My daughter, Amy, went to Chicago on business recently and bought my granddaughter, Emily, an American Girl doll - also named Emily! When I checked and found out how much those dolls cost, I was glad they were not high on my daughter's 'must have' list when she was a girl! LOL! She had a Cabbage Patch doll, that we had to wait for. (Named Lindley Athol) and that cost about 1/3 of what an American Girl doll costs.
Amy is bringing the 3 grandchildren to visit during spring break on her way with them to Disney World. I wanted to get some gifts for the grandkids - so you can imagine my amazement when I found this cute little American Girl backpack, which appeared to be brand new, at my local Goodwill Store for less than $3! She can carry it around the theme parks with her. And if I ever win the lottery, maybe I'll buy her Emily doll some accessories!

A practical case and I love red bags, shoes and gloves. Happy ruby Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteThe backpack is such a rich shade of red!
ReplyDeleteA TOUCH OF RED
They say that just one touch of red
Will put big, bold thoughts in your head.
So scarlet’s for you,
And burgundy too,
And cardinal and carmine—‘nuff said!
