my San Francisco treat

My co-worker and her family took on San Francisco last week. In Chinatown, she met this little man and declared that I must have him:

I love him so hard.

His tag says ‘use method: to dangle.’ And so he shall.

The fat man is bringing Kiddo something pretty cool this year:

Microwave S’mores Maker from wrapables.com

“Simply stack your crackers, marshmallow, and chocolate under the cute, hand-like presses, fill the specially-designed water reservoir, and pop it in the microwave for 30 seconds or less. The water will ensure that your s’mores are evenly heated and lip-smackingly delicious!”

What?

Don’t look at me like that. So what if I want some lip-smackingly delicious s’mores? It doesn’t mean this present is more for ME than for my precious precious.

Oh, fuck you.

Under his watchful eye, my enemies don’t stand a chance. Brinks Schminks. Half inch ninjas are the real home security system.

Surprised you didn’t know that.

I had wanted the Baroness Mighty Mugg because she’s kind of a stud, but also because Kiddo said she looks like me.

Now that I have her…

All I see is Michael Jackson.

Storm Shadow Mighty Mugg

He knows what you did last night.

And he is pissed.

Now I just need the one that Kiddo thinks looks like me.

This is my new favorite toy:

It’s big, it’s gaudy, it hurts people when you punch them.
I want it in every color.
