Mike and Ike Tasty Treats and Hot Wheels Sweet Rides

Andrew on the Monkey Bars - His Way
Photo-A-Day #4049

Andrew and I went on a few errands today and then finished off with a trip to the zoo and playground. We had to go place the order for the food for Eva’s First Communion. We’re doing platters and sandwiches from Willow Tree. After that we ran over to the comic store to pick up comics. Andrew was a little crazy there but we survived that excursion. Lunch over at Wetherlane’s and Andrew entertained everyone around us as we were leaving by telling them that he flew down a slide and kicked me in the face. He’s a showman. I was attempting to get him to nap later.

When we got to Capron Park we went into the zoo first. He had gotten a lollipop at the comic book shop and wanted to eat it. I figure, let’s walk around and see all the animals and he can finish his lollipop. He did pretty well with it. Then we hit the playground and Andrew played on everything. His favorite thing to do now is to climb across the top of the monkey bars. I’m right there next to him within catching distance, so don’t worry.

For my vlog today I got a bunch of new Mike and Ike candy as well as new Peeps. Those were sent to me for a future promotion and I also spotlighted a few things that I bought recently. One was a 75th Anniversary Captain America Hot Wheels and then the other was a three-pack of Hot Wheels cars including All-New Captain America, Superior Iron Man and Miles Morales Spider Man. Check them out.

I collect stuff. I always have. When something comes out that is collectible I feel an insatiable need to get everything in a whole collection. I know that it is nearly impossible to keep up with something that gets very popular. Take for instance the Die Cast cars from the movie Cars. When they came out originally I tried to buy all of them. I thought, naively, that only the main stars of the movie would be made into die cast figures. So I figured that this would be relatively inexpensive for me. WRONG! Continue reading I Have Collections, Many Collections.
