Do these plans involve big vats of Nutella?

Yes.  Rob is renting a limo with a pool, and we are filling it with Nutella.  Then Nathan Fillion and the Old Spice Guy will join me and we can goof off and paint silly things on each other's faces with Nutella, and Nathan and I can talk about nerdy stuff, and the Old Spice Guy can read the phone book, and the phone book will turn into diamonds, and then I will wake up.

That sounds unsanitary...and sticky.

I think we actually did buy a small jar of Nutella a couple weeks ago. And Fluff.

I saw a commercial for Nutella a couple weeks ago.  That was the first time I'd ever heard of it aside from this forum.

I only ever heard of it once I moved to New England. I still haven't tried it, and the Nutella/Fluff sandwich sounds kinda gross to me.

I've never had it either.  It sounds like it would be good on icecream.

Nutella pools are breeding grounds for bacteria.

Nah.  Nutella is shelf stable even after opening.  Osmotic content is too high w/all that sugar to grow much.  My subspecialty is Infectious Diseases and that pool wouldn't worry me a bit ::) ;D

Stuff will be stable at least for an 8 hour car ride.  Can I throw in Craig Ferguson and Kevin McKidd?  At least Craig is getting more toward my age range...don't want to be accused of being a cradle robber!  :o

I'm going to Costco and picking up a mega-size Nutella.  If Pris doesn't need it for the pool, then I'll just put it on the table at dinner and run away quick!
