Happy Easter!

Dying Easter eggs in the Louis Rich Tudor house. "I want the pink" said Dot to her brother."Don't spill" said Mother hastily. Strombecker furniture. Vintage dolls, does anyone know what they are or who the manufacturer is, bendy???

"Did I remember the shredded coconut?" Alberta wondered in her kitchen...   "I want a p-nut butter sandwich" said brother. 

 Speaking of the 1950's... I was reading a Dick and Jane book to my Little Assistant who is in Kindergarten, "Look, look, look. See Dick look", I read. And she said, "Nana, I like the pictures... but why do they talk so funny?".

Post modern Gingerbread houses, MH Matso, we love you Wes Christensen!

So of course I wanted to make a gingerbread house with my little assistant this year. Have you seen the post modern ones? Too cute.

Pubdolls post today made me want to post this. http://pubdolls.blogspot.com/
I thought about using wafer cookies and after searching the market saw these crackers. Matso crackers were the straightest. (eek, rather like stonehenge... where are the Flintstones?)

Well. I did want to add chocolate steps, fireplace and support but... Doh!   or dough? or doe?
Merry Christmas Wes.We love you!
