Me: "Hey, your stuff there is sliding. There's a little flap you can put up to keep stuff from sliding out the... the..." [I gestured dumbly, fumbling for the technical term] "...stuff from sliding out the baby holes!"There was a pause as she shot me an appalled look and I realized the exact combination of words I had used, before I collapsed into the most helpless, shrieking giggling fit I've experienced in public since the first time I saw a can of this on the shelf at Marsh.

"Baby holes"?????
Oh. Oh my!
You were not the only giggler.
And let's face it -- any trip to Target, or, more so, W@lM@rt, is rife with encounters with that which has slid out....
Holes?
You might want to consult a doctor about that...
FWIW, Spotted Dick, the dish, is quite tasty. I have no knowledge of other forms of SD.

It would seem that abstinence would work in this case, "if you keep some strange spotted dick from slipping in your baby holes, it can't slip out later.....
So the important question to ask in this thread is...
Were there any Walmartian witnesses to said "baby hole" instructions?
Just wait until you stumble upon an entire shelf of Jamaican Cock Soup.
Oh, Tamara. Now you're just bating your readers. :)

Baby Holes and spotted dick.

We built the British Empire on spotted dick, after eating bubble and squeak of course.
I want to be in the state next time Tam's giggle box gets kicked over.
