Toaster...

I love the movie "The Brave Little Toaster". It definitely has some parts that are scary to me but if I skip past those, it really is a beloved film of mine. Mom watched me play with an imaginary toaster the other day. No, not something that I was pretending to be a toaster but a 100% abstract nothing is there toaster. After that, Dad started searching for a pretend Brave Toaster for me. With it being a movie from the 1980's there is no regalia like there is for the Cars franchise. Reminiscent of Lil Sister and her favorite cat Jenny Linsky being from the 1950's. 

Well, Mom pulled out some old scraps of felt and made me a toaster. I adore it. So far it has gone everywhere with me, even into the toilet once (it was just water). The main body is made from an old felted sweater Mom upcycled. Yet another item she's used the sweater to create. Mom says it's really nothing great and the sewing is poor but I'm so happy. I've been coaxing her into making Lampy, Kirby, Blankie, and Radio but she's not sure she's up to that task...yet.

Here's a photo of me with Brave Toaster:

Don't Smile...

When Mom says, "Don't smile" this is what I do...
