Description from Breezy Chick aka Bree: Just so you all know... I would never do anything to harm a frog... I am an animal lover, don't even eat meat. I was just thinking what to name this pick and asked myself what is red and green and the old frog in the blender joke came to mind. Thought that was a little too gruesome so I went with Squashed Frog. Hope you can all forgive my sense of humor at 1am Australian time after a few wines.
