Saying Good-bye to How I Met Your Mother #HIMYMFarewell

by

Today I’m over at Sulia’s Romance Chanel, where I blog five days each week, saying good-bye to the long-running sitcom, How I Met Your Mother. 

I’m a late-comer to the show. I only started watching it a few years ago. Thanks to syndication I was able to catch up pretty quickly and it soon became my favorite sitcom.

There are so many episodes of the show that make me break out into laughter when I think about them:

The Pineapple Incident

How I Met Your Mother -- The Pineapple Incident Episode
After a crazy night of drinking, Ted wakes up the next morning with a sprained ankle, a burned jacket, a phone number written on his arm, a pineapple on his dresser, and a mystery woman in his bed. The gang tries to help Ted piece together exactly what happened the night before.

How I Met Everyone Else
