Behind the curtain

Little Man: “Do you presume to criticize the great Oz? You ungrateful creatures.”

The little man behind the curtain was successful because everyone wanted to believe he was a wizard.

He wasn’t.

To keep myself busy other than when I write, I’ve been preparing for another big organizing project that kicked into serious gear today. Time to catalog and photograph and organize my doll collection.

I’m beginning with my boxed dolls, and today when I took out my 1992 Mattel Little Debbie Barbie, I remembered again something that struck me years ago.

The 2007 McDonald’s Happy Meal Madame Alexander Dorothy Gale doll (here with her Wizard of Oz ruby slippers) looks like she grew up to push Little Debbie products. I don’t eat a lot of sweets, but I’m partial to Nutty Bars (aka Nutty Buddy) and Swiss Cake Rolls.
