I saw the sign: On the road!

Posted on January 27, 2013, 9:36 am by Molly

The road is like one long stretch of blanket for the Van’s dreamwheeling.

But sometimes that blanket doesn’t have a lot going on, like this:

more like a BLANDket!

…and other times it’s like this!

wastarzowwwzy!

These road dividers found in Brooklyn are dreamwheel worthy in every shade o’ season:

far out flakes

very cherry blAWESOME!

wild road flower (only grows on concrete)

unbeleavable leaves (yet totally believable)

and now for the grande finale…

all the seasons strung together like you’ve never seen’um!

winter, spring, summer or faaallllll, all you got to do is...keep your eyes open to the magic of the road! you thought i was gonna say "call", and get all james taylor-y on you. never!

i’m gonna get all taylor-y AND king-y on you:

HH!

Who knew Hannukah had entered the holiday inflatables market in such a grand way?
Hope your night shines bright and you are eating lots of fried, oily treats to celebrate! Our Vantry is packed with jelly donuts and latkes. Jellous? Come over!

i saw the sign: license plate edition

Posted on October 21, 2012, 9:36 pm by Molly

so i was hopping along with froggy on the bogwalk when i noticed this pro-amphroggian license plate:

froggy gives this plate two frumbs up!

which got me pondering (this is different than ponderosa’ing, which is when i debate how much i want a steak at the strip mall)…what other things do people brake for?

shell-am on the brakes for your slow-going shelled amigos

i mean, who doesn't?

while i used to freaking love the smurfs back in the '83, i now realize they are pretty creepy. not sure i would brake for 'em. sorry childhood icon!

not only would i brake for a unicorn, i would kindly ask the unicorn for a magical rainbow ride through the forest! do you think he/she would oblige? if said unicorn refused my request, i'd think a whole lot differently about the species. huge wake-up call.

who do you brake for? lemm’us know!

love,

the vantry: it takes two to mango!

hey nibblers,

one of my fave things to do is share all the goodies we stockpile in the vantry – our customized snack-packed shelving unit in the van that can withstand all manner of bumps and swerves!

we recently got tongue-topical with this tropical treat and cannot get enough in our bloodstream:

if you checked our blood mango levels, they'd fly off the fruity charts! thanks, tradewinds.

with a can that goes the distance, you get a tall drinka delicious in one sky high container. unfortch, it’s so tasty, you’re likely to suck it down before you get to the next exit!

even our pet owl wants a taste. get yer feathered behind out of our stash, mr. owl!

keep on snackin’ til the breaka breaka dawn!

love,

mango molly

double moon month!

Posted on August 31, 2012, 7:10 am by Molly

hey sky-watchers! tonight we get a second chance at turning into…

michael j. fox!

keep your ears tuned for howling because not only is it a full moon this eve, it’s a…

blue moon! we put a bird on it.

what exactly is a blue moon you are wondering because you’re kind of curious? it’s when a month has 2 full moons. there is some controversy about this definition and if you are more curious than me in mooning over the finer details, read this. there is something romantic and mysterious about a blue moon, perhaps because it’s pretty rare and you usually don’t pay attention to it but when you do it’s a little bit exciting. remember this?

bruce n' cybill AKA maddie and david cracked cases at the blue moon detective agency. i loved this show and cannot remember a single plot line. i just know as a kid i wanted these two to get together so badly.

so salute the moon tonight, cuz you won’t see another blue one until 2015! which is many moons away.

let chris isaak’s swoony croon to the moon sweep you away in this clip art heavy tribute:

happy BM!

love,

molly

Unforgettable Forecasts: Prince Chaaahls True Career Revealed!

Posted on May 11, 2012, 12:10 pm by Molly

Hey non-blue bloods! The van took a hop, skip and a WHUMP! over the atlantic to catch a most royal weather event – a verified prince delivering the forecast for Scotland!

Born to forecast! So sad he ended up being a prince instead. Why, universe, whyyyyy?

yes, it’s true! his highness, prince chaz, fulfilled his dream of saying things like “outbreaks of rain” and “wet, windy conditions” on the bbc. outbreak of clouds? more like outbreak of WHY IS PRINCE CHARLES DOING THE WEATHER? because he owns england and probably scotland, that’s why!

two things i love here: he takes a moment of solitude to study the clicker before he gets started, and he wisecracks about bad weather at his vakay spot, balmoral. and also, everything he says sounds dipped in the snoots. that’s three things!

tgif,

amirite?,

love,

molly
