Teddy's Teddy

When Teddy can't sleep...

She grabs her Teddy Bear. No, not Nibs. But a little stuffed bear named Lily.

I guess everyone needs a bear to hold now and then...

Fopsie Drops Some Hints

November 17, 2010
With marriage on her mind, Fopsie invited Herbert over for root beer and cookies in her backyard.

"Herbert, don't you think two is better than one?" she asked coyly. "Yes, I do," said Herbert.

"And don't you believe that there is such a thing as soul mates?" she added. "Well, yes," said Herbert.

"These cookies are delicious!" said Herbert. Fopsie was crestfallen. Herbert didn't seem to be getting the point.

When Herbert saw a small tear roll down Fopsie's fur, he jumped into her seat. "What is it Fops?" he asked....

Teddy Wants Her Bling!

November 16, 2010
This morning Teddy made Nibs breakfast and coffee. Awww, so sweet of her.

After the meal, Nibs realized why Teddy was being so nice: she wanted something.

Teddy explained that Christmas was right around the corner and if Nibs wanted to save money on shipping he better order now! She passed him a Ross-Simons catalog to peruse jewelry.

"Diamonds Nibs, please, and nothing under $3,000," said Teddy. She even slid him the phone so he could order ASAP.

That Teddy, so demanding. But maybe she does deserve a little something. She's been wearing that same old pearl necklace for ages!

It's Complicated

November 15, 2010
This weekend Teddy caught It's Complicated on HBO. Nibs refused to watch, saying it was a Chick Flick.

Meryl Streep stars as a divorcee in this 2009 comedy from director Nancy Meyers. She gets caught up in an affair with her ex-husband played by the superbly hilarious Alec Baldwin.

Life for Meryl's harried, middle-aged baker gets "complicated" when she also starts romancing her architect, played by the wooden Steve Martin.

Teddy could never imagine dating an ex. She hasn't even spoken to her ex, a swarthy Italian named Beffalo, for over a decade!

Meryl ends up with the architect which is a sound choice because you just can't recycle husbands! Teddy hopes she never has to. Though she complains about her Nibs, she couldn't live without her bow-tied better half! Awww...

Teddy's Choice

November 12, 2010
Today Teddy spent the afternoon reading Choose to be Happily Married: How Everyday Decisions Can Lead to Lasting Love.

Of course Nibs had to butt his furry head in and start asking questions.

And then he insisted that they read the book together so that they could both learn how to improve their marriage.

Teddy just gave in, because that's what the book said to do! See, Teddy has already made her first DECISION to be happily married. What a good bear!

In A Wedding Way

November 11, 2010
With marriage on her mind, Fopsie started to see wedding stuff everywhere, like at this Claire Pettibone store on Robertson Blvd. that sells wedding gowns. Gorgeous wedding gowns.

Is this really what Fops wants? She's always been a career gal. Does she now want to be a doting wife to a businessman?

So much to think over!

Fopsie A Bride?

November 10, 2010
Yesterday Teddy invited Fopsie over for some tea and cookies. Teddy said it was time for them to catch up, and when Teddy says "catch up" she means she wants to know what's going on with Herbert! (That nosy Teddy.)

"I'm in love," declared Fopsie. "And I want to get married."

 Teddy was shocked. She didn't expect Fops to fall so hard. "Can I start planning a wedding?" Teddy asked.

"Well, first Herbert has to pop the question," said Fopsie. Ding ding ding! Project for Teddy!
