Nostalgia

With the hot weather we've been having lately in NY, I've been thinking of great summer memories.  What made summer so great as a kid?  I have one specific memory of many: my mom picking my friend Teena and me up from our last day of 5th grade to see Pocahontas in theaters.  I remember getting chocolate bars with Pocahontas scenes on them. 

Then I found this ad on YouTube and got even MORE nostalgic.  Can't they make this for Brave?  ...Apparently not.  I just searched "Pixar Brave chocolate" all over Google & Yahoo and I got NOTHING.  I guess it wasn't meant to be.  If only Nestle would read this post and realize there are people out there who would totally buy it.  Maybe they're delivering baby carrots to Shop Rite with Brave scenes all over the plastic baggies.  America's children don't need chocolate.

(Yes, they do.)

Jiminy Cricket!

 

I believe it was April 29 when Disney released this Jiminy Cricket Vinylmation figure.  I just so happened to be going to a Death Cab for Cutie concert that night in the city and stopped at the Disney Store in Times Square to pick up this little fella.  Not only was this a great addition to my collection, but one dollar from each purchase went to the Make a Wish Foundation!  Jiminy!  When you wish upon a star...

Well if there's any other collectors out there, here's some more photos!  Enjoy!
