Many thanks go out to poor Chad who had to clean up Slinky Madness the following morning.

    Willy is so smart! He worked hard for his cabbage.

    Hi, Anna!
    I thought Ms Honey B wanted the fanny pack, didn’t realize there was cabbage in it.
    Aren’t you afraid of stretching out the slinkies!?
    Mave seems to be the quitest thinker

    This is so neat! Is there a particular reason you use cabbage?

      It’s just a relatively low calorie snack that you can use in pretty copious amounts!

    WOW, way to go Willy B

    Anna, you are one crazy, creative lady! I love your Slinky and Cabbage Madness decor (sorry Chad!). Very clever and colorful. If Luna ever ever hits that stage where she refuses her veggies, I could see revamping this concept. Talk about making food fun!

    I am blown away by their dexterity. Willy B and Honey B didn’t miss a beat thinking their way through the problem and getting to the cabbage quickly. When I saw the fanny pack I just about screamed with laughter knowing Honey B would do anything for that stylish accessory. I hope she wore it after she ate the cabbage.

    As long as I live, I’ll n e v e r stop being in awe of the broad spectrum of chimp intelligence…

    Silly Question :
    Seeing all this slinky madness made me think about the early days when Willy B first arrive with the gals. His ‘Slinky Moves’ were so darn funny, the way he would place the slinky on his foot and kick it backwards. Does he still enjoy playing with his slinky?

    • Anna says

      He does enjoy a good slinky from time to time but it hasn’t been quite as intense a passion lately 🙂
