Booze it up with your pup

plush dog toys

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. These booze themed Plush Dog Toys from In the Company of Dogs are 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.

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.

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

kapla blocks
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

supergirl

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

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

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

Collectible Figurines from your favorite flicks

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 Collectible Figurines from Cotswold Collectibles for me.

Hot Wheels

Get your kids a vintage pedal car to put in their child’s playhouse garage

I imagine these are the kind of wheels Paris Hilton drove to get to kindergarten. I wish my daughters were still small enough to ride around in this adorable pink Roadster Vintage Pedal Car from Poshtots.com.

I wish I had packed these Dive Dudes Swimming Pool Toys from Swimtowin.com in my kid’s suitcases before they left for summer camp, but I was too busy packing the sunscreen and bug spray.

How many jugglers does it take to change a lightbulb? Only one, but it takes three light bulbs. My kids will really have a ball with this Smart Lab Electronics Learning Lab from Xump.com.
