I had all of them except the Ice Bird – we had a Snoopy snow cone maker.

made the mistake of mentioning the fact that i never had a barbie or any doll. she thought that was a bad thing and went out and spent $200 on some lifesized baby dol thing for a christmas present. was funny, but certainly NOT necessary.
(eve the doll lives in a box in my closet. don’t need a doll as a 36 year old, just as i didn’t need one as a 6 year old. sigh.)
anyhow, i am glad to know that i am not alone in not being a doll person.
merry christmas…
