Frog of the Day

Avon - Hot Frog

Another very cold day - even the Frog Wrangler doesn't want to stay outside for very long. The novelty of the snow has worn off for her - she does her business as fast as possible and makes a mad dash for the door and her blanket. I tried to vacuum the house yesterday but was frustrated with the suction. I finally just took the filter out and then it worked fine. Of course I'm breathing dirt particles at a phenomenal rate but at least the carpet is clean!

This frog collectible is a plush from Avon. Made by Commonwealth Novelty Toy Company. The plush is called Hot Frog and is part of their Hot Hoppers collection. It is made of soft velour and stands 10 1/2 inches high. Style number 234-638. It has a playback mechanism so that you can record an 8 second message and then play it back. This plush dates to Easter 2006.
