I am still here...really.

Last month, my little granddaugther Emerson,  lost her piggy.  See here.  It was very traumatic  ---for her parents as well as her.  After many a new pig sent by relatives and friends,  Emmy  had found her new Piggy and she loves her!!

Here is a picture of "new" Piggy....




Chosen from many a new stuffed pig...A hippo. Named Piggy.

When was the last time you looked at the toy aisle of  Walmart or any other retail store?   It's like a creep show....you walk by and things come alive and start crying, whining, laughing.... creepy, I tell ya.



Everything is motion activated now!  Fun sounds and Giggle and Shake, were two among many.  It was like being in the "fun house" at the carnival.

Not to mention these guys....



....I had never heard of monster high.  I need to keep up on these things, I guess.

Tomorrow, I'll be back with a food post.

I'm glad to see she found a new piggy! My son lost his lovey one time and it was quite traumatic. After hunting high and low for it and finally buying a replacement, I found the old one in the microwave. This was back in the day when microwaves were huge and set on the counter.

I was just thinking of you last night wondering if I'd missed a post.

Don't love the monster high dolls. Can you picture a few of those lined up on a child's bed? Yikes!

Monster High? I've never heard of those either and I walk through the carnival fun house that is the WalMart toy aisle all the time! Who would buy a Monster High doll for their kid? Someone who wants to freak them out forever?
