A few weeks ago, Lexie and I headed over to Pia’s house to help her pack donations for the Philippine Toy Library.


It was a productive afternoon of dust bunnies, nostalgic memories, and yes– girl talk.



We got distracted far too many times while packing these goods. Thoughtful girls that we are, we were reminded of a few of our friends with the things we found.


There were also a couple of scary and “What the hell are these?!” toys that went into the boxes that day. Pia received a bunch of papier–mâché bears and hand-sewn (yes, hand-sewn!) puppies? Monsters? Baby Chewbaccas? We spent a good lot laughing our asses off because we really couldn’t figure out what these were.


The books we cleaned and sorted out interested us the most. I even saw a complete set of my favorite Golden Books and Fairytale Classics (it didn’t come with the carrying chest, though)!



After an entire afternoon of packing and a hearty Bannaple delivery for lunch, we finally finished four boxes for the kids!
