alligators all around

We are listening to Really Rosie by Carole King. Despite that I haven't heard this in, oh, twenty years, I still remember and love it.

I can't wait to hear the Chicken Soup With Rice song.

heh
it would seem really silly to trade mp3's of a children's TV show that was on before either of us were born, but at some point i could at least rip that track for you or something... i found this CD pretty randomly so i don't know how widely available it is anyway.

That was one of my sister and I's favorite albums growing up. We could entertain ourselves for a long time acting out each song.

This sappy childhood memory is over unless you bring the music to Sunday dinner when we are both present ;-)

i will... whenever that is!

i don't remember acting out the songs or anything but i remember things like being terrified of choking to death on a bone in chicken soup for years. and my mom used to threaten that i would get eaten by a lion if i said "i don't care" to things. and stuff.

Hm, does that work for "I don't know" too?

I have that album on record somewhere. With the words, and the illustrations. I also have (somewhere, I have no clue if it's here) several small books with the poems/songs in them.

And now I'm singing "I'm really Rosie, and I'm Rosie real. You'd better believe me, I'm a great big deal.... I'm Rosie! Believe me!"
