Raising Monsters

Meet “Frankie-Stein”, Frankenstein’s teenage daughter and the latest must-have doll in the family. I don’t have much to say about this. Just, wow.  She’s green and her limbs are detachable at all the joints.

I said No to the “street walker” werewolf…

and No to  ”Draculaura”

Because we don’t need to be scaring all your friends at show and tell, and what would the teachers think? I did however agree to  Frankenstein’s teenage daughter because even though she too looks like a monster-“street walker”, she is on her way to the beach and she’s in her bathing suit so that makes it ok, I guess. geez. Never knew that I would be having to deal with this kind of issue so soon. Mom’s of girls, never take  Tinkerbell for granted, she’s a little of a brat but we love her. Dear Mattel, can we please get some appropriately dressed monster dolls on the market so our daughters don’t want to dress like this?! 

Re-think Trash

the other day i ran out of garbage bags but i had 800 plastic grocery bags stashed so i decided to use them instead.  but, i’m pretty sure they don’t break down, so i wasn’t sure what the best thing was to do… and then i got to thinking, i bet regular garbage bags don’t break down either, also, why not? that’s absurd! but maybe they do!? does anyone know if garbage bags breakdown in landfills? if not what a shame. big shame, biiiig shame.
