My favorite headline is “Kids’ rain gear in June, because Mother Nature likes to break the rules.” because that is soooo true where we live.
As a working mom, I really appreciate this headline. “I can bring home the bacon, I can wipe your butt with one hand.”
You guys do so well on this. I was going to pick “No ifs, and, a lot of butts” but I decided to instead go with this one: https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/08/may_the_force_be_with_you.php, headline, “May the Force be with you, and don’t forget your homework.” Really, it was all the Star Wars references crammed into the copy. Like this: “As your little Padawan goes back to school, you’ve got a long list of supplies: Lightsaber, translator droid, nerf sandwich, and a schoolbus that can make the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs.” Good job Grand Moff Delilah!
“Why yes, I do want to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes, thank you very much.”
Because, that is exactly where I’m at right now. I’m in the pre-pregnancy clothes of baby #2… now just have to work a little harder to get into the clothes before baby #1.

Maternity shirts that keep on going and going…I think all moms can relate to this title!
You can be hilarious. I have 3 boys. This one in Jan fit the bill for sure: “No ifs, and, just lots of butts”
For some of us, 30 minute meals take about 20 minutes too long
I feel like this around dinner time every night!
If you’re happy and you know it…or having a tantrum. Either way.
13 Words to add to your child’s bookshelf
My first thought was the list of words banned by the FCC (and then some).
“I Don’t Have a Drinking Problem”
I loved this title for the little cup that holds juice boxes.
Very funny!!!! Also, the Skip Hop bags rule. My kids are far out of diapers but I have one of these bags for when we travel. The patterns are so cute my sister even insisted on having one too.
The headline I liked was “No nasty, icky, rotten, disgusting chemicals” because that’s how I live and want my kids brought up. without any chemicals!
Bathtime
New: Tiny bubbles end the whine
Thought this was super cute…
Preschoolers in the Hood
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2008/07/preschoolers_in_the_hood.php
These are all making us laugh – ah the memories!
https://coolmomtech.com/2011/02/adults_and_lego_kids_and_gps.php
This is the coolest thing. I love legos and so do my kids!!!!
You mean things can go somewhere other than the floor?
I love that!
My favorite? Travel Essentials:: Sipidee doo dah. Ha!
Sipidee doo dah from just this morning was pretty darn clever! I love wordsmithing!
“Why yes, I do want to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes, thank you very much.”

Warning: Reading this book during pregnancy will make you pee yourself. Even more.
A swaddling blanket for the swaddling-impaired. 😀
“The best cupcakes are wrapped in cooties” 🙂
A great headline and great products: “I got schooled by Mrs. Meyers, and now I clean like the dickens.”
I love” I had to say I love you with an Etch-a-Sketch”- the creative things people can do with an Etch a Sketch always amaze me.
A tree grows in Brooklyn. And becomes eco-friendly kids’ furniture.

but I also liked :
Grab a seat on the ice cream cookie. I’ll be right with you.
thanks!
I am always in search of recipes, and I love getting the kids involved in the cooking fun. I loved “A Halloween recipe that’s scary to look at, not to make”
Thanks.
This is a new post but one that REALLY hits home and my baby is not even OUT yet!
“Why yes, I do want to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes, thank you very much.”
gomeggo[at]gmail[dot]com
My fave, Why yes, I do want to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes, thank you very much.
So true 🙂

“The ugliest chocolates you’ll ever love”
I love it!
I love November 27th’s “Cirque du Soleil – now performing in your living room between the tricycle and the house plant.” How did you know I have both a trike and plant in my living room? Thanks for the chance to win the great prize!
Ok… so what if it’s a current one…. I love plays on words, especially songs – https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/02/sipidee_doo_dah.php
🙂
This one’s from a while ago, but I remembered this post because I considered buying my husband one of these prosciutto t-shirts:
“Let’s face it, a man’s first true love is meat.”
No ifs, and, just lots of butts was definitely a favorite
If Your Breastfeeding Boobs Wrote a Book
Because I think mine could, and may be doing so through my Facebook posts lately….
The wooden elephant in the room
Love things made from wood!
“Shampoo made just for pregnant women because when you’re pregnant, yes, the world does revolve around you”
LOVE this one… that’s about how I feel it should be when pregnant.
Faster than a speeding bagel~
The T shirt is adorable and the headline was cute!! Keep them coming cool mom picks!
If you’re happy and you know it…or having a tantrum. Either way.
Is it obvious I’m the mom of an almost 2 year old 🙂
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/10/happy_sad_frame_set.php
“My valentine is one sexy bastard” Is one that caught my eye right away 🙂
Thought this one was so cute! “No ifs, and, just lots of butts”
So many good ones, but two of my favorites are-
“Why settle for a mere octopus, when you can make a Socktopus” and “Maternity clothes that won’t cost you an arm and a cankle”, even though cankles weren’t a laughing matter when I was pregnant!
the gift the kids will love to ruin
too true!!!!
Stop. Hammer time. (a song from my generation)

Know what your school needs? A bar.
I was looking back through the archives trying to remember one involving wine that made me laugh but instead found this one which cracked me up: “TV, now without all that annoying TV”
THIS: “Maternity clothes that won’t cost you an arm and a cankle” We ALL have been there! some more than once!! haha
There’s a bug in my tub!
“Celebrate your baby’s birth with robots.” Because it’s the right thing to do.
I can bring home the bacon, I can wipe your butt with one hand.
It’s amazing the amount of things I can do one handed now that I have a baby! I thought this one was hilarious.
There are so many, right now I like…”no, ifs, ands, just lots of butts.”
“Chunky is in.” Don’t we wish!
My favorite recent one is “sipidee doo dah”. I knew exactly what the post was going to be about by just the title but it still made me open the RSS feed!
“Shampoo made just for pregnant women because when you are pregnant, yes, the world does revolve around you”
“Mod mobiles made just for you… I mean, your baby”
Really highlights the fact that so much baby gear is fun for parents, too!
Working my way backwards, it’s today’s “Sipidee doo dah” primarily because I’ve been saying the original to boost my spirits whenever needed. Having spent time in Germany and Switzerland, it’s gotten quite the look whenever I say it (and the folks don’t get it).
Grab a seat on the ice cream cookie. I’ll be right with you.
“Shampoo made just for pregnant women because when you’re pregnant, yes, the world does revolve around you” I am 6 months pregnant and got the giggles reading that!!!
One of my faves is “I’m Pining for Some Wood.” I thought that was hilarious and I really am in need of jewelry pieces that match just about everything cuz I don’t get much face time with the mirror chasing after my 2 lil’ monsters!
The leg room’s not bad but they don’t serve lunch

As the wife of a pilot (and the mother of a boy child who seems to only airplae related toys, clothes…), this headline caught my eye. It’s catchy and the featured toy was cute as well.
Toothbrush sanitizer and adorable – two phrases not often heard together.
“Chunky is in.” Five weeks postpartum, that makes me feel good.
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/02/chunky_is_in.php
“Those board books start out so cute and shiny, don’t they? And then Baby Bookivore gets very interested in gnawing the corners, splitting the pages…”
SO can relate as my 8 month old has been drooling non-stop since 2 months, just cut her first tooth last night and has been “reading” since she was born – our board books are a mess! LOL 🙂
Thanks – heathermandell@yahoo.com
Love this:
Let It Be a stegosaurus
Thanks and happy birthday!!!
Favorite headline (and a great song): “I want to be the girl with the most cake”
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2008/01/note_ink_hats.php
Cuteness for a cause
This one caught my eye immediately, 2 things I love. It gave great information about great causes!
“Tiny Bubbles End the Whine” was a good one. Always enjoy the headlines, especially puns.
I can bring home the bacon, I can wipe your butt with one hand
“Sipidee do dah” is a fav (among others). Your copywriter’s are so clever!
The book is really good, but I enjoyed Betsy’s tag of No if, and, just lots of butts on Jan. 14. Good laugh to start the morning.
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/01/no_ifs_and_but_lots_of_butts.php

a catcher for me was ”

https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/04/shopping_sex_free_babysitting_psychobaby.php
“When you care enough to lick a stamp” is just one example of the irreverent wit I have come to appreciate! Thanks!

My Valentine is one sexy bastard!! Great eye catcher!
No ifs, and, but lots of butts
all my boys LOVED the book too!
Because my 2 year-old daughter loves the song and we sing it all the time, my favorite recent headline is “Sipidee Doo Dah”
“Chunky is in.” from earlier this month…and not because of the gorg oversized necklace 🙂
No ifs, and, just lots of butts.
{teehee}
With a shirley temple curly headed 3yo I could related “Flowery, beautiful, non-hurty hair accessories” LOVE it!
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/02/flowery_beautiful_non-hurty_hair_accessories.php
Love ‘No ifs, and, just lots of butts’- made me smile 🙂 Thanks!

Love it! Thank you!
No ifs, ands, just lots of butts!
“A gift for kids that doesn’t stink”
(it’s about bath products)
Warning: Reading this book during pregnancy will make you pee yourself. Even more.
Because no one ever compliments you on that cute Ziploc.
annikahays at gmail dot com
“Chunky is in” from Feb 21st, definitely. 🙂
“True Parent Confession: Life is so hectic that I once served crackers to my toddler in one of her own shoes.” I laughed all day at that visual, and it’s so true that we parents have to get creative sometimes! I never pulled the shoe trick, but I did once fill up my son’s bib pockets with goldfish crackers.
There is no need for me to scan the archives. The headline from earlier today caught me by surprise: “Web Coolness – sexy nursing bras, awesome playhouses, and a $20,000 crib.” What an odd combination!
“Tiny bubbles end the whine” for the babo botanicals line. So funny, because it so reflects my bathtime experience with my kids! Thanks for the chance!
“It’s glove season. Which means, lost glove season.” So true.
I liked, An app that makes it okay to pick your nose
Bring prosciutto to your next baby shower
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2009/10/bring_prosciutto_to_your_next.php
“Made you nook” from May. You girls are clever.
I like the “Okay, kid. Here’s that kitten you wanted” headline. Funny stuff.
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/12/heres_that_kitten_you_wanted.php
I love your writing style in general becuase its how I think…just worded better! I like this post because we’ve all wanted to bubble wrap our babes, but that could be considered crazy and not pretty. “Like putting baby in a bubble, but prettier. And less crazy.”
I liked “Baby clothes with magnets = Magnificent!” (I am something of an orthography geek…) 🙂
Wood I like it? Yes I wood…awesome. 🙂
Bathtime
New: Tiny bubbles end the whine

At last, a solution for Flattened Boob Syndrome. (What, you don’t know about Flattened Boob Syndrome?)
I like “No ifs, and, but lots of butts” Made me chuckle. 🙂
I really like the funny ones, esp. if it’s something that made my 3 kiddies laugh – so here’s my fave: “No ifs, ands, just lots of butts”.

Love it – it caught my eye. I love anything Olympics, including crafty stuff!

plus the content was superb!

I am a new(ish) reader, so one of my faves was “Put a cork in it.” Always so fun to read!
I like “Gourmet lollipops ain’t no Dum-Dums.”
I like the “T is for tushie” headline. At least it catches your eye!
This one made me snort my drink. Thanks, ladies!
“Bring prosciutto to your next baby shower”
No ifs, and, just lots of butts — hilarious!
“Cloth toilet paper, I dare you.”
I love a dare! (:
My fave is “No ifs, and, just lots of butts”. It’s such a great book. I bought it because I read your blog about it.
I liked “Our secret stash of airline cookies! Revealed!” on 10/20/10 (https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/10/biscoff_cookies.php). I always did wonder where to buy those cookies, and I still don’t know what makes them so good… maybe I don’t want to know?
I liked, “Now that’s my kind of tea party.”
A recent one that I enjoyed was
“Why yes, I do want to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes, thank you very much.”
Because no one ever compliments you on that cute Ziploc.
Cool-ing Up the Nursery
Plus I love skip hop
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2008/03/cooling_up_the_nursery.php
Gotta be the one for the Let’s Panic About Babies book: “Warning: Reading this book during pregnancy will make you pee yourself. Even more.”
Because no one ever compliments you on that cute Ziploc.
That one made me chuckle.
Cheers!
“Why yes, I do want to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes, thank you very much.”
Because yes…that’s quite the obstacle after my marathon pregnancies that leave me looking like Shrek. I am pregnant with number 3 – after I thought we were done…so here’s hoping I can keep my lbs under tabs – and indeed, fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes someday.
“Monkey Bread for Your Little Monkeys” I refer to all babies in my life as monkeys…so it made me smile.
my favorite is Sipidee doo dah. 🙂
Tiny bubbles end the whine
…I think I’ll be singing this to myself a lot when it’s my turn for babies!
Hi-larious!:
“Back when I was pregnant with my kids (you know, back when dinosaurs roamed the earth), ‘nursing dress’ was synonymous with ‘giant chest flaps on something shapeless and ugly.'”

It’s glove season. Which means, lost glove season.
Baby clothes with magnets = Magnificent!
This cracks me up because I take my boys to Chick-Fil-a all the time & it reminds me of how the cows always have their own little sayings….=) Taking a 4 month old a 2 year old & a nine year old to chick-fil-a is a crazy time haha!! =)
I’m going with –
“Waste not. Want.”
It’s kind of my motto… or at least I WISH it was!!
I would have to say that this title is one of my favorites of many- “I got schooled by Mrs. Meyers, and now I clean like the dickens.”
Witty and fun like so many other posts and titles you guys come up with. 🙂

No ifs, and, just lots of butts (Books for Kids)
tvollowitz at aol dot com
I think my favorite post title so far is “I got your Situation right here, baby.” I’ll shamefully admit I watch Jersey Shore, but a bobble head that tells the world? Ha!
I really like this one:
“I had to say I love you with an Etch-a-Sketch”…it just makes me smile.
This one made me laugh: Need a reason to celebrate? It’s World Nutella Day! I never would have known. Thank you for educating us.
looks like others liked it, too…: No ifs, and, just lots of butts! definitely brought a smile that day…
it has got to be…

Great giveaway!
Because no one ever compliments you on that cute Ziploc. 🙂
It is a tie between
“No ifs, and, just lots of butts” and
“May the Force be with you, and don’t forget your homework”
I love a line from a post about blocks (and how they’re always found in the boys section of mass market stores): my girls love blocks like a frat boy loves spring break (my paraphrase). Mine too! I love all the writing–every day. Thanks!

Seeing as how I’m 29 weeks with my second, my favorite title lately is the section “Maternity wear that doesn’t suck”.
Tiny bubbles end the whine 🙂
“stop. hammer time.” brings be me back to the good ‘ole days.
my fave line by far is this:
aden + anais – AY-den and uh-NAY
Please don’t say AHden. And please please don’t say Anus.

I had to say I love you with an Etch-a-Sketch
I loved etch-a-sketches!!
There are always cute headlines, but I especially liked this one:
“Happy Naked Polka Day. Or, you know, Christmas”
No ifs, and, just lots of butts
LOL, my kids love this kind of book!
No ifs, ands, just lots of butts.
My current fav is “Put a cork in it”
‘No ifs, and, just lots of butts’
No ifs, and, just lots of butts and then this…
and then I also loved this one:
“Bring prosciutto to your next baby shower”
What a way to get the men join!
Some parts will never look the same again without surgical intervention – like tummy wrinkles and those two “rocks in tube socks” — which has now led to “rocks” being the euphemism of choice for what used to be sweetly be called “the girls” (a term which could definitely not fly anymore)!
“…the kind of gift that makes that new mom cry. And don’t be fooled–that’s not as easy to do as you think.”
LOVE it, because we all want to give and receive that kind of gift!
This title caught my attention: Geeky sheets for geeky kids
Very cute!!!
The wooden elephant in the room.
🙂
I get a kick out of this recent one: Celebrate your baby’s birth with robots.
Because…obviously. 🙂
Can’t help thinking of Raising Arizona with this one:
Baby steals – As in amazing deals, not stealing babies
No ifs, and, just lots of butts
My favorite CMP headlines are the takes on song lyrics, even though they usually leave me with that song stuck in my head for the rest of the day. They’re usually 80’s songs, tho, so I don’t mind. “Moop, there it is!” was a great one, and “Put a little love in your (h)ear(t)” was nice, too.
“No ifs, and, just lots of butts” –> nice way to put it 😉
‘Got BOOB?’ -Because what most first-time moms don’t realize is, it’s not your boobs you’re going to worry about concealing–it’s that postpartum gut. Ha!
Read more: https://www.coolmompicks.com/2007/10/got_boob.php#ixzz1F22QPtBg
“Moop, there it is!” I read that and it just put me in a better mood. 🙂
Tiny Bubbles, End the Whine.
Look ma, there’s a monkey in my food!
I love–maternitywear that doesn’t suck. Cause a lot of it does, haha!!
I love this one “Dress up clothing so gorgeous, it will make you twirl too.” because I loved to twirl as a kid and the girls are always twirling.
Rolling with Dante Beatrix… cute 🙂 Thanks, Maureen (jnomaxx at hotmail dot com)
Eat better live healthier: ChopChop
“If you’re happy and you know it…..or having a tantrum. Either way.”…….love it! 🙂
Tiny Bubbles end the whine! Love it….so creative 🙂
My fav is ‘maternitywear that doesn’t suck.” It’s so true. I hated getting maternity clothes because they were so ugly.
Romance is still alive. It’s just hoping the kids don’t wake up and ask for water.
~love love love you gals!!
“Yes, carrots. Yes!” It made me laugh, plus I love the brand.
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/06/yes_carrots_yes.php
All hail the long awaited Bugaboo double stroller! Even if the name is a little…yeah. That

“My Valentine is One Sexy Bastard” There have been many fabulous titles since I’ve been following CMP, but this is a recent one that really made me smile!
My favorite was posted on Friday 14 January,”No ifs, and, just lots of butts!” LOVE it!
Princess and the peas…and carrots…and probably ice cream, too.
My fave is “Why yes, I do want to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes, thank you very much”
Currently working on the 30 day Shred with a goal to finish it in 90 days with my 3 year old and 8 month old watching me!
One of my favs is “Maternity clothes that won’t cost you an arm and a cankle.” Too funny, though it brings back (all too recent) bad memories!
I found this part funny:
“Funny enough, I still do plenty of acting today as a Mom. (Help me clean up, kids. It’s so much fun!)”
So true! lol
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2009/12/just_ducky_luxury_rubber_ducks.php
Just Ducky was so pithy. Also my babies love ducks.
Feeling Glam in L&D. If That’s Even Possible.

One of my favorites is a more recent headline: “Okay, Kid. Here’s that kitten you wanted.” Clever. I think we can all relate to the disappointment of not getting that desperately desired fur baby for Christmas.
“Warning: Reading this book during pregnancy will make you pee yourself. Even more.” LOL!!!
HANDS DOWN best ever:
Well here’s a product that will make you want to throw up
This made so gol-darn goofy when I read it!
I had to say I love you with an Etch-a-Sketch
‘Everything is better with a gorilla’ I can apply this to everything.
“Why yes, I do want to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes, thank you very much.”
I have lots of favorites, but my VERY favorite is the recent Sipidee doo dah. TOO funny!
Lately, my daughter is looking pretty sheepdoggy- =)
The ugliest chocolates you’ll ever love.
“Maternitywear that doesn’t suck” because we all know it does and if it doesn’t, it’s expensive..
I love “Why yes, I do want to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes, thank you very much.” and bought the DVDs right away, but since it’s been mentioned a few times, I also love “Ubisoft Just Dance 2 – they could call it Just Embarrass Yourself 2. And we’d still love it.”
“So let’s talk jeggings”.
I did way more than talk about them, my daughter wore them all fall and winter in every color i could find, very practical for a toddler.
Sipidee doo dah. Very cute:)
I was poking around and came across this:
The best cupcakes are wrapped in cooties= LOVE!

No ifs, and, just lots of butts.
Ha!
Reminds me of another blog I was reading where a kid was talking about how people had two arms, two legs, one nose, and two pieces of butt!
I love your book recommendations so my favorite post title is “No ifs, and, just lots of butts”
I like the recent “Sipidee doo dah”
This one! Because let’s be honest…we’ve all been there!
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/02/lets_panic_about_babies_book.php
“Made you Nook”
I love your word play on your titles, like “Calling dibs on affordable bibs” They make me happy!
Tiny bubbles end the whine – brilliant!

No ifs, and, just lots of butts…
Mary Poppins, eat your heart out
“I can bring home the bacon, I can wipe your butt with one hand”
classic….
Know what we’re thankful for? Our subscribers.

THANK YOU! We’re thankful for your research and ideas- you make us ALL look good 😉
How much more fun and honest can it get than
Candy and Boogers, a great combo for the kids — and a great cd, too.
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2009/01/candy_band_the_boogers.php
I giggled at “No ifs, and, just lots of butts”: https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/01/no_ifs_and_but_lots_of_butts.php
“Mary Poppins, eat your heart out”
I thought that one was super cute 🙂
Goodbye, dry skin. Hello… cookies?
This one was intriuging!
“Sponge Worthy” need I say more?
Okay, kid. Here’s that kitten you wanted.
So what if it’s just soap 🙂 Cute gift and funny headline that I can totally relate to as a child. (Oh, you wanted a REAL puppy!? We thought this stuffed animal would do!)
I really liked this one:
“My kid, cleaning? Wanna bet?”
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/06/my_kid_cleaning_wanna_bet.php
You are always so creative. Here’s a good one:
“This season’s forecast: circus animals and a good chance of peacocks”
“For some of us 30 minute meals take about 20 minutes too long.”
It’s funny, because it’s true! 🙂
Love the hunter rain boots!

“Last-minute Father’s Day cards that are worthy of the World’s Greatest Dad” – a posting I really needed!
I know that you couldn’t have actually named your website this, but I love that it originated as “cool mom sh*t” Does it count even though it’s NOT the title of your website:)
I loved
Warning: Reading this book during pregnancy will make you pee yourself. Even more.
totally have to get this book for my sister who just found out she’s pregnant. 🙂
“There are no small parts, only small children who are super cute playing Cinderella.”
My favorite CMP headlines are the takes on song lyrics, even though they usually leave me with that song stuck in my head for the rest of the day. They’re usually 80’s songs, tho, so I don’t mind. “Moop, there it is!” was a great one, and “Put a little love in your (h)ear(t)” was nice, too.
“Yes, that’s the pathetic justification of the shoe-a-holic.”

Tiny Bubbles End the Whine! Love it!
Honestly, I love when you introduced Cool Moms Tech Picks and when you started emailing the top 5.
The headline for the Yes To Carrots post on 21 November drew me in: “Yes, I would like to look 6 years younger. Thank you.”
Everything is better with a Gorilla.
Words to live by, people.
Warning: Reading this book during pregnancy will make you pee yourself. Even more.
Tiny bubbles end the whine.
That’s a good one ladies!!!
This is Brilliant! I loved this post about “green play food”
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/01/time_to_pull_a_jamie_oliver_on.php
“Shampoo made just for pregnant women because when you’re pregnant, yes, the world does revolve around you”
Gurrrrrrrl, you better believe it!
Mmmm-Hmmm, thaswhat I’m talkin’ bout!
Writing is one of this site’s biggest strengths.
I decided to go with this one: https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/08/may_the_force_be_with_you.php, headline, “May the Force be with you, and don’t forget your homework.” Really, it was all the Star Wars references crammed into the copy. Like this: “As your little Padawan goes back to school, you’ve got a long list of supplies: Lightsaber, translator droid, nerf sandwich, and a schoolbus that can make the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs.” Good job Grand Moff Delilah!
Another favorite: I can bring home the bacon, I can wipe your butt with one hand.

“Yes, I would like to look 6 years younger. Thank you.”
I am all over Yes to Carrots (actually it is all over me) since this baby making me breakout like a teenager. But I took notice because of the funny headlines!
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/11/yes_to_tomatoes.php
“Tween cool, entirely 100% hoochie free”- Funny!!
I liked this one
“Bring prosciutto to your next baby shower”
because I was pregnant and so tired of all the things I couldn’t eat!
One of my favorite quotes is: “The Maclaren 2011 preview – Stroller junkies, take note!” because I am that stroller/baby gear junkie!

Put Some Funk in Your Junk

I want to say right now that you gals are GREAT writers. I wouldn’t think sharing about kids products could be this funny, snarky, and deliciously written! Your posts are great to read and your facebook one-liners always pique my curiosity!

A recent one but hard to compete with is “Sipadee Doo Dah!” Love it!
Too be honest, I really liked one of your recent ones–Go Ahead. Make My Cookies. It actually stuck out very clearly in my mind. A) I love cookies. B) The app is really cool, and I can’t wait to get an ipad to use it, and C) it’s just cute and cheesy and I love cute and cheesy 🙂

One of my favorite headlines is “The Paranoid Parents Guide – Perfect beach reading for those of us afraid of shark attacks”. Sometimes we all tend to be a little psychotic when it comes to our kids and this title just about sums it up for me.
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/02/sipidee_doo_dah.php
recent, but made me laugh the moment i saw it!
“No ifs, and, just lots of butts” from January 14, 11″ Love it!!!
I like this post title: “Geek may be a four letter word, but then, so is cool.”
I like this headline: The peas are touching my carrots! I can really relate even at my age!
“Like putting baby in a bubble, but prettier. And less crazy.”
I love your writing style in general becuase its how I think…just worded better! I like this post because we’ve all wanted to bubble wrap our babes, but that could be considered crazy and not pretty.
My recent favorite is “Sipidee doo dah,” although it may be my least favorite, because it got the song stuck in my head. But it made me giggle.
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/11/a_to_z_animal_poster.php
“I (Lovebirds-Ostrich-Vicuna-Elephant) this print”
A necessary book for first-time parents, or at least in retrospect, you realize how funny/tiring it can be!
“Warning: Reading this book during pregnancy will make you pee yourself. Even more.”
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/02/lets_panic_about_babies_book.php
I agree with another reader on this one.
“For some of us, 30 minute meals take about 20 minutes too long.”
So true.
“May the Force Be with You and Don’t Forget Your Homework”! Got to love the Star Wars references and such cute shoes!
Completely and totally the line about serving toddler crackers out of her own shoe!
Flour Power! i love to bake sweets and savory 🙂
From Monday, March 30, 2009:
“Full of “Yo Ho Ho” but no bottle of rum”

I just had my second child and I’m so glad I don’t have to worry about that part of pregnancy any more. And the book looks great!

Here’s one of my faves:
“Behold the mysterious STEPONBOX”
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/07/behold_the_mysterious_steponbo.php
The whole post was great, but particularly these lines: This cool product from the UK is so new that we can’t even tell you where to buy it yet. In the words of Douglas Adams, it’s so hip it can’t see over its own pelvis.
“Where can you get it? We don’t know! How much does it cost? Not a clue!
But is so awesome we wanted to tell you about it? Heck, yeah. ~Delilah”
Cupcakes just for grownups
And I don’t have to share?!! I can’t wait! But of course, they taste so much better when we share with our little ones. The smile on their face as they lick the frosting off their lips…priceless!! Although, I’ll put one away to enjoy for later!!
LOVED…Monkey Bread for Your Little Monkeys
These days, I’m lucky if I remember to get gifts in time at all, let alone have the wrapping paper on hand to wrap it up …is my favorite line I have read so far. That is me to a “t”. https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/02/wrap_your_gift_in_artwork.php
“The princess and the peas. And carrots. Probably ice cream too.”
I lol’d at this…it is totally a meal that I could see myself making!
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/05/the_princess_and_the_peas_and.php
“More snow predicted. Retail therapy needed!” I love that headline and it has been very fitting this year. 🙂
I’m a big fan of snark, and CMP delivers it! One of my favs is “That’s right honey, you can’t win” from this post: https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/01/thats_right_honey_you_cant_win.php
Hilarious! (And possibly true in my house.)
No ifs, and, just lots of butts!
Your titles are so clever!
A Gift for Kids that Doesn’t Stink:
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/12/finally_a_useful_gift_that_doe.php
“I can bring home the bacon, I can wipe your butt with one hand.”
The post on cloth toilet paper had me in stiches. My favorite line: “But, eager beaver (pun too good to resist) that I am, I agreed to test them out.” I laughed so loud that my husband was prompted to ask about what I found so funny. Then I told him. And he thought I was crazy.
You can even eat the dishes (b/c my son sometimes acts like he will be eating the dishes)
this still gives me a chuckle:
“But then I realized that we were talking about cloth wipes. For women. And I did a double take.”
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/09/cloth_toilet_paper_i_dare_you.php#ixzz1FBjcgdmy

Monkey Bread for Your Little Monkeys is cute
As for me, I’ll be baking sugar cookie ninjas, icing them, and having old school Mortal Kombat battles in which I’ll eat the losers. Fatality!~Delilah
This inspired me to buy those ninja cookie sets for a friend of mine w/ boys. Love the Mortal Kombat reference!
“Cool art for a great cause. Besides the cause of your blank walls.” Awesome. =)
I just had to laugh at: “Gourmet lollipops ain’t no Dum-Dums.” I wish I could come up with humor like that. Too cute 🙂
Thanks!
My favorite mom purchases are Pedipeds, See Kai Runs and Morgan & Milo shoes. Love them for the girls, and they are super durable!
The writing on this site is fantastic!
If I have to pick one, I pick: https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/08/may_the_force_be_with_you.php, headline, “May the Force be with you, and don’t forget your homework.” Really, it was all the Star Wars references crammed into the copy. Like this: “As your little Padawan goes back to school, you’ve got a long list of supplies: Lightsaber, translator droid, nerf sandwich, and a schoolbus that can make the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs.” Good job Grand Moff Delilah!
Martha Stewart: Now encouraging spider webs
There may be hope for my house after all!
“sorry my kids a jerk, can we come over again tomorrow” This was priceless and I knew the feeling well that the product should exist somewhere in the great wide world of things every mother needs on hand.
You’ll Listen to This Even When Your Kids Aren’t in the Car, Man. (It’s funny because it’s true!)
Duct tape goes designer, and metrosexuals everywhere rejoice
My husband is that metrosexual who is rejoicing.

I really got a kick out of “No ifs, and, just lots of butts” …very funny!

“Warning: Reading this book during pregnancy will make you pee yourself. Even more.”
Reading this headline made me pee just a bit…& I’m not even pregnant 😀
Since you said I could enter again, here’s another entry… I liked “Our secret stash of airline cookies! Revealed!” on 10/20/10 (https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/10/biscoff_cookies.php). I always did wonder where to buy those cookies, and I still don’t know what makes them so good… maybe I don’t want to know?

clever play on the name!
“Why yes, I do want to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes, thank you very much.”
It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that bling
Again, “Made you nook” from May.
‘The handbags that make me go all slack-jawed and tingly inside’ – so funny! And of course struck a chord with me as I’m a huge handbag person. Thanks for making me laugh (with this post and lots of others!) Here’s the link: https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/12/hayden_harnett_handbags.php
“For some reason, the combination of the right height plus holes you can poke your fingers into equals a good time. Whee!”
Love it. It is my world.
“Socks to be you” LOL that’s one of my favs and I love these socks! So cute. You guys do a great job coming up with titles for your posts, I love it! Keep up the good and “cool” work!

“A pretty reusable bag for all your gross, smelly, leaky stuff”… I never thought I would need a bag like that until I had kids.

A shout-out to the liger of the babywearing world
here’s another great one:
‘Even burly babies love Smoochie.’
i am laughing at the idea of a burly baby.
thanks for the giveaways!
I love If you’re happy and you know it…or having a tantrum. Either way. The picks of my kids crying, sleeping or making funny faces are far better than the posed smiley faces! https://www.coolmompicks.com/2010/10/happy_sad_frame_set.php

Once again, a post topic I like because it speaks to the irony-lover in me: “A stylish baby gate. I kid you not.”

https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/02/i_love_you_etch-a-sketch_shirt.php i thought the “I had to say I love you with an etch a sketch” was cute with the etch a sketch shirt
I just looked up Sandbox Threads as a company I discovered here, and the headline for that post is a good one: “Oh, so that’s what little girls and boys are really made of.”
“You can even eat the dishes” from Jan. 15 certainly caught my attention!

My favorite is ‘Why yes, I do want to fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes, thank you very much” — totally feel you on that one!
Celebrate National Bacon Day with…lollipops?
Now that I have a son, I like to go back through all the boy stuff. I remember reading them when I just had a girl, but now they mean so much more to me that I have a son. It’s funny how when I had my daughter I did think all the boy stuff was boring, but now I think that my 8 week old looks like a little man. It’s so cute. Anyway favorite headline is Lumberjack shirt 2.0. I also love love love the shirt!
“Sipidee doo dah”. Maybe a new line, but already a classic!
One of my favorite was “Put yo baby on yo hip”! This just made me laugh!
“The ugliest chocolates you’ll ever love” – that totally made me want to click the link, though i have to say…they really weren’t *that* ugly 🙂
“Hollywood Renaissance, emphasis on the naissance”
My favorite CMP headlines are the takes on song lyrics, even though they usually leave me with that song stuck in my head for the rest of the day. They’re usually 80’s songs, tho, so I don’t mind. “Moop, there it is!” was a great one, and “Put a little love in your (h)ear(t)” was nice, too.
One of my many favorites….
Wanting to Put Your Baby In a Bubble Never Made More Sense
Plus, I have the bubble which you recommended and I love it.

No ifs, and, just lots of butts
https://www.coolmompicks.com/2011/02/sipidee_doo_dah.php
really? What beats sipidee doo da?
OK, I know this was just the other day but it made me chuckle: Sipidee doo dah
As a working mom, I appreciate this headline. “I can bring home the bacon, I can wipe your butt with one hand.”
“No ifs, and, just lots of butts”
That one caught my eye 🙂
Your headline from 1/14/11 cracked me up: “No ifs, and, just lots of butts.”
Sipidee doo dah
witty!
That’s right honey, you can’t win
Maybe this is more wishful thinking than anything…(seeing how I am very pregnant)

“maybe it’s the fact that we no longer have babies who are going to be spewing liquids all over our bed. (Or so we hope.)” Spewing?!?! Ha! Can’t wait for that day!

I love the new Uglypillows from Uglydoll. Perhaps it brings out the motherly instinct in me? A face that only a mother could love?

One post title that definitely made me laugh… “Well here’s a product that will make you want to throw up” – for the Morning Chickness Bags
Ok..this is cheating a little…but I did enjoy todays ‘We Like you so we want to put some bling on it’. that was a good one!
