Whose is this?

Whose Demon Canta Melon Baby Is This?

Sometimes, people get really creative at baby showers. Apparently, the toilet tissue game isn’t innovative enough anymore and the food needs to make a statement. I came upon the picture below, of one of the snacks from someone’s shower and I jumped back and almost threw holy water on my laptop.

Canta Melon baby

Ok THIS is frightening. I mean it. There’s a cantaloupe baby in a watermelon with grape eyes and it is threatening to haunt my hopes and dreams. They were going for cute but this is hella creepy. I’d walk past it and rebuke it at the same time. NOPE.

Then the baby is under an avalanche of melon slices and I am just not ok with it. I posted it on the Awesomely Luvvie Facebook page and let folks have at it. In fact, shoutout to Tiffany, whose comment is what I used to title this post.

“My mom taught me not to waste food, but if I was at a shower with something like that, it would be the one time I would not obey.” – JV

“So clearly we all have missed the garter used as an accent? And I have the sinking feeling the thought process for it was “well it’s been laying around since I went to that Bachelorette party, and I only wore it when we went pole dancing, so it’s all aired out by now. So, you’re eating creepy cantaloupe baby with a side of thigh sweat and pole.” – ET

    Now I have 3 phobias: clowns, swans, & Canta Melon Babies. Who’s your party planner? Are they working under indentured servitude? Are they being held hostage & this is a cry for help? Do they hate you and or the guests attending this shower? This is distressing.

    *slides from side to side in front of laptop* Its grape eyes keep following me.

    Luvvie’s photo looks like the baby is slowly drowning in watermelon juice.

    I rebuke this apocalyptic fruit basket whose eyes will burn sulfuric holes in the trash bag it will be disposed in.

    But why doesn’t it have a nose?

    And the person who brings something like that to MY baby shower is no longer my friend.

    Ms. Patti once said old women give birth to old-looking babies. By extension of that corollary, from what hot, sweaty, tropical orifice did this scary fruit abomination spring? Is this how Punchy, the Hawaiian Punch mascot looked as a baby?

    Why can’t we just have food that looks like the food it is? No I don’t want a cake that looks like a hamburger, a purse, a foot, some fruit, none of that crap. And don’t get me started on the watermelon carvings because that is a waste of that sweet deliciousness. Just because you can doesn’t mean you should. You want to serve me some FRESH fruit, cool, but I ain’t eating your fruit baby. What were they saying at the shower- oh Helen this baby tastes good. That’s wrong on so many levels. Keep that old ass rotten baby at your damn house. Don’t bring that shit out in public.

    But wait… there’s a pan of the exact same watermelon and cantaloupe right beside it. Is that thing just supposed to be decoration? Why in the name of all that is good would you waste perfectly good fruit to make that… that… THAT?

    This is a Luvvie post that should come with a warning. I am so glad that I was not in the ‘quiet car’ of the train going to work this morning. Would have been kicked off.

    This is a Luvvie special – where not only Luvvie’s thoughts are hilarious, but the comments from her posters are OFF THE CHAIN.

    The Rosemary’s Baby line is the first thing that came to mind when I saw that picture. HOW could someone think that was ok to show at a BABY SHOWER.

    If it was a Halloween Party, ok.

    That was creepy as hell.

    Note to self: Don’t try to read Awesomlyluvvie.com and eat your lunch at the same time. I laughed so hard I choked and fell out my chair! I think I saw the light for a minute. Glad to be back.

    I sent a picture of this to a friend who is having a baby shower, asking “When is the baby shower?” She replied saying “NEVER, IF YOU’RE BRINGING THAT!!!!”

    I can’t! I had to stop reading halfway through because I’m silently crying and turning red from withholding my laughter and if my coworkers caught a glimpse of my face, they’d think I was going through something horrible.

    Too much!
