Little Smoot's 15 Minutes of Fame

Little Smoot is enjoying her 15 minutes of fame. A few months ago she asked me to take a picture of her with her 3 million Webkinz (that's only a slight exaggeration) so we could send it to a magazine that showcases a few kids with their collections in each edition.

Frankly, we had forgotten all about it since we sent the picture back in August, and hadn't heard anything back from the folks at Plushie Pals magazine. But yesterday friends of hers at school said they saw her picture, so she and I began an two-hour odyssey in an attempt to find a store that had the magazine in stock.

After scouring a few locations that normally have it on their shelves, we finally found it at Barnes & Noble. Or possibly Borders. I always get those two confused. Of course we had to dodge the paparazzi at every store.

Anyway, if you happen to stumble upon the new Plushie Pals magazine (Christmas edition), you'll see Little Smoot surrounded by her little friends on page 15.
