leene_chanI went out shopping today. I set foot inside a Toys R Us for the first time since 1999, and let me tell ya...I was not impressed. As far as Monster High dolls, all they had was a pile of Dead Tired Draculauras and Ghoulias, and one Sweet 1600 Frankie with a lovely face and messed-up bangs. She would have been a great reroot candidate if not for her $32.99 price tag.
So I retreated in defeat and turned to the Lalaloopsy aisle. They had all the Series One Littles, Silly Hair Bea Spells-a-Lot (not as cute as I thought, and $37.99!!), the big version of Forest Evergreen (cute, but not for me) and a handful of the dessert-themed minis. I ended up buying my very first mini Lalaloopsy, Cherry Crisp Crust. I doubt I'll make a habit of spending almost $8 for something my cat could swallow, but some of the minis are quite unique!
Then I checked Target. The only Monster High doll they had was one Skull Shores Ghoulia! They did, however, have all the Series Two Lalaloopsy Littles minus Pita Mirage, and let me tell ya...Trinket Sparkles was a lot cuter than I thought she'd be. So I bought her. ::sobs:: What the hell is wrong with me? I've been really attracted to pink things lately. I'm willing to crack heads for the full-sized version of Charlotte Charades, whenever she comes out...
I can't believe that I finally found that large crystal colorless decorating sugar--at Target, of all places! I'm going to sprinkle it on blueberry muffins, pumpkin bread, blueberry pie...I'm so thrilled that I don't have to order it from King Arthur flour, or something equally stupid.
