Whoopie pies

Whoopie pie- yum!

Mable is a bit embarrassed to divulge this – but she is worried. She loves Whoopie pies and naturally they make her smile. How can you eat one and not smile? “Maine, lawmakers are poised to make the “whoopie pie” the official state dessert — even though some claim the chocolate cake sandwich filled with white fluffy filling was actually invented in Pennsylvania… no Mainer has to go far to find whoopies — “bakeries, corner stores, mom-and-pop shops, supermarkets, restaurants, lunch stands, hotels, motels, B&Bs, taverns, bars, dance halls, wherever.” (State Rep. Paul Davis & writer A.J.HIGGINS http://n.pr/e5wwgh.) That all sounds good, so why is Mable worried? She is concerned if the word gets out that perhaps there will be a shortage. A shortage would mean unhappy people. Unhappy people mean frowns. You must remember that Mables company (Emos) main product is smiles. This is worrisome. Frowns are the sad and lonely. Smiles are happy.

 

The weather outside is frightful!

How can it seem like it is raining AND snowing all at the same time. I have to wear boots and carry an umbrella!  Milly with snow boots and an umbrella

These boot things are tough for me! My feet are NOT really made for boots, or shoes of any kind for that matter. Scurrying about is a bit tough these days with all this extra stuff. Oh – some sunshine would be so nice….

Excitement in NYC

Since Boubolicious (Boubo) is the Ambassador of Wisdom he was elected to go to NYC Gift Show. His mission was to learn, meet folks/make connections, and see what he could do for the community. He was there for 2 days and did just that! He is a bit reserved so the way he describes the whole experience is “very positive and excellent.” Others may say “sweet, or “awesome” or even “epic” however, BouBo is not that Urban Cool!

As he is now returning home to the community everyone is looking forward to reaching out and contacting/following up with those new potential friends. The world of Botaniumus is just itching to get  out to the the world of WoMes (see Wessie)!

Thanks to one and all in the grand NYC! I look forward to being in contact.

Botanical Beauties and Beasties

All these creations start as a garden or natural element photo often a flower or bud.  Due to the magic of art and my imagination they are born unto a digital piece of paper and join the land of Botaniumus. A  a community of whimsy &  (mostly) beautiful creatures.
