Mushy Peas on Toast

“Hook-ups, break-ups, cover-ups. I cause my own chaos,” is almost an adjective for http://mushypeasontoast.blogspot.com . The author, who is only known as Mushypeas, has been blogging since December 2004. This veteran blogger provides the blogosphere with regular pieces of entertainment that has earned her a South African Blog award for the best blogger and was also the second place winner of the ‘great South African Blog Off’ competition.

Background & Content: The content is inspired by the daily happenings in Mushy’s life that provides valuable insight into a world seen from the eyes of what seems to be a truly uproarious individual. Recent posts include “Spidebution” (a play on the words ‘spider’ and ‘retribution’) that details Mushy’s side-splitting battle with spiders: “like a mad woman, aqua-blasting the vermin abode and all the arachnids therein while whooping in hedonistic glee and imagining she’s actually holding a fully-loaded machine gun loaded with spider ammo” and “Dear Peas on Toast” that is seemingly an agony-aunt-like post set to uncover the mysterious questions of “What do women want? And following up on that, b) Can men ever give this to them, and following on from that, c) do they really know what they want?” Individuals who delight in reality TV shows will find the constant posts, specifying every detail in excruciating humor, completely addictive.

Presentation: The layout is undoubtedly user-friendly and first time bloggers will encounter minimal difficulty. The yin-yang as far as layout is concerned, it that while it is incredible that this blog has a regular flow of reader, the enormous conversation threads often leave one felling slightly cross-eyed. The matching pink RSS-feed news bubbles work brilliantly and Muriel the virtual animal adopted by mushy from the Bunny Heroes lab is alive and disturbingly well.

Verdict: http://mushypeasontoast.blogspot.com is worth dedicating a few of your surfing minutes to. Those blog browsers who are disinclined to random perversity will find causal references to four letter words unpleasantly surprising; but those who enjoy such articulation will be tickled pink. Individuals who take pleasure in magazines such as Cosmopolitan and Glamour will revel completely in this blunt, eloquent commentary of life, love and almost everything else. Mushy Peas on Toast, you have my blessing, go forth and blog!
