The Fast and the Furious
August 14, 2008

I’m a true kid at heart. I like to play in the mud, dig ditches and build forts with my son. That’s why this M-Gears Remote Control Grand Prix Car from Learning Resources is just my speed. Talk about a sweet ride, with this gizmo I can totally put my son on the road to learning fun.
Booze it up with your pup

Drink up with this plush dog toy
I hate drinking alone. That’s why I picked up some Asti Spumante for me, and some Dog Perignon for my puppy. She’s only 6, but in dog years she must be old enough for some champagne. This Plush Dog Toy from GW Little is perfect to crack open on New Year’s Eve, for a special Anniversary, or when Sparky finally catches that tail he’s been chasing for years.
Spunky monkey, that funky monkey
July 16, 2008

Work is tough. Don’t get me wrong, my job is more fun than a barrel of monkeys, but when I’ve had a particularly difficult day at the office I like to go home and cuddle with my Spunky Monkey…and no, I don’t mean my husband. This adorable Stuffed Monkey from Garden Botanika is not only cute, but he’s aromatherapeutic.
Kiss me I’m clean
July 11, 2008

I never thought I’d ever take a bath with Gene Simmons, but I guess these days, anything is possible. Tub time was never this fun before I started bathing with this Kiss rubber ducky from The Retro Baby.com.
Hey Taxi
July 8, 2008

Times are tough. It’s getting harder and harder to make ends meet. That’s why I’m buying my son this mini Taxi Vintage Pedal Car. He’s gotta start bringing home the bacon at some point. How else are we going to get Tivo?
A chip off the old building block
July 1, 2008

If I had played with Kapla toys instead of slinkies when I was a kid, I’d probably be a rocket scientist by now. These Kapla blocks from Kaplatoys.com rival any Wii or Playstation game you’ve got. You can build anything you can imagine. It’s better than Jenga.
It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s Supergirl
June 30, 2008

It’s the end of the month here at work. In other words, crunch time. Do I shudder in the wake of stressful deadlines? Not I. Why? Simply put, I’m Supergirl. I’m buying myself this Supergirl Action Figure from FAO.com to put on my desk and remind myself that I can make tall leaps in a single catalog writing bound.
One hot chick
June 24, 2008

My friends are having babies left and right, which means I’m buying baby gifts left and right. I’ve been eyeing this Cruising Baby Rocker Duck from FAO.com for my friends’ babies…but I really want to take a ride on one myself. Just look how happy that kid is. I need me some of that.
Cool kiddie car
June 19, 2008
Why didn’t they have neat toys like this when I was a kid? While I’m going crazy over gas prices, my son will be going crazy over this Solar Powered Car from dwr.com.
Indiana Jones I presume
June 18, 2008

I have a crush on Harrison Ford. He’s tall, dark, rugged and handsome, even though he’s 60 something. My house is full of my little boys’ action toys, I wish someone would get one of these Indiana Jones Adult Action Figures from Cotswold Collectibles for me.
