The Case of the Missing Coffee

What happened to my coffee?  Gone again.  And I didn't drink it.  So who did?  Clearly a case for sophisticated intellect to solve.
Normally this would be a job for Dr. Max Abima who can trace his lineage directly back to Sherlock Holmes.  When he puts on his detective hat, scamps head for the hills.

Unforunately.......Max took a three-tiered fall this weekend.  (He'll be fine. More on this later)

With Max busy on the mend, who do we call?
The Kasoogi's of course!  With their scientific minds and innate curiosity they will get to the bottom of this in a jiffy.
They jumped at the opportunity and built a camouflaged stakeout. Here we see them watching, but barely.

 They put out of cup of java and waited. Soon the culprits took the bait and made off for parts unknown.  The Kasoogi's pursued and found the pair kicked back in their lair. (It was decaf).

Guilty! But forgiven.

Ice-bat's Winter Hat

Winter is coming, and this tiny Ice-bat is ready.   Ice-bat's are known to enjoy the cold, but also appreciate a snappy looking hat.

He's obviously loved and well cared for!

This is one of my favorite Uglydoll photos.  Thanks to guerillalover on Flickr for taking this great pic, and giving us permission to share it with you.
====================

This little fellow is a Clip-on Uglydoll Ice-Bat.  You can have your very own from the Official Uglydoll Store. He's a friend for life!

Photographs by David and Sun-min

The photographs from Giant Robot Uglycon EX Art Show are now up and available on the Giant Robot website.

Staying Up Late with Wage

When Mindi Wage wants to stay up late, we stay up late!  He has an infectious enthusiasm for late night radio, story-telling, or reading a good book out loud.

He's very fond of turning off the lights and bringing a flashlight to bed. Everyone huddles together as faces take on a special glow, as do imaginations!

Try it sometime.

Sidd and Sydney

Do you believe in love at first sight?
That's how it was for me and my Wee Wedgehead, Sydney.  We took one look at each other and knew we were meant to be lifelong friends and family.

Of course having the same name didn't hurt.

Sydney is a Clip-on size Uglydoll, so he's easy to travel with, and even easier to snuggle. Don't be fooled by his tininess.  He can give a giant hug!  It's about heart, and intention, and the power of BLUE.

A huge thanks to David and Sun-min, without whom....no Uglydolls!

Uglydoll Cupcakes

Doesn't it just make you smile?  Me too!
These Uglydoll themed cupcakes were made for a birthday party.  I'm sure they were big a success.
Our thanks to  Tim Green for the use of his photograph, and to his wife for making these amazing cupcakes.
You can see more of his great photos at his Flickr site here. 

Cozymonster Flatwoodsey Uglydoll Clock

This much awesome is a lot to process all at once.  But I'm getting it done!

Where to begin?  The colors!  You could call this color with a capitol C.  They're vibrant, but not shocking. They're bright, but not blinding. They're happy, but not goofy. They're that rare combination of qualities that combines just the right amount of "this and that" in the very most pleasing way.
It's Uglydoll!  Again!  

Cozymonster was well-named because he is softy, cozy fun. His little brown nose is ideal for his orange complexion, as are the yellow teeth.

This guy is the cure for those of you who never got next to orange.
He's a bridge builder for the orange-challenged.
And if anything can destigmatize the color pink, it is Flatwoodsey.  I am very down with pink, but some are not.  Again, be ready to turn the corner and LOVE the color pink!

The Uglydoll Clock deserves a post all it's own, so soon I will be back with that. Once it's out of the box!

Oops. Almost forgot!  If you want your own box of Ugly goodness head over to The Official Uglydoll Store, or to one of my favorites...CSToys. 

These receive my highest rating for Holiday gifts and goodies.  I know if one of these popped out of a gift box, I'd be over the moon.
