Thanks, mmatsuba!

Ha! It does, Ice Nine, but only in emergencies. Bears, like humans, prefer indoor facilities.

Hi Carol! I have a few prints for sale over at Imagekind:

diastema.imagekind.com/

And I promise that I'll get off my lazy ass and start working on a book, but only if YOU start selling TTV prints!

Haha! Damn it...I wish I had a little doll-house size toilet! I'm adding that to my ever-growing wish list.

I had one I could have sent you, it was a toilet keyring I won in a lucky dip in fifth grade, but my kids dismantled it :-(

Charlotte, let's just be glad your kids didn't dismantle your real toilet!

Leave it to yew to make a botanical pun, Ice Nine...

Chuck, I'm pretty sure he's sick of porridge!

Bob, I was hoping someone would chime in with that version! And hey, congrats on your recent nuptials!

Adrienne, I think he's got his eye on an unattended picnic basket...

I just have to ask, even though I'm sure you've answered before. Where in the world did you find all those toys? Especially those mini people. H could you possibly keep them all organized...

Yay for prints! I expect you will be adding more toys. Yes? YES!?

Um, there's a bear in the bushes here everyone. Be careful okay! Have a nice day.
I'll have the mango gelato please.

Aww, but he's just a li'l baby bear, Jann! And speaking of gelato, I had a cup of strawberry-Balsamic the other day...it was truly a little scoop of heaven.

And thank you all for your comments! This bear is the newest addition to my collection and you've made him all feel very welcome.

Muriel, I'll definitely be adding more toys to my print collection so stay tuned! Most of the animals in my collection are made by this company:

www.schleich-s.com/index.php?lang=2

I used to get most of them at a children's science store, but while I was holiday shopping I discovered that both Target and Toys R Us have a pretty decent collection as well. The mini people are for railroad hobbyists, and I get those from a local hobby shop. And thanks to some of my wonderful flickr friends, I've also received lots of cool plastic things in the mail! :)

Yesterday I also had gelato - half tiramisu, half chocolate hazelnut. Mmmmmmm. Why bother with ice cream, really?

this wildlife photography is quite adorable and realistic at the same time. once, when hiking behind our last (also first) house, we spotted three tiny bears in a row, clinging to a tree. they looked like salt and pepper shakers. i was a little concerned about where the mother was, so we skeedaddled. this little guy reminds me of that magical encounter.
