September’s Eight

The Dolls Project: Almond Tea and Marzipanda, Plum Pudding and Elderberry Owl and the coveted Berrycycle.

Almond Tea and Plum Pudding and ding dang Elderberry Owl, and Berry Tricycle

Old tropes have a way of complicating of nostalgia. For instance, intelligent beings of yore had a certain look assigned to their features. Glasses, baggy clothes, general air of eagerness to learn.

In reality Owls, are not all that intelligent. For instance, one killed and ate our beloved cat Little Bea and if that owl knew anything at all, it would have known that Bea WAS NOT FOOD. Let’s not call “that” owl “smart”.

Elderberry Owl is, in this 1980’s iteration, simply trying to look too intelligent to be the type to eat cats. Don’t let the vibrancy of his adorable glasses and book fool you. He might look smart to some but should you or anyone you know be missing a mouser, rotate your gaze and rest it squarely on “not smart” Elderberry Owl.

Plum Pudding: No one can really explain why Plum Pudding is all the money. Maybe it’s because Plum Pudding is a fluid character in the history of Strawberry Shortcake. This short lived iteration Plum Pudding looks both fun and super smart in her original outfit, honestly, the owl drags her whole vibe down.

Almond Tea This girl is one of those dolls that wants it all because she has it all. She wants to be sold with this tricycle because she looks uniquely happy riding it and once you see it, you always see it. She’ll do anything for her tricycle, so don’t play a prank and run off with it. Like, don’t.

But maybe she’s learned the value of sharing. Try putting other dolls on the tricycle. See the Brown and Moon Store for more Strawberry shortcake dolls.

Sold together because they make a wicked team:
