Official Song of the Pineapples

Pineapple Princess

"Pineapple Princess," he calls me, "Pineapple Princess," all day
As he plays his ukulele on the hill above the bay.
"Pineapple Princess, I love you, you're the sweetest girl I've seen.
Some day we're gonna marry and you'll be my Pineapple Queen."

I saw a boy on Oahu isle
Floatin' down the bay on a crocodile.
He waved at me and he swam ashore
And I knew he'd be mine forevermore.

"Pineapple Princess," he calls me, "Pineapple Princess," all day
As he plays his ukulele on the hill above the bay.
"Pineapple Princess, I love you, you're the sweetest girl I've seen.
Some day we're gonna marry and you'll be my Pineapple Queen."

He sings his song from banana trees
He even sings to me on his water skis.
We went skin-divin' and beneath the blue
He sang and played his ukulele, too.

"Pineapple Princess, I love you, you're the sweetest girl I've seen.
Some day we're gonna marry and you'll be my Pineapple Queen."

We'll settle down in a bamboo hut
And he will be my own little coconut.
Then we'll be beachcombin' royalty
On wicky-wicky wacky Waikiki.

"Pineapple Princess," he calls me, "Pineapple Princess," all day
As he plays his ukulele on the hill above the bay.
"Pineapple Princess, I love you, you're the sweetest girl I've seen.
Some day we're gonna marry and you'll be my Pineapple Queen."

Splish Splash

I took a little bath.

I peed all over everything at Target today.

Food

I like to eat my food off my bib.
It's better than a spoon.

Blah

I do not feel good today. I need to take a nap.
Tylenol.. take me away.

Zia's Rap

Zia is my name and
laughing is my game
I laugh all the time
When my mama sings her rhymes.

Word.

Today

Change is here.
I needed it.

Notice

Rice Cereal is NOT like Rice Krispies.

Max

My buddy Max came over today.
Mommy made French Toast.
Max played with my blocks.
Max can stand up. I find that to be intimidating, yet intriguing.

Bathroom

I love the bathroom at Red Robin.
They play good music and they have a TV to watch.
The toilet flushing makes me freak out though.

Zia's Song of the Day

Born To Be Wild -- Steppenwolf

Mommy is very funny when she sings it to me.

Today

Grammie says I can move flip myself around in my crib. Weird.
I am very good at finding my own feet. Weird.
I get very fussy when I don't take a nap. Weird.

Scandal - Update

Intelligence reports have cleared Grammie of any wrong doing in the Kroger Pineapple scandal. Her Honorary Pineapple status is not in danger.

However, since Grammie is from Illinois where corruption runs rampant, the Pineapples will keep an eye on her for any future impropriety.

Music Class

I went to music class tonight. It was fun!
There was a guitar and babies that could crawl.
I want to do that someday.

Scandal Rocks Pineapple Nation

The following photo was recently taken in the cupboard of Honorary Pineapple, Grammie. It seems that Grammie is somehow involved with known Pineapple enemy, Kroger.

A hearing to determine Grammie's future as a Honorary Pineapple will be held when the Pineapples wake from their slumber in late March.

No further comment.

New Year's Resolution

I made a New Year's Resolution to get up early every morning.
It's working out great!

Zia's Auto Tip #324

If you get a code P0446 on your old Tahoe, here's what you can do to fix it. This is pretty common. (This also could apply to old Yukons, Escalades, some Sierras and Silverados)

An intermittent condition could be caused by a damaged evaporative emission (EVAP) vent housing, a temporary blockage at the EVAP vent solenoid inlet, or a pinched vent hose. A blockage in the vent system will also cause a poor fuel fill problem.

An EVAP canister, vent hose, or vent solenoid valve that has restricted flow may cause this DTC to set. Using purge solenoid valve command with a scan tool will allow vacuum to be applied to the system instead of pressure. With the EVAP canister vent solenoid valve open and the EVAP canister purge solenoid valve commanded to 100 percent , vacuum should not increase to more than 9 inches H2O.

Pineapple Request

Dear Blog Readers -
The Pineapples will be collecting your unused Candy Canes this year. We place them around the area as they make wonderful pest repellents.

Your help is appreciated.

Sincerely,
Pineapple Princess Zia

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Everyone!

I'm blogging from Grammie's 'cause our Internet is out at home. I hope it is fixed soon!

I'm going to Noodles tomorrow. It is my favorite.
