PERSONAL FUN FACT written by my sister: This is Dorothy--She was a generous gift in July 2024, she is AWESOME, and she is in great shape! She reminds me of one of our favorite Cabbies--Joy Irene--because of her golden blonde hair, but she's so much more vibrant! In July of 2024, two packages from two very generous guys showed up at our door two days in a row! (The guys mailed them at the same time, but the boxes got separated in the mail.) Because there had been some strange thing with tracking, the generous senders actually messaged Shelly the day before the first box showed up and asked if we'd gotten anything. So, it was, therefore, not a total shock to find a giant box. Box one had a note saying there was ANOTHER box. Box two had a LOT of Cabbage Patch Kids! Which was AMAZING! Shelly and I had been LOOKING for more Cabbies. (The lady who regularly has more than one at our local flea market wants ten dollars or more each--I think we paid fifteen for Nathan--and most of them aren't interesting enough to pay more than a few dollars for.) But hadn't had success in a while. Suddenly, we'd been inundated with Cabbies! (Coleco Cabbies hold onto a lot of odor too, so the studio smelled a little weird for a couple days.) What on earth were we going to name them all? A few names jumped out at us, then Shelly suggested borrowing names from our guinea pigs! In the end, this girl was left with "Dorothy" because the "gorgeous" one had been named Penelope, the "monkey face" girl Poppy, the "dirty" one had to be Delilah, and the quirky Cornsilk doll was Winnie (our guinea pig Winnie died before we got these dolls, but her name was PERFECT for the Cabbage in question). However, I think Dorothy FITS her. A brunette would've been a more natural choice for the name, because of Wizard of Oz, but I really do think this girl is a Dorothy. She's like our guinea pig--sweet, vibrant, bright eyed, and lively! She's a real charmer! I definitely feel like she cleaned up better than some of the others and they all cleaned up really well! We're guessing these dolls (who I think the guys thrifted with us in mind) all originally (or most of them) came from the same person's collection. Most were wearing attire that was likely original (all the dates checked out in terms of dolls' stamps and years outfits were used) and all had the look of either being owned by a collector or gently loved by a careful kid. No one was totaled--although a few were really dirty (especially Delilah). But sometimes, even if dolls were manufactured around the same time and owned by the same person, some dolls just age better. (Take our childhood GOTs, Angela and Valerie--same home, bought within a month of each other, but Angela aged so much better.) I'm thinking Dorothy is just one of those lucky girls who fared well over time. Her almost forty years have not dulled her sparkle! She's a gem! If only we could all be like Dorothy--wake up, roll out of bed, and still look gorgeous!
Though this picture doesn't convey the beauty I saw from the plane this green patchwork farmland along side the brown mountain divide was very striking. In fact this patch work came up later in a building I saw downtown for which I'm pretty certain this might have been the inspiration for the design.

22.5 lb 6-8 yo black and white cocker spaniel. He came in severely matted and was scheduled to be euthanized for lack of space. A kind soul pulled him to a kennel to save his life. He has been boarded for over 4 months now. 2 years Rabies vaccination 7/10/09. He interacts well with other dogs and people, and loves to romp and play.
Update 7/12: Patches went to church this morning - socializing with a lot of children and adults. The sermon was about promises - the 2 different kinds (relationship and performance-related). I thought that Patches was the right dog for this sermon. He is about forgiveness, and both relationship and performance promises. A few interested people from the church - the question being whether he wants love and attention more, or exercise more. Some of the people who want to adopt have a backyard, but have broken bones in their feet and can't walk very well. Patches doesn't know commands yet, jumps up on people, and will need work with house-training. A really nice disposition both with other dogs and people.
Patches went into a temporary foster home for 2 days this afternoon. We need an adoptive or foster home by Tuesday afternoon, or he goes back to WV.
I took this at the famous Bates Nut Farm Pumpkin Patch. At the farm you can experience the fall harvest with the colors, scents, tastes and sounds found on their 100 acres. You can also shop for pumpkins, squash and gourds in a variety of shapes, colors and sizes. Bates Nut Farm also has numerous activities including hay rides, straw maze, pony rides and farm zoo.

HEAD MOLD: 1978, 1983; #9 "monkey face"
PERSONAL FUN FACT written by my sister: This lovely lady is our first, and currently only, doll to use the "monkey face." I love how Coleco Cabbies use so many molds, and yet they still look equally Cabbage Patch. Does that make sense? Anyway, Shelly suggested borrowing names from our guinea pigs to name Cabbie girls when we were gifted MANY (and one adorable little boy) in one go in July 2024! I said, "The monkey face doll has to be Poppy." I don't know why, considering that one of Dorothy's nicknames is "Monkey Fat." Maybe it's because the name collectors use for this mold is just plain ridiculous and so is our guinea pig Poppy, with her mohawk. Poppy the doll is pretty silly! She's in really good shape. She reminds me of our Wendy, who is also from 1985 and green eyed. Wendy's hair is more strawberry colored. It's got a rusty hue to it. Poppy is in overall nicer shape than Wendy, and I don't even mean just because she has her outfit. Both have very mild Cabbie Pox, but Poppy's are even milder. And Wendy just has a forlorn look, even after all the love and care, that Poppy doesn't have. (It doesn't help that Napoleon the chinchilla bit poor Wendy's nose! That was the last time he was anywhere near a doll.) Poppy is more vibrant. But there's something a little silly about her, which is why the name fits so well!
I decided that vitamins delivered by patch is good but this would be great. And who knows, perhaps with this delvery system it would become over the counter instead of prescription?

* The tin patch Oak tree
Known as ' the Tilford Oak tree '
Thought to be well over 800 years old this oak tree, on the far side of the road on the north side of Tilford Green, was for long considered to be the finest in Surrey. Indeed William Cobbett (1763-1835), a native of nearby Farnham, called it by far the finest tree that he had ever seen in his life.

This is the last photo I took of Patches. A little over a week after this photo she was put to sleep. She deteriorated very quickly. I'm cursed with cats as of late. She was only 9.
My daughter is still looking for her. They were good buddies. This clip shows the most aggressive moment in Patches' short lived relationship with Ella:
