Barbie Pez Dispensers

Image
 Between the Disney characters and other kiddy-friendly dispensers, you will find a couple of other familiar faces. Barbie is now a Pez candy dispenser! When I spotted them this week, there were three Barbie Pez models. The back of the packaging indicates there are 4 Barbie Pez dispensers to choose from: Blonde Barbie, Curly Hair Barbie, Purple Ponytail Barbie, and the one I did not see—Brunette Barbie.  The first Barbie is a traditional blonde with blue eyes and a pink dress atop a Barbie pink dispenses. The second Barbie sports purple hair and a purple dispenser. The third Barbie at Michael’s is a black Barbie with curly hair on a light pink dispenser.  They are all cute, but I prefer the blonde Barbie and her Barbie pink dispenser. I plan to pick one up tomorrow at Michael’s where I saw them. On second though, I prefer them all! Might as well get the set!

 Send in the Trolls Somewhere I have a fun collection of troll dolls, but they are put up somewhere. All I could find for this photo shoot were my most recent purchases, but they were happy to pose for a New Year’s photo.  None of these guys are Russ trolls, just cute little knock offs from China. And, yes, one of these cuties is in the likeness of former President Trump! Happy New Year from the little troll family!
