Summer Is Here!

June 30, 2011
Finally the sun has come out in Los Angeles. This morning Teddy took advantage of the fair weather by enjoying a stroll around the other place she thinks Kate Middleton may stay, the famed Beverly Hills Hotel on Sunset Blvd. (remember Teddy stayed there last year when she ran away from Nibs).
Fopsie--Teddy's Hollywood insider--told her that Kate and William may take a bungalow for the night at this wonderful pink palace (bungalow can be seen in background above). Could it be true?
Will Kate be sniffing the same Bougainvillea that Teddy so often admires? (Actually, Boungainvillea doesn't have a scent, someone should really tell Teddy.) Stay tuned!

Kate Middleton's L.A. House

June 29, 2011
Fopsie told Teddy what the address is to the super secret house Kate Middleton and her husband Prince William will be staying in when they visit Los Angeles on July 8, 9 and 10.
The Hancock Park mansion, which looks pretty small actually, isn't that far from Fopsie's! It also isn't as nice as Fopsie's, go figure.
Teddy wonders if she'll get arrested camping outside this place while the royals are in town. She figures she's so small the cops won't see her nestled in one of these trees. Hee hee. Either way, this bear promises to get you all the details when the British monarchy comes to town!

Ashley Hebert Slammed For Her Looks!

June 28, 2011
After watching The Bachelorette all season, Teddy feels sorry for poor little Ashley Hebert from Maine. She's not the prettiest and she's not the brightest, but she certainly doesn't deserve to be slammed the way she is!
Life & Style said she's been tortured for her looks, which is true. Some of the guys, like dirtbag Bentley and clueless William, confessed that they wish it had been Emily Maynard who was the Bachelorette and not Ashley. That's just evil!
InTouch showed this awful photo of Ashley sans hair and makeup and hotsie totsie clothes. She looks just dreadful! Ashley, you're a celebrity now, put on the war paint!
Here's a closeup in case you want more. The article was about how Ashley slept with Bentley, but Teddy didn't want to read it. TMI.
Here's a photo of loserface Bentley on his honeymoon, below. Teddy doesn't think he's handsome at all. Nibs is like 5 billion times better looking, she thinks.
Reality Steve says JP is the winner. Teddy doesn't believe it. Her animal instincts tell her that Ben F. is the winner. Teddy believes Ashley is attracted to JP but it's all lust. She has a deeper connection with Ben F. Also, Ben F. seems rich (was that a Cartier watch he was wearing last night?). Money talks. Also, RS has been wrong for the last 2 seasons, so Teddy doesn't trust him.

Coconut Cupcake

June 27, 2011
Teddy went to a friend's party over the weekend and was thrilled to get her paws on a coconut cupcake.
Everything about the Joan's on 3rd cupcake was deee-licious! It even smelled good (bears like to sniff their food before attacking!).
The next thing Teddy knew, half of the cupcake was gone. In her tummy. Sigh.
Should she offer the other half to her better half Nibs? NOT LIKELY TO HAPPEN.

Elizabeth Taylor's Home In Architectural Digest

June 24, 2011
There are few stars as iconic as Elizabeth Taylor, who passed away recently. Teddy has always wanted to look inside this screen goddess' home and thanks to Architectural Digest's  July issue she can.
Over breakfast, Teddy perused the issue which revealed that Liz, as she hated to be called, had very old-fashioned taste.
She had wall-to-wall carpeting that is comfie but so rare these days.
But her gardens were very romantic and sprawling. It must have been nice to mosey around those grounds.
The bedroom was smaller than Teddy expected it to be. And it had a watercolor hue to it, like a Monet painting.
The world is a little less colorful without Elizabeth in it.

Cold Nights

June 23, 2011
It's been so cold lately that even though Teddy and Nibs both have a nice coat of fur, they've still been getting under their (fake) fur blanket.
Relaxing with her favorite bear was nice, but she felt she still needed to sweeten the situation.
"Teddy, why do you always have to eat chocolate?" asked Nibs.
"Nibs, you know chocolate makes me a better bear," said Teddy. "Why don't you try some too?"

Bloomingdale's Browse

June 22, 2011
With Teddy's birthday coming up next month, she thought it was time to look around for a gift that Nibs should buy her. Bloomingdale's was just the place to run through.
For a while now, Teddy has wanted to change some of her party dishes. Instead of gold, she wants to go silver. Hmmm, should she tell Nibs to get these bowls and platters?
There is also a need for a new coffee pot and maybe a new tea pot.
Or maybe Teddy should just ask for more jewelry which she tends to do every year...

Real Housewives Of New Jersey Houses

June 21, 2011
Ever noticed how the houses on The Real Housewives Of New Jersey are really large and brand new and super swank complete with chandeliers and balconies?
Take Melissa and Joe Gorga, for example. They're in their 20s and have a few kids, but can still afford this mansion below that looks like a mini hotel.
Then there's Teresa's spread which is a little over the top, but it must cost a few million anyhow.
Teddy is going to check out www.realtor.com to see what the prices are like in Jersey. They must be a lot lower than in Beverly Hills!

Father's Day For Bears

June 20, 2011
Even though Nibs is not a father (yet), Teddy wanted to give her Old Furball a present anyhow.
Teddy is so clever she gave a Nibs a gift that she really wanted. That way she could enjoy it too.
"Teddy, you think I'm going to share these with you, but I'm not so sure I will," said Nibs.
"C'mon Nibs, you can't eat this entire box of See's candy all by yourself," said Teddy. That Teddy is a real sweet talker!

The Clan Dines Together

June 17, 2011
If Teddy doesn't invite the bears over she never seems them! Teddy is like the chief of the bear clan. Always getting everyone together!
Nibs made steak and potatoes with Brussels sprouts for Fopsie and Herbert and Edward and Felicia. And of course Teddy too.
Teddy was happy. At first she was skeptical about Edward and Felicia dating. But now she can see they are good for each other.
Fopsie was still worried about Teddy's reality TV addiction and didn't want to tell her Bravo was currently casting The Real Housewives of Malibu, which Teddy would no doubt want to be a part of even though she doesn't live in Malibu.
Edward and Felicia just stared at each other all night. Cub love.
Teddy put out peonies for the dinner party. Aren't they pretty?

Debbie Reynolds' Movie Memorabilia Auction

June 16, 2011
While walking through Beverly Hills, Teddy noticed The Paley Center For Media was showing off Debbie Reynolds' collection of movie memorabilia which is going up for auction on June 18.
If you look carefully to the right in the far back, you can see Marilyn Monroe's white halter dress from The Seven Year Itch. It's going for $1 million! If you click on the photo it will get bigger.
This bed is from Cleoptra which starred Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. Angelina Jolie is starring in a remake next year.
This red car is mysterious. Is it from Love Story? Two For The Road? To Catch A Thief?

Villa Blanca

June 15, 2011
Teddy had a lot to mull over after what Fopsie said about reality shows being fake. So she headed to Villa Blanca in Beverly Hills which is owned by The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills star Lisa VanDerpump. Teddy thought Lisa could straighten all this out for her.
Too bad Lisa wasn't in. She was tending to Giggy at home. :( Teddy decided to dine by herself and get her mind off reality shows.
Hmmm, Teddy felt like she could really splurge since Nibs wasn't around to judge her choices. That's why she ordered a big glass of VINO! Slurp, slurp.
Teddy went with the spicy tuna over fried rice. Deeeeelicious. The day was going so well that she completely forgot that The Real Housewives of New Jersey was fake.

Tea Talk With Fopsie

June 14, 2011
It's been a while since Teddy had a talk with Fospie just the two of them so she invited herself over to her bestie's house for tea.
"Teddy, you are watching way too much reality TV," Fopsie said. "Since I work in the TV business I can tell you that all those shows are fake, the drama is created."
"I don't believe it Fopsie!" countered Teddy. "Nibs told you to say this. He just wants me to watch less TV. He says it's making me nutty!"
Fopsie was tongue tied. She didn't know how to tell Teddy Nibs was right. Instead she offered Teddy a lemon from her garden.
Fopsie is a master of changing the subject.

Real Housewives Of New Jersey Drama

June 13, 2011
Teresa is having a huge war with sister-in-law Melissa on The Real Housewives Of New Jersey and Teddy loves every minute of it!
Deep down, Teresa is sickly jealous of Melissa and can't handle the competition.
Melissa has very limited brain power, but she does have a decent voice, which we heard on last night's episode.
And Joe, Teresa's brother and Melissa's husband, is extremely sensitive for a goomba. Aren't goomba's from Jersey supposed to be tough?
The only thick-skinned person on the show is Caroline. Here is Caroline showing us how she used to shoot groundhogs back on the farm she grew up on. Run!
Does anyone feel sorry for Caroline who has Empty Nest Syndrome?
