Who are Ketchup and French Fry?

Not so long ago or far away, two little darlings were born...(well, technically the first one was born and then the second was born about two years and two months later...but I digress).

My first daughter (aka Eldest or Bella) was born on a cold, blustery day in January of 2002 and my second daughter (aka Little One, Monkey or Pickle) was born on a bright, sunny day in April of 2004. I often wonder if their (sometimes) opposing dispositions are in any way connected to the seasons or weather conditions under which they were born.

Our house is always filled with lots of singing, dancing, drawing and creating...their is no shortage of creativity in our household, that's for certain.

One day, while we were commenting on how Little One likes to put ketchup on just about everything, Eldest suggested that a good name for her would be Ketchup! Little One responded that if her name was Ketchup, then her big sis should be called French Fry - which we all saw as a testament to the fact that since ketchup's greatest complement is French fries that her greatest complement is her big sister; her built in playmate and best friend.

These special nicknames symbolize a shared love between two sisters who get along so well together...well, most of the time anyway ;)

  1. Interesting title "The Adventures of Ketchup & French Fry". I was very curious to find out what that could possibly be about. If the kids are called Ketchup and French Fry what would be your name?

  2. Actually, I have been named Cupcake and my husband is Muffin! I guess we are two things that go together also :)
