20 calories per piece!
At least it's colorful.
And fruity. ;-)

Pop-Up Toy Fun
Some toys are classic; I think every kid over the last 50 years has had one like this.
Love how colorful and happy they make these kid's toys with the up again, down again animals in a pop box.
Monkey, lion, pig, and elephant.
Hey, I'm remembering that I'm just a kid at heart too! :-)

Great Microwave Decor
Why watch through the glass window, the food on the turntable (and the splatter) as it heats up when you can instead see some real art!
Also, kids art is somehow always the best; they see things in a more pure, unadulterated, as well as a fantastical way that makes you look at life anew again.
Enjoy the wonderful art Papi! ;-)

Door To Fantasyland
It looks like out of some kid's book where the character disappears into some complete fantasyland.
Maybe this could be the entrance for the movie, Willie Wonka and The Chocolate Factory (although it doesn't look very chocolatey).
And if you're high as a kite, this will fit right into your psychedelic visions for yourself.
Wherever this door takes you, it's gotta be good (if not a little nauseous too).

Teaching Kids To You Know What
Mini toilets to teach the kids to go potty.
The big pot can probably be scary for a little kid.
Don't want them to end up falling in and whoosh!
Ok, not funny!
Seriously though, these little training toilets are cute.
Honestly, I think there are some adults that need some potty training too.
Yes, you know who you are! ;-)

When We Were Kids
Many moons ago.
Television with rabbit ears in the background.
That's when we all we had were 4 stations ABC, CBS, NBC, and PBS.
We called it the "Zombie Box" because you could just stay glued to it for hours and tune the world out mesmerized at the moving pictures.
Everyone knew what was on every station, every hour of the day and still there was a TV Guide published weekly to check.
When the TV went fuzzy, you had to give it a clop on the side and magically the picture cleared up for a few minutes if you were lucky.
Those were the days. ;-)
(Thank you to my sister, Roz, for refreshing a copy of this to me)

Rubik's Cube On Speed
That's a total of 54 moving squares to order by color on each side.
This Rubik's Cube On Speed is 7x7 by 6 sides.
So this cube has 294 squares to figure out.
(I did find another cube on eBay that was even larger, 15x15, called "Professional Level" selling for $384.40)
I'm sure there are some real whiz kids out there that can do these puzzles.
And probably in under 3 minutes...
For me, I admire the dexterity and spatial skills. ;-)

Take Off Those Shoes
We have a sign in our house that people should take off their shoes when they come in.
Heck, it's part of being a neat freak and somewhat germaphobic.
But of course, the kids invariably don't follow the house rules and we get the shoe dirt all over.
And guess who has to always clean it up?
Well the other day, my daughter was looking to purchase a condo, and when she found a place she liked, she was walking around the apartment and saying:
When I have my own place, everyone is going to take off their shoes.
Hmm, when the place is yours and you have to clean up the messes, all of a sudden the house rules are in effect and big time. ;-)

And On That Day...
In the true story that I recount, a little Ethiopian girl tells me:
There is no reason to fight because we all believe in G-d and that He created us.
Similar to what Zechariah prophesized (14:9)
The LORD will be king over the whole earth. On that day there will be one LORD, and his name the only name.
I hope you enjoy this piece on faith, unity, and hope for the future. ;-)

To Little Jonah
He sort of made himself known to me when he decided he wanted to race me on the swim board.
I was going just a little faster--and I reminded him that I had a key competitive advantage, fins.
He said, "Darn I should have brought mine!'
He asked how old I was, and I said a little older than you.
Not satisfied, he pressed the question, saying "I can tell you are an adult."
So I had to cave and admit that, and pointing to my heart, added that "I am young at heart."
Jonah's in 1st grade, and wanted to know what grade I was in.
His guess was 4th grade, and I said "That's about right."
Jonah is from New Orleans visiting his grandmother for Passover.
She was watching him in the pool and smiling with grandmotherly nachas, ear-to-ear.
I told Jonah to make sure to treat his grandmother nicely.
But Jonah at this point had jumped into my swim lane and was in mock superhero fighting mode, and said "I want to punch you."
I thought to myself, hmm it's not only my wife that feels that way (LOL).
Anyway, it was clear that I had made a new friend with Jonah, who was off bobbing up and down in the water well over his head.
Bye Jonah--have a good time visiting for Passover.
