*un recuerdo


Jamesen, Marie, Vera and I were at the register paying for our books [The Poky Little Puppy and The Elegance of the Hedgehog which I highly recommend!].  Vera is usually pretty obedient about these things, but moments after telling her not to touch the precariously tall display, I heard a big CRASH.  A large bucket perched on top of the stand, filled with dried beans holding up lolly-pops had fallen 4 feet and spilled loudly all across the floor as we stood stunned and embarrassed.  Anyway, this charmingly weird fuzzy $18 gnome piggy bank was on the bottom of the display and, well, you break it you buy it.

the hat broke off into several pieces, but tyler's going to glue it together and keep it.
