Every year we would go on vacation to Daytona Beach. The last day of our vacation we would take the Grandchildren to the dollar store on the beach. It was great. What kids can find for a dollar. I always ended up bying sea shells to send home with them. Thanks for sharing.

I love how your "dollar store" sells picture frames for $19.99 and up. I had no idea that Michael's had been struck so hard by the recession that it needed to become a dollar store.

Jen Green said...

She popped the Octo-Mom??? OMG, are the babies ok??????

Sharon GristmillWorker said...

Ok, so we actually went to Michael's as well, but these hats were in the $1.00 bin so I felt they fit the motif!! It's ART, let it wash over you... lol!

Jen Green said...

Tomatos are fruit! And why does it have a pointy butt?

Sharon GristmillWorker said...

No, they are "decorating" her shirt and my purse!

Sharon GristmillWorker said...

Maybe it's a really red radish?

Jen Green said...

Well then maybe that's why he's mad...someone cut off his long green thingies. (Don't radishes usually have those?)

These are the guys that didn't get the Veggie Tales callback.

Sharon GristmillWorker said...

Hahaha.. and I heard the pumpkin had taken special lessons and slept with the butternut squash just to ensure she'd get the part!

Terri Lockerridge said...

Watch out Sharon.. he is throwing a gas bomb!

Terri Lockerridge said...

Minny Pear Daddy Rabbit.. love the price tag.. wink!

Terri Lockerridge said...

Yes indeed.. it is an ardvark which has been smelling something with lots of pollen on it.. or a big yellow toothed snake bit it on the nose.. .. psst.. Sharon.. honey.. this is not really art .. this is animal planet come to life..

Terri Lockerridge said...

I bet she cleaned it right up and didn't have to be told twice did she?...

Terri Lockerridge said...

hahahahaaaa! Hey Dad you gona eat that pickle?

Terri Lockerridge said...

Now THIS is art!

Terri Lockerridge said...

HA! now that is a find! he will want to have it for sure.. put it right on the ceiling with his Mr. Peanut!

Terri Lockerridge said...

That show still scares me.. it is the flying monkeys.. those things are rabid.. I just know they are!

Terri Lockerridge said...

I was trying to out Harvey, Harvey but I just couldn't fade to invisible.

Frank Spicher, Sr. said...

Only after the laughing stopped...and to hide the evidence of her hate/murder for animals starting with the letter O. She ran over an opossum just before killing this octopus.

Frank Spicher, Sr. said...

Upon seeing her license, to confirm her as my daughter, I did give her some of my chicken...grudgingly.

Wicked Witch said...

If I didn't know better, I'd say... why, yes, I believe he's tittering.

Wicked Witch said...

Turn around! Let us see the tail!

Wicked Witch said...

Oh dear... Oh d-d-d-dear dear!

Wicked Witch said...

Oops and ew.

Wicked Witch said...

Aw, look at those pleading eyes! Who can resist? Apparently Dad can.

Wicked Witch said...

So Michael's inspired you, eh? Are you practicing random kindness and senseless beauty?

Wicked Witch said...

Oh! Mr. Peanut would look soooooo cool wearing this hat!

Wicked Witch said...

Yes, Lockerridge, they are. I look awesome! Thanks, Sharon!

Wicked Witch said...

Yeah, what's that peanut doing in there? Mmmm... boiled peanuts...

Sharon GristmillWorker said...

He's twitterpated!

Lockie, he wouldn't DARE... notice I'm holding flowers... he'd be afraid I'd use them as a "plug".

Sharon GristmillWorker said...

It's SKYSCRAPER rabbit!!

And I like his tail!!

Sharon GristmillWorker said...

The model here, LOVES animal planet, so she'd be quite pleased by that statement, Lockie!

Wicked, it is a bit.. um... disturbing.... is it not?

Sharon GristmillWorker said...

She did call me hysterical about the fact that she had run over an opossum. She said she saw it in the middle of the road, begged it to sit still, felt it hit under her car and then saw it staring accusingly at her after it had flipped a few times and landed a perfect 10!

Sharon GristmillWorker said...

Don't fib, Hubby o'mine, she stole it right off your plate as if she OWNED you. (She does, doesn't she?! Lol)

Sharon GristmillWorker said...

Lol, could have been that I was finished and was impatiently waiting while hubby continued to gnosh and decided to amuse myself with garbage, but I prefer to believe that an artistic moment inspired me to feats of beauty!!

It definitely is senseless, isn't it! lol

Sharon GristmillWorker said...

I'm thinking the luau flowers gave just the right touch. Must have been snapped when Wicked was on holiday in the islands.

Sharon GristmillWorker said...

Veggie Tales rejects... lol... I had heard that Miss Pumpkin had even taken extra lessons and slept with Mr. Butternut Squash to be sure she landed the part! Guess Mr. Butternut Squash was just out for a piece of gourd.

Jen Green said...

Peanut? I thought it was one of those nasty kidney beans my mother likes to make soup with.
