They're 22's

This weekend the kids and I made a mad dash down the interstate to The Empty Nest to visit Nonna and Mommy and Daddy Lipstick. Since Mr. Lipstick had two finals this week and took the ethics part of the bar exam Saturday morning, we have been putting houseshoes on the cat all week. I realized on the way home from work on Thursday evening that we needed to flee Lipstick Manor for the weekend. Oh my goodness, did we ever manage to pack some fun (and many blog-worthy moments) in two days. One thing that I just couldn't resist sharing for some instant fun and giggles is a bit of automotive bewilderment to me. Both to and from The Empty Nest, I saw an innumerable amount of theseand they were all headed to Memphis. Now, I can't even begin to speculate about the origin, appeal, or cost of these rides that have been so clearly pimped in varying degrees, but they certainly were...eye-catching.

Don't you just love Google images too, because look what else I found---Themed Cars! I did not know about this trend save for the Lily Pulitzer Jeepwhich I believe was a corporate venture between them both. I think these other rides-with-a-theme may be a little more renegade. Check out Hip Hop Cars for purchase info (Lily Jeep not included).

Oh my, I had to laugh at this one. Before I even scrolled down in my reader, I thought to myself "psssh, those ghetto fab cars look like they belong in Memphis". I'm from Memphis, and then, I scroll down to see you saw them going here. Hahahahahahaha, you just made my day=)
