the Toilet Paper Chronicles
With the world gone nuts hoarding toilet paper, I thought I better make sure my kids don't run out, so I made a whole bunch....
I think there should be enough for now.....
...and just in case the pandemic continues into the summer, I made some special 'Rapid Dissolving' for use in RV septic systems....
Stocking Up
.....as seen in the household supplies section today...
"Don't forget the one for the camper..."
Trudging Through the Snow
My Kaye Wiggs girls trudging through the snow with a load of essential supplies....
Through the Rain....
Neither snow, nor sleet, nor hail, or rain, would prevent my Little mice from keeping their families supplied....
A Holey Quest
Sir Kyle braving the storm.....
...carrying the official Royal department banner....
....on his ongoing quest to keep the kingdom well supplied....
Bargaining for a Roll
Narae worked at the local Tavern, and decided to make some extra cash by selling rolls of toilet paper on the side...
With toilet paper being such a rare, sought after commodity, she had hiked up the prices....
"How about this beautiful, designer, diamond and ruby necklace??"
"I have a whole chest full of lovelies for you to choose from..."
"Well, let me see...."
Recognizing a good deal when she saw it, she accepted both their offers...
..and let them each take a whole package....
Comparing Brands
Owen and Adrian were leaving the Tavern with their newly acquired toilet paper.....
"What brand did you get?"
"Cottonelle. My wife insisted that if I was going to be trading her precious jewelry for toilet paper, that it had to be soft enough for her delicate tushle..."
"I see you got a 'travel pack'. You going somewhere??"
"Yeah. My wife misses her mother, so we booked passage to the mainland. But I heard that captain had some passengers thrown overboard last week for clogging up the ship's loo."
"So, even though this stuff cost me way more, I'd rather be safe than sorry...."
Willie & Winston
Willie and Winston on an errand to stock up on essentials.....
They made sure to get enough for all their friends...
Checking Inventory
Today at the castle, we find Lucy doing an inventory check....
With a little help....
..sorting and counting....
Making sure they'll have enough...
the Easter Hunt
The Easter Bunny decided to change things up a bit this year and hide something far more rare and valuable for the kids to find.....
"Rolls of toilet paper? You've got be kidding?"
Cinnamon was doing her best to play along.....
But Tillie's basket was too small for even a single roll....
And Layla's basket was full with just one roll....
"This totally sucks!"
"They aren't even hidden very well...."
"Okay, I have enough. I quit! I hope next year there will be chocolate eggs again...."
Coco, the Entrepreneur
After the children were finally allowed to go to summer camp, Coco decided to take advantage of all the toilet paper he'd hoarded a few months earlier, and set up a sales booth beside the park outhouse....
The kids were lined up with their lunch money, waiting for their turn to buy some....
"I'd like a roll of two-ply Charmin, please.."
Effie and Erzulie already had their rolls and were waiting their turn at the outhouse....
"What's up with Ringo over there?"
"Looks like he only had enough to buy a couple of sheets..."
Holly felt sorry for him, "You can have some of mine..."
"You know, we should have all done that....chipped in and shared just one roll all together. We are all going to need just a few sheets each, and then what are we supposed to do with our rolls for the rest of the day??""
"You don't suppose he'd take some rolls back, and give us a refund??"
