Hermit Crabs

On Sunday I put the hermit crabs out to play in the backyard cause it was sooooo hot and humid. They loved it.

Hiding on the left is Ted and on the right is Rerun.

This is Rerun on Sunday...

And this is Rerun on Monday! Doesn't he look super fancy in his new shell?

Anyone else love hermit crabs? Can I share this very important tip...never give them tap water. Use bottled water or dechlorinate tap water with drops. No one ever shared this info with me, and when I was growing up...pre-internet, there wasn't a lot of info out there about their care. Now I have happy and healthy Hermies and you can too :)

Now back to Plushie business...

On Saturday, C.Hikn Bone' and I will be set up out front of Ripple City Artworks during the Uptown Umbrella Market. I will have all of my new goodies, including the Owls! C.Hikn Bone' will be grillin' & chillin' and will have tons of sauce for sale! We hope to see yall there.

Ripple City is on Evans St. in Uptown Greenville,NC

Amy Steinberg is Coming to Greenville, NC!

You must come out THIS Friday to see Amy.

Lookie, real pirates with my sock monkeys...that's me in the middle.





Super cool pirate statues that will be placed all around Greenville,NC.
