I spent way too long on this dollmaker, only to find that they have no long black skirts (what's up with THAT?) and that once again I can't get the hair right. No avatar maker seems to feature the "brown/black/reddish, wavy medium-length with messy bangs" style. Mmph.

Today it's all about the kids. If you grew up in Cincinnati, you probably remember the Shillitos Christmas display with the animatronic elves in Santa's workshop. Someone has found the old displays and resurrected them in Mariemont! Time to organize an excursion!

Coca-Cola will roll out their new invention, Coca-Cola Blak, in Europe soon and then try it out in the States. Coke plus coffee. This is going to be...odd.

And lastly and leastly, Bush Baby Toys features several toys for your completely average urchin. I like the Terror Level Xylophone the best. Heh.
