Dracula VS Cookie Monster
Castle Dracula will be a mess of cookie crumbs and blood tonight. Tough choice for 70’s parents, huggable old cookie monster or a plush lord of the undead? Nowadays Drac would be a big seller at Hot Topic.

Thanks to Mr Hurst’s 3rd grade art class, I got into making latch rugs as a kid. For about ten minutes, somewhere in a landfill is a half done Superman logo (inspired by the movie) that I just bored with once nice weather arrived. I did finish a snoopy skating on a field of green […]
Here we have a small snippet of my childhood, if asked which bedspread I wanted there is no doubt in my mind that the six year old me would have chosen Star Trek. I was forced to watch it every Saturday morning when my sister had a fleeting crush on William Shatner (she now shivers […]

Kind of a mash up today, I had two great topics and just decided to put them together, first is the remanents of my Sesame Street Record collection, I swear my mom bought every single one of these, here are some of my favourite covers. This Monster cover has to be my favourite, just the […]
In my previous rant about how cool the Fisher Price Sesame Street Playset was someone on the PlaidStallions MySpace Page brought the clubhouse to my attention. Although nothing ever remotely resembling it appeared on the show, the clubhouse was an awesome toy. It’s trap doors; secret doorways and weird moving sidewalk are part of some […]
I remember this toy in Dominion Play World as a kid, as big as a Bert and Ernie fan that i was (My talking Ernie is in my office as we speak) I could not fathom why they would need a car. I honestly thought they weren’t old enough to drive and why is their […]

I don’t remember these but for some odd reason I do remember wanting slippers just like these that had the McDonalds characters, God only knows why….. Next week more toys, more pajamas and some […]
