The Sanctuary of Plain-Spoken Toys

I was feeling insufficient last night because so many of my toys have unimaginative names such as Red Bear, Work Bear, Bed Bear, Farmer Bear (though his full name is now Pepperidge Farm Chocolate Cookies with Sugar Sprinkles, thanks to a comment from Michael on the post Bear appears in), etc.

Mz, who has moved back in for the summer, said, 
"This is the Sanctuary of Plain-Spoken Toys."

  1. I’m honored to have added to the mythology! I wish I could find a picture of the package for those cookies. The general packaging looked something like this, though these are cookie jars. A very 1980s idea of “old-fashioned”, I think.

  2. I like that. They're simple bears, with simple cares.

  3. MICHAEL: I'm pretty sure I remember those cookies! My parents used to buy Pepperidge Farm.

    BINK: A poem!
