lost & found vintage toys

flashback friday fun ~ geraldine

something different for flashback friday ~

this vintage book from the dairy council of california belonged to toxic ~

as you'll read in my lost & found intro, toxic is the nickname i call my inner child, who is alive & well, & maybe evil ~

this book is about a cow ~

originally her name was geraldine ~

but toxic used whiteout to change her name ~

as well as the little dog's ~

i'll just leave it at that ~

oh dear ~

maybe as big as knickers?! ~

keep clean & drink your milk, kids ~
