Softies Central

Hey, when are we having new softies pix?

I've been a bad blogger, I know. But I have an excuse - I'm moving from New York City to Los Angeles in two weeks and besides all the moving stuff, I have the day job and some book stuff going on, so I've been busy! I'm going to take a teeny break from posting until after I move - check back mid-December for new softies.

Meanwhile, a friend reminded me about the Mr. Toast guy and his hilarious food softies. Here's a picture of Mr. Toast in his kitchen in Los Angeles! Looks sunny, yeh!

Little Jack Horner has a BUNCH of friends and they're all taking time out of their busy day to make signs and take photos for JH, who is in the Holiday Smorgasboard category for his pie-eating-ness

Just a few more hours of voting.

Voting questions

I've gotten a few questions today about voting for the Little Cotton Rabbits' Christmas Pudding softie....That softie is a finalist in the Holiday Smorgasboard category. If you go to the voting site (see the link in the earlier post today) you will be able to vote for one softie in each category, including the Christmas Pudding.  There is no separate link to just that category. I hope this clears up any confusion.

A Day and a Half to vote

Voting ends on Tuesday at noon (NYC-time). VOTE HERE.
