Alligators In January

Dennis is an alligator that lives in the China Cupboard next to Dot and Mae. He is named Dennis after a famous poet who wrote one of Big Girl Gabriella’s favorite poems. Dot and Mae would like to share it with you today:

We’re feeling better . . .

Dear Readers, we are sorry about Dot and Mae’s absence, but we are glad to report that they are feeling much better! If you are feeling sick from a head cold, Dot and Mae recommend drinking lots of hot tea, lying around and watching cartoons, and using a neti pot to wash away all the [...]

Sick Day

Hello Dear Readers, I’m sorry to inform you that Dot and Mae are not feeling well today. They have two terrible head colds and are staying in bed, watching cartoons, and drinking Hot Toddys.

Birthday

Dot and Mae have a birthday to celebrate today! Well, everyday is somebody’s birthday right?

Resolutions

While looking for the baby aspirin on New Years Day, Dot and Mae stumbled upon the Ewok that lives in the medicine cabinet. The girls were quite startled when they first ran into him, because really, who expects to find an Ewok in the medicine cabinet? Nevertheless, he’s a very friendly little creature and [...]
