Auntie Mack Can


Angry birds float in a sea of sky blue, eyebrows scrunched together in Marx-ian angst, tails attached like tiny propellers!  Flying fiascos flung across the screen on slingshots at pigs posing in impossibly funny situations.

The stuff of nightmares, evoking warm smiles and sweet feelings, tucked up carefully by well meaning hands to make a bed.

Loving gestures, sharing sheets and pillows, stuffed animals and toys, the universal sign of innocence and friendship.

Go to visit Gramma, or Uncle Connie, or Auntie Mack and a car ride becomes a storybook experience, go swimming with the dinosaurs, or sleeping with the monkeys and everything is wrapped in love and giggles.

The magical moments of childhood should never be lost or put away for good.  They are the true elixir of youth.  

Auntie Mack can....make the world taste good!
