do you like my monkey?
Isn't he the cutest thing?
This is my new monkey...as yet unnamed...& he's actually on the front of a little throw pillow. (Cutest thing ever.) And around his neck is a blue eye pendant, said to deflect the Evil Eye.
I love monkeys & this pillow is so soft! Both were gifts from a close writer friend of mine when we got together a weekend or so ago to do lunch. (Thank you, Joanne! :-D)
Of course, I can never actually use the pillow for anything other than decoration. Because A.) the monkey sticks out & would be rather uncomforable under your head or face, & B.) it's just too darn cute to get all dirty or grungy. Nope, it's just going to be my favorite new decorative pillow, for my bed or maybe the couch.
The necklace, however, I have a feeling I'll be getting quite a bit of use out of. You never know when someone might try to give you the Evil Eye, & I want to be able to deflect any curses that might come winging my way. :-P
