Thanks, Lynnie. Sorta dated, though. I wrote it in the '80s. LOL

I love the 80's IO1!
Flowers I think I saw cabbage patch dolls in Target.

Look up cabbage patch or rainbow brite on ebay.
some of them are pretty pricey. Of course probably worth more a few years ago, economy is really down right now.
I seen some for 4 or 5 hundred dollars a couple years ago, still in the box. !!

word of warning if you do the herb garden one...do NOT use the potting mix they put in there...use miracle grow or your favorite normal potting mix.
