***PHOTO THAT CAPTION CHALLENGE - JANUARY 2-7***
I hope you all had a very happy New Year's.

Its that time again, so snap away.

Thanks to F Gordon for this one (although he has no idea that I've filched it from him and he might come after me. :evilgrin:)

This is challenge series based on creativity. Everything and anything is okay as long as it is loosely based on the caption and is your own work (and doesn't break any DU rules). Other than that, have fun and get your imagination pumping. Extreme processing is allowed. Feel free to post multiple pictures.

Discussion is heavily encouraged.

1. My mom, the purist/cook, used to hate this
(and sadly I found it in my pantry, but it's really old, 'cause I'm making my own now!):

3. Note the title: things mom wouldn't like! And it was about 99 cents, thank you.
:rofl:
But admire the eye of the picture taker, 'kay? ;-)

4. Oh, I admire. I love it. I was praising it, maybe
it did not translate well to text, but...

14. "Domestic Goddess In A Jar"
I don't know what it is about a kitchen being the test of hembra and a garage being the test of macho.

5. "Why can't I see their faces?"


Hey!! That caption sounds vaguely familiar.

Sorry I haven't kept the smugalugafug updated with this. I need to get you the secret decoder ring so you can just add to it when I'm not around..... which in a few days will be quite often. :-(

... sound of cheering and applause...... I hear

7. Creepy self-portrait
Cindy suggested I call this "Self portrait as a serial killer". My mom would say, "Why don't you smile?"

10. Nicely done.
Black and white is a good choice for that shot.

'Mom channeling' here - so many reasons a mother wouldn't like it.

"Why don't you smile? You really should smile more often. And what happened to that nice electric razor we got you for your 16th birthday? Did it stop working? Check the warranty, son. They're a reputable company and will probably fix it for you. All you have to do is ask. You're not planning on going out in that shirt are you? You'll catch your death. Put on that lovely warm sweater that I spent all last winter knitting for you. Yes, I know one sleeve is longer than the other, just roll it up and nobody will notice... etc, etc..." :)
