Well here's another udderly good idea. Those bags are a little difficult to carry. If we could get Playtex to put two large cups together with a carrying strap, we could carry a gallon of milk in a...oh, let's not go there.

Considering that what goes in such holders has a specific biologic function and are commonly referred to as "fun bags," then the "milk bag" is almost a synonym. :D

Um... did I just type that out loud?

Ya might know I finally come up with a KG worthy pun and I spelled the darn thing wrong! I tell ya this swine flu has definitely taken some brain cells for a spin!

I don't know KG, Playtex may TEAT-er toward this idea!

Go fix it and I'll delete the quote. ;) Besides, I don't believe that teatering was the breast pun you could squirt out.

Have you ever taken a milk bath?I heard that a woman went to Kwik Trip and loaded up on bags and bags of milk. The manager of the dairy department asked why she was buying so much milk?She said, "I understand that milk baths keeps skin supple and keeps you looking young."The manager said, "Since you're bathing in it, do you want the milk pasteurized?""No," she replied, "Up to my neck should be fine."
 
We are all up to our necks in something on this thread, that's for sure. LOL
