Fish says

GENIUS!!

So once upon a time, two girls were in the kitchen making cookies and debating about their shenanigans since moving into the apts at Union Square! And then one ventured the idea of blogging!

The original blog idea started one night whilst sitting at Finnegan’s, enjoying THE BEST hash browns EVER! SERIOUSLY BEST hash browns EVER! They were declared amazing and a blog HAD to be created (I feel like I should mention that the night at Finnegan’s was prolly like six weeks ago! LOL!)

And thus, the Fish-Chips-Salsa blog was born at 6:35pm on October 27, 2009! Our name you ask? Well it was a process to get there. We dubbed the blog Chips…as an Ode to the feline in residence, Buttercup! And it was actually the first word that popped into my head when asked what should our name be.

And our names? Well that all began when Nicole decided she wanted a gangsta name! LOL! So she googled, “Nicole gangster name generator!” The results were as follows!

Gangster Name Generator yielded these results:
Nicole Brandt=Pants….”WTF? I don’t wanna be pants….that’s lame!”
Jessica Hugg=Frankenberry…..”Yours is SO cool!”
Nicole=The Mangler…”Ooh scary!”
Roxie=Cock……LOL!!
Rochelle=Two Fists…..No comment needed here!

Ferry Name Generator yielded:
Nicole=Honeysuckle Little Nightingale

Pirate Name Generator yielded:
Roxie=Smilin’ Evelen Scab

Man Name Generator yielded:
Nicole=Joe?! WTF?!

Fluffy Kitten Name Generator yielded:
Girl Kitty, Nicole=Nightmare Periwinkle

After much laughter about the possibilities I suggest Fish-Chips-Salsa! AKA: Fish & Chips, Chips & Salsa! Kinda like the before and after thing on Wheel of Fortune!

Stay tuned for Word of the Week and more!

A new blog is like a clean slate. This blog first began while eating fabulous hashbrowns when I thought that I should blog about the best places I've been to eat. So its fitting that when we finally got around to creating the blog it be called Chips, regardless of the fact that this is a nickname for the cat (and yes cats can have nicknames too, you'd want a nickname too if you were a cat name Princess Buttercup, it can be quite a mouthful to explain).

Then the next step is coming up with a good blogging name. Name generators seemed to not help creating silly names like 'Pants', 'Smilin Evalyn Scabbs', 'nightmare periwinkle' and 'two fists'. None of those seemed to fit me well enough. So my counterpart decided to make our name based on food. Fish and Chips are yummy and Chips and Salsa are quite delicious. Therefore fish-chips-salsa was created. So fry up some fish, get some fresh salsa, and of course a bag of chips and enjoy a nice meal.
