“What’s that, Little One?”
“My new toy. It’s called a green stick.”
“What’s it taste like?”
“Humm. Let me see.”
“Well?”
“I think it tastes like a margarita.”
“Wait a minute. You have never had a margarita.”
“I know, but I’m thinking a margarita would taste like my green stick.”
“I wonder if the big shots at the toy company know that?”
“Well, if they don’t, then someone ought to tell them.”
“Ya hear that you big shots at the toy company. Marketing pro Twiggy says your green stick should be sold as a margarita flavor.”
“Would get a lot of new users, I’ll bet.”
“I think I’ll stick with the bacon flavors.”
“Of course you will. When the next big thing comes along, you’ll still be taking a nap.”
“Hmmm. Now that you mention it. Hey mom. Open the door, please.”

Lucy doesn’t play with toys too often. She likes to watch Twiggy play. She does pretend to take the toy away but never does. Short answer – No

Monkey has one of these, only it’s red. Probably takes like a Bloody Mary, ha! But seriously, it’s been a good investment — thus far, he hasn’t been able to destroy it like he has some of his other toys … and he seems to like it. Too bad we don’t live closer to you — I can envision him and Twiggy having sword fights with those sticks!

Was it bought for Twiggy? Or, does she take over all toys. She seems to be the one playing with toys when I come visit.
Bacon flavour? You can’t make bacon flavour sticks!
Maybe a bacon flavour slipper.
