hee hee hee , oooooooOOOOoooOOooOooo! finally!!!

gnom gnom gnom.. hmm… maybe… 

gnom gnom gnommmy gnom. gnom gnom. slurp slurp…. okay a solid maybe also. on the station and on each of the different bowls. 

slurp slurp slurpey slurp. definitely maybe, but…hmmmmmmmmm….

mom, rather than pretending, dontchoo think it would be better if i try each setup with actual kibble and stuff? 

loose lips stink ships, or, how to get ahead on cyber brown wednesday :)

hee hee hee, okay dad, i will tell u but u have to keep it a peecret. it is quite simple really…

our first doot will be at noon eastern standard time and our second doot will be at nine pm eastern standard time. during each doot, me and duk duk plan to offer a whole 6 instant gazillionaire adventurer’s wallets (instant because we will be including one very precious eleventy zillion bags of gummy worms bank note, and one very important poooie snake credit card), 3 full trio sets of teeny weeny wonderlands magical poops +planets series (they are numbered uno dos tres and so on) , and there will be teeny weeny wonderlands which can be ordered individually under their particular squadron sector,  which also corresponds to what is printed on the front side on the blue background and indicates how many trees are in each display - cachinnant (one big one little tree) , tempus (three little trees), and ergo amici (one big tree). and because they are all different, these individual teeny weeny wonderland boxes have their own designation, alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and so on. additiona l ferociousification may be selected when ordering from the drop down. one can choose to enjoy them as is, or add a mystery pee spot, a hidey poop, or both a mystery pee spot and a hidey poop. 

this is our amazing first doot selection . and even tho mom made us offer pink, well, me and duk duk made sure it was decootiefied.

and see? here is what i was saying - the top three are the sets for the first doot and then bottom shows boxes alpha thru iota which may be ordered individually under each squadron listing cachinnant thru ergo amici. 


and this is our equally impressive second doot selection! hee hee, u might notice that the majority of wallets here are actually mostly colored after certain ferocious animals u already know. there would have been a more me now colored one but the gray leather mom ordered was not skived down to the thickness she needed so we can just pretend i am still baby poooie brown. 

i really like how all our magical planets turned out, dontchoo? the teeny weenies look so happy to be spreading the pee and poop joy! 

so, anyhoo, yeppies, that is it. hee hee so simple, right? o, one more thing - we made a timey wimey doot time translator chart. so our friends living elsewhere can finally figure out when the doot starts! 

hee hee okay so now that’s it really. i hope u can keep a secret, dad, because this cyber brown wednesday will be so pooptacular! now can we go downstairs and eat a block of cheese before mom comes back? :) 

just add money :)

dear diary, 

as u might can imagine, me and duk duk managed to use up a lot of mom’s toner printing all the money we needed to run our day to day fun. so, then we thought, why not print up credit cards? because then we can spend even more and not have to worry about anything. except for maybe how to keep together our money and our credit card and my pedal driver’s license, and well, everything for when we go on our adventures. so that is why me and duk duk asked mom to help us make the gazillionaire adventurer’s wallet, a slim, minimalist 4 pocket wallet hand stitched with the finest vegetable tanned italian leather scraps! and i am so excited to tell u that we liked ours so much, that we asked her to make some for cyber brown wednesday so our friends can enjoy them, too.  i really like them a lot because the slots look like hills and mountains, and of course there are teeny weenies running all amongst them. o! and, to add to the genius of our idea, every wallet ordered on cyber brown wednesday will come with its very own eleventy zillion gummy note and poopie snake credit card, so you or your lucky gift receiving recipient can become an instant gazillionaire, just like us. hee hee, welcome to the club. 

anyhoo, here is a peek at a few of the card wallets we will be offering and do not be alarmed if we do not blog posty regularly this week, what with us being busy making etsy listings and then eating and well, mostly eating really. which reminds me, i would also like 2 wish u a very happy thanksgiving! okay now i really must sign off and help mom with the listings before duk duk’s family arrives. 

toot-dley doo!

b :)

hee hee, and i thought they were pretty on the front side :) 

wolf tank :)

well, mom, that is the family discount rate. two chomps are usually fifteen bags of gummy worms each. as it is now, u may have two toesie chomps and kiss my tummy for only 10 bags. or, 8 if u pay the difference in cherry tomatoes. :) 

tiny present :)

ooOOOOooooOooOo! a package for me!

hee hee, i do not have my glasses on to read the note  but i can totally smell i mean tell it is from my friend miss debbi!

and looky, she wrapped it so nicely… in christmas paper. gee, i guess this means technically i should wait to open it for at least, o, eleventy more weeks then.  sigh, if only santa was not watching. hmmmm….hmmm…

o i know!

hee hee, a wolf cannot help it if his present accidentally opens while he moves it to his heat cave for safe keeping. :) 

under where :)

hee hee, um, well, just being super nakey stealthy and hoping u will drop a snackie, mostly. 

nakey lunch

tiny chumley had a dental cleaning and a few bumps removed yesterday, nothing worthy of labs but things that the tushie man felt could require attention in the future, when our little wolf would be older and less spry and less capable of handling surgical intervention. better to take these things off when he’s strong and healthy, and his blood work and stats are fine, the tushie man said. which made total sense to all of us, save the little four legged boy who probably would have been happier noping and napping his way through yesterday. 

sheesh next time, mom, well let’s just say there does not need to be a next time . although the staying home from school for the next two weeks and me being nakey nakey parts are fine. and the xtra snackies :) 

secretaries of the treasury

hee hee, no, u stink more, duk duk! no wait, i mean i stink more! u? no, i stink more!  hee hee, no, i stink more! 

okay, can we just agree to disagree because we really need to finish this before mom gets home and finds out we used her printer again without asking. i mean, seriously, how can she think that projects like this are a waste of toner? this is probably like, the most genius and mature thing we have ever come up with, really, what with this paper currency being the ultimate representation of a fungible, fiscally responsible financial system, backed by gummy worms. which are probably like, the most stable valuable commodity like, ever really. this money, our money, will be more valuable than gold. more valuable than kibble. more valuable than - dare i say it? even more valuable than poopie snakes. waste of toner indeed! why, when we are done printing our money, we can buy mom even more toner than she ever needed! that’s the power of gummy worms, yessiree. 

hee hee, what’s that, duk duk? o yeppies, let’s print a zillion more sheets before she gets home so we can be gazillionaires. :)  

u say candy i say banana :)

hmmmm….hmmmmm…hmmmm…

well, are u sure it was halloween candy wrappers?  because usually that sort of thing happens with a banana peel. which me and duk duk were definitely not eating yesterday night. :) 

reTreat Tuesday :)

hee hee, yeppies, definitely still as ferocious as sunday.  okay everybuddy now remember, the whole reason why we agreed not to eat our candy haul and get all dizzy like we usually do is so we can go back out today and offer to take everyone’s leftover halloween candy off their hands. timing is everything, really. because if u try late on sunday people will be like nopies go away we are going to eat all of it, but by monday they will be like, wow the room is starting to spin and by tuesday , well by today they will be like, i think i’m going to hurl, please, take all of it! which is why we all have to be in peak physical form because i think we will get at least eleventy hundred pounds on our street alone! hello? u guys know  i can’t turn my head down with this thing on - why isn’t anybuddy saying anything??

 

aw great.  some buddies just couldn’t refrain from helping themselves to some candy after all, could they? well, i can’t pedal by myself.  now how am i gonna get all the candy home? ? hmmmmm. o i know..

mom, can i borrow your phone so i can uber a dump truck? :) 

happy ferocious joyful :)

Sometimes the best a little wolf can do is quietly wait until it is time for him to once again become the beacon of all that is happy, ferocious, and joyful. :) 

plans within plans :)

um, well, u see, if u leave the tub filled after u r done, me and duk duk may or may not need to finish what we started. after u turned on the water and apparently walked away while it was filling. but before u got in. because, well, in retrospect i guess it is kind of funny really, us stinking i mean thinking that nobuddy was going to get in the tub and u know, that the water was just filling the tub for no reason really. except for me and duk duk to do what we may or may not have done. that we are hoping to finish. um, u r planning to shower after your bath, right, mom? 

sleepy tongues of the week :)

:) 

a gummy saved is a gummy eaten

mom, after i am done with pounding duk duk, can u please take us to the candy store so he can replace all the gummy worms we were saving to buy our new trebuchet? 

how to recover an office chair (v.2.0) by baxter and duk duk

dear diary,

through no fault of my own, my dad’s office chair went kablooey beyond repair, and, because the shopping gods offered a chair better suited for her, she gave my dad her old chair and we covered the one she found in girly stuff,  which is why our updated instructions on how to cover an office chair do not include images of a chair being covered in ferocious fabric with flames and falcons and wolves on it, and rather shows one being covered in sleek shiny smooth velvets, some of which we dyed long ago.   anyhow, we still thought it might be nice to post instructions to maybe help inspire others, keeping in mind that every chair is different and comes with its own challenges. but the gist is basically the same, especially the last step which is very, extremely, super very important. anyhoo, if u do end up recovering an office chair please do send me a picture or tag me, wontchoo?

i hope u have a wonderful weekend!

toodleydoo!

HOW TO RECOVER AN OFFICE CHAIR - instructions by baxter and duk duk :) 

1) FIND A CHAIR. goto the surplus or thrifty store and find an office chair, making sure the pneumatics and seat adjustments work. my mom found this one for dos dólares. 

2) REMOVE CUSHIONS. remove cushions from the seat. every chair is different so you have to put on your thinking cap. sometimes there will be screws to remove. sometimes, it just requires a long screw driver - this chair has a hard plastic back so all we had to do was carefully ease the cushions out from their fasteners. it did have screws on the underside of the seat but after we removed them we found out the screws only kept the plastic cover in place.  by the way the plastic fasteners were old and brittle so in the process of removing the cushion there was some breakage, but not enough to keep us from refastening the cushions later. had everything broken i guess we would have jiggered something up to reassemble everything, probably using screws and screwing them i to the cushions from the back of the chair. 

3) APPLY FABRIC. make a scrap fabric pattern of the seat and back cushion, noting the center points on the cushion backs and patterns so everything can be lined back up again. use the pattern to cut your seat fabric, then serge or zigzag stitch the edges. run fishing line through the serged / zigzagged edg all around the pattern. pull the seat fabric on to the cushions like a shower cap, making sure all the center points are pinned and aligned. adjust fabric as needed, smoothing excess out from the center of the cushion out and over the edges. inset pins to secure fabric. if you have removed the original fabric,  staple, or (if you kept the original fabric on the cushions you can either staple or ) hand sew fabric using a curved needle , using normal upholstery methods - for example, always start  at the center of a side and work out toward the corner, when finished one side, work the opposite side, starting at the center and making sure fabric remains taut. sew or staple corners last, making sure to smooth from the top side toward the back, to minimize pleat visibility. 

4) REATTACH cushions to seat base. make sure to follow the next step … 

5) put a ferocious wolf on it and enjoy. :)
