Wendy Jumps On The Bashing Bandwagon:

I could almost hear the violins playing when I read Liselotte's post. Sweet, but not as sweet as MARZIPAN. Lies A Lot,Listerene,Lice Lot, and Lice Latte are not the best names for America's most loved (and wanted) sheep.I think that your sheep should reflect your love for food. MARZIPAN is perfect,just like are ewe is!

Think of all the M food names you could name her offspring: Maraschino(cherry), Mayonnaise, Macaroni, Macadamia, Marshmallow, Matzo, Manicotti, Mascarpone, Malted milk, Mango, Macaroon, Mozzarella, Minestrone, Mostaccioli, Muenster, Muesli, Muffin, Mushroom,etc.

Well I should get going I have so much to do. I have to figure out how to bubble wrap a cupcake:)

And Liselotte Responds:

Wendy... I make the best cupcakes ever... so that's not gonna make it for you... No, I still think she's a unique and special sheep, that deserves a unique and special name. A name only she will be able to brag about in the whole wide State of Missouri.

Sorry, but my cupcakes are better than yours... ;-)

I think maybe I have to make a statement now...My name is Liselotte not lisolette...I've never been called any names beyond my own (until today, that is). Maybe because it's such a beautiful name ;-)I still think that sweet sheep deserves to be enriched with a special, unique, danish and lucky name as Liselotte.I just think she looks exactly like a Liselotte. I really do...PS - she's gonna have her own banner at my site. She's gonna be celebrated and loved every single day of the year. Who wouldn't...

Back To Wendy:

I was not trying to bash OL' LICE A LOT. I was merely trying to point out that her name could easily be mispronounced. She very well could be a fine lady who's grandmother gave her this somewhat pretty Danish name when she first layed eyes on her.

But I have my suspicions about her. The internet provides great anonymity to the user. For all we know, her or his real name is Bubba(notice the B). He most likly came up with the Liselotte name from a Learn To Talk Danish web site. Bubba's blog site is just a ploy.He figures if he waves a cupcake covered banner in front of you, you will cave in. I bet he can't even bake a good cupcake! I have also heard that the correct translation of Liselotte is "DANG HE'S UGLY".

Farmgirl, do not be fooled. I on the other hand am a sheep hugging, food blog loving, one mother of a cupcake baking fool! Being a farmer you know that lice and sheep are never a good thing. Its just plain gross.

When you think of the name I have chosen, it brings all kinds of wonderful thoughts to your mind. MARZIPAN,MARZIPAN,MARZIPAN....make it your mantra. Marzipan is also more in keeping with your other pets names.

Well I have to go now. I have to whip up a batch of double chocolate chunk cupcake batter for OL' LICE A LOT to drown her sorrows in. It's nothing personal Bubba. All's fair in love and sheep wars.

P.S What do think about MARASCHINO for a sheep name? The more I say it,the more I like it.Please enter this name also. Im going with the "dont put all your eggs in one basket" theory.

And Liselotte:

I have to say, that it would mean the world to me, being the proud owner of a sheep. It really would, but the best part ever would be knowing, that in the other end of World there'a a sheep named Liselotte, who wanders about in a nature so beautiful it makes me wonder if it's for real, making time pass with all of her sheepfriends and - never forget him - Dan, who's in next for my love - he's so adorable...

Wendy... you're so totally cool. I almost rest my case but...At this very moment I'm in the middle of making double chocolate chunk cupcakes with hazelnuts and... I will post pictures to proof it later today. Now I have to go get the first 12 out of the oven...

Freshly uploaded, here is my proof - I will not risk Wendys making me look like a liar... :-)

Go take a look!

I'm so totally NOT won over ;-)I'm gonna fight this to the very end.I'm convinced that Yellow 21 would say "Please... Please, let me be named Liselotte" if we could ask her. She's dreaming of being the only sheep in Missouri... well, in the entire United States of America, named Liselotte. I'm totally sure about that and even though it's a foreign name, she will love it, because it will be hers, given to her with love and cupcakes and banners and...

No. I'm not won over. I'm still voting for Liselotte :-)

PS - Wendy - where are your cupcakes? I made 48 today. I also made 36 cheese and bacon muffins and I just started dough for some homemade fresh and delicious bread. Where are yours? Sheeps like this one prefers owners with stamina and will power - I've got loads of that ;-)
