This is the 4th puzzle I completed in the adorable cereal cube set I recently purchased at Ollie’s. I love how Tony the Tiger is drawn here. He looks cool and badass as the same time. LOL I was never a big fan of Frosted Flakes, even when I became an adult and could decide for myself which cereals I wanted to eat. Foot Loops was my go to and Honey Nut Cheerios and that was about it. I’m really…
The third puzzle in the cereal cube set I got from Ollie’s this week was of Tony the Tiger. Isn’t he cute? This is a vintage version of him for sure, but he’s still adorable and looks like he’s ready to take off and get into some trouble if you ask me. I have thoroughly been enjoying these little 50 piece puzzle “snacks”. They’re gggrreat fun to assemble! LOL I’m really happy I decided to get them.
I instantly fell in love with this image. It’s so gorgeous! This is a Chinese brand that I’ve done two times now, and while the pieces are almost paper thin and have letters on the back, the fit was great. It was pretty tight and laid flat. The image resolution was great and very sharp. The other Huadada puzzle I did was the casino / gambling image I completed and gifted to Randy’s cousin who love gambling. There’s no artist…
My top three favorite cartoons to watch as a child were Scooby Doo, The Flinstones, and The Jetsons. Of course there were a small handful of others. like Tom and Jerry that I watched regularly too, but none of them compared to these three for me. When I saw this puzzle on Amazon one day I could not resist getting it. It was only 500 pieces so not a difficult build at all, plus all the detail in the image…
Rice Krispies were a staple of my morning breakfast routine growing up. As I mentioned in the recent Pretty Bird! post, I was not allowed to have any pre-sweetened, sugar-based cereals as a kid. So the original Rice Krispies that had no sugar was one to my go to cereal choices. Snap, Crackle, and Pop were cute little characters too and I enjoyed eating the cereal regularly. I went to Ollie’s Discount Store this last weekend and there was a…
How cute is this puzzle? I went to Ollie’s Discount Store over the weekend and they had a boatload of puzzles. It took me more than 20 minutes just to go through all of them and select the ones I wanted most. Best of all, the most expensive puzzles there were only $7.99 for a 3000 piece puzzle (which I did not get) and the rest were marked at $4.99! What a great price, and they had lots of 300,…
After doing a couple back to back puzzles that were a bit on the darker side, I wanted to go the complete opposite direction with my next one. As you can see there is nothing really dark about this gorgeous Romero Britto puzzle. I love his work and cannot wait to work through this one.
I am a girl of the 80’s and totally willing to freely admit I miss that decade so much! Things were so much better back then than they are today, at least in my opinion. It was a decade full of luxury, great hair, fun clothes, and some of the best pop / rock music ever made! I really started coming into my own musical tastes around 1984 when I saw MTV for the first time at a friend’s house…
I think most, if not all, readers of this blog know Stacey from My Jigsaw Journal and I have been really good friends for a long time. In fact, it has been over nine years now since she first contacted me via this blog when it was just about my build of the 24000-piece Life: The Great Challenge puzzle. What most of you likely do not know is that until yesterday, September 4, 2026, we had never once met in…
WE WILL NEVER FORGET Today marks the 25th anniversary of one of the worst days ever in American history. Close to 3,000 people died on September 11, 2001, leaving behind grieving children, moms and dads, husbands and wives, and cherished friends. Even though a quarter of a century has now passed since these tragic events unfolded before our very eyes on television, I can still remember exactly where I was and what I was doing. I’m sure most of you…
