Hot Eddie

Do you remember Eddie? He's the little character that had a blast going for a drive with me one fine spring day.

Move over Eddie.....HOT Eddie has arrived. Well, actually, he's not HOT, but he sure can be warm!

I've just finished a crop brood cluster family of Eddies but with different faces. These Eddies are made to go in the microwave for about 35 seconds. [Not much longer or the rice in-erds will burn.]

Once they are warm and toasty, they become little hand warmers for those crisp, blustery, winter mornings. They are the perfect size to slip into your coat pockets, drop in your boots to warm them before heading out the door, or, heck, you can even slip one down your sweatshirt for that extra special warm-up!

Their faces don't include buttons, so they are all wool and rice - fully prepared to slip in the microwave for a quick warm up.

Well, now look what happened!







What a crazy world I live in!  :-)

Eddie Goes for a Ride

Remember quite some time ago I introduced you to Lucille [Lucy]? She quite the happening gal - and STILL rides in my car. Always.

Well, imagine my surprise when her fourth-cousin, Eddie, showed up the other day. As luck would have it, Eddie came into town right when I needed to make a drive to a church for an event I was attending for my "day job".  I asked Eddie if he wanted to ride along with me. He was ready before me and waiting outside for me.  Here we go.....

Are we about ready to go?

No - I'm a dude. I can do the steps all by myself.

Whew. Lots of steps back here - but I can manage.


Yikers. That's a long way down.

Wait for me....I'm coming!

[The look of full step-determination.]


Finished the steps and now coming along on the pathway. Just about there!

Yay! Finally at the van.

What are all these buttons for?

Can I help drive?

Ok, guess I'm ready to go.

Dang - do I have to wear this dumb seat belt?

No - I'm too excited - I can't stay in that seat!

What! Was that a dog?

What do I see down there? Oh....it's your feet.

Guess we have to run to the bank. Through the drive-through to cash a check.

This is awesome-cool.

La, la, la....I'm at the bank....

Cash. Sweet. Cash.

A little hungry, let's grab some hash browns and a drink from McDonald's.

Mmmm....love that morning soda.

And the hash browns - ooooo, laaa, laaa.

Thanks. I'm full now. Burp.

After the long drive, we are finally at the destination's parking lot.

Yup. I think we'll park here.

I can't go in with you? Wait in the car???

Don't worry -  the windows were cracked open to give me air.

But I'm going to miss you when your'e gone...


Happy to report the event went well - and a few short hours later, we head home. Tired.


[Skip to next morning.] [Oh, oh!]

Ummm, what's keeping you? We're ready for a ride! Hoot hoot!
