Nothing you listed are actually toys. Not sure the king would let them on the island. ;)

I couldn't agree with you more. I can't stand those things, they are ugly and garish.

Wow, then you guys must have HATED the picture of my decorations. Ouch. Well, I do them for my kids, and they LOVE them. ;) My younger son has one in his ROOM right now.

I would banish the Chia Pet.

Around the part of PA where my sister lives, there are a lot of inflatable turkeys at Thanksgiving. We call them target practice. :D :elf:


I don't mind them - except during the day when they are lying all sad looking and deflated on the ground. There has to be a better way to store them during the daylight hours.
Life is good!
