Florence The Gender-Ambivalent Plastic Dragon goes to Whidbey Island

Yesterday my family met up with mom's friend Tracy on Whidbey island. Tracy is one of those people who won't let you burn oreos on the campfire or wear shoes in the house. And if you chew with your mouth open you have to "go outside and eat with the animals". (oh please. I live in the woods. That's not even a threat!)

So yes. Tracy is an interesting duck and a tad bit creatively stifling. It is me and my dad's job to keep ourselves sane by seeing just how silly we can be  before we have to fear for our lives. That silliness will come later. Right now let's focus on Florence.

This is Florence the Gender-Ambivalent Plastic Dragon.

I found it in Cole's room, and since i have been wanting a plastic dinosaur for months, I picked it up and put it in my pocket. (A plastic dinosaur is something I actually do want. but for my dolls to play with. Yeah. A dragon will have to do for now.) I decided to bring him with me on the trip. Here's Florence on the rock outside my fence

Andie teaches you what to do with unwanted food

Today I was presented with this item here that is pertending to be food.

I can see past it's disguise and can definitely tell you it is one of those Cookies That Isn't Really Food.

This particular species of cookie is not really food, but fluffy, squishy, dry and tasteless bread topped with sugar slime from the Swamps of Confection.

Goggles Tatooine Ice ax Girl tells you a story in her own weird way

Good morning, everyone! Gwen couldn't be here, so for today's story I am standing is as the third person not-quite-omniscient-narrator. Actually, I'm talking in first person right now. Wait till I do third person! I can do funny voices if you like.

My name is Goggles Tatooine IceAxe Girl.

Only I don't know if im a girl. You can't really tell with Legos, can you? 

I seem to be wearing makeup and I am bald. I haven't got any idea what I'm doing here. 

But I will be getting paid, I know that much.

Filbert

A very long time ago, when I still used my google+ i posted this picture

wondering about the paintbrush named filbert.

Maddie mentioned that I should make it.

So I did. it's poorly put together. 

And sappy. 

Oh well. 

I'm proud

and that is the story of filbert.

The Egg

Remember this girl?

The one who is a forest spirit?

Her name does not translate into English well*, but I need some way to reffer to her other than "the forest spirit". So I gave her a boring english name that we can pronounce and remember. Now she is known as Morgan. 

Anyway, Morgan was sitting in her favorite maple tree pondering various aspects of the universe (is the universe expanding? Where did the mythical creatures of old go? Would it be nice to have someone to talk to? Do Gwen's photos look grainy?*). She was talking to the maple tree about most of these things and was getting nowhere. Both of them were fairly young, and therefore inexperienced. It would be better to talk to the Old Trees, but there were only a few of them left who Remembered.
