Russian Blocks Set

This set of blocks caught my eye in a toy store last Christmas and I'm still dreaming about them.

The Neighborwood D.I.Y figure is housed in a wood box measuring 4.5" X 8" X 10" = "suitable for decorating in a multitude of ways can be used as a hanging shadow box or a display shelf assembled figure fits inside perfectly"

Garage Sale Report April 5, 2008

Today's garage sales netted 2 Schwinn bicycles, 3 bike seats, a pair of 20" wheels and a Technics turntable, all destined for Coco's.

What about for me? A Fred Arbogast Hula Popper fishing lure, a beanbag frog and a half a bottle of L'Occitane Lavender Linen Water.

The beanbag frog just had too sweet a look on his face to pass up. Obviously homemade, it would seem that somebody, somewhere, is short one paisley polyester pant suit.

Fishing lures are continually interesting to me. My pal Coop went temporarily insane for fishing lures, culminating in a 156 photo Flickr set. I spent a lunch break naming as many as I could, like the Big Mama Thornton and the Table Scraps.
