If You Aren't Already Convinced I'm a Dork . . .

Stop reading.

Because in the Sager household, the animals have all been named for children's book characters. That means the cats - Madeline, Charlie Bucket, Veruca and Curious George.

And it means the dog - Olivia, named for the pig I consider a less bourgeois version of Eloise. And now my dog's namesake is getting a TV show (so it has nothing to do with us, but hey, our little bit of extra love for Ian Falconer's star piglet has got to count for something!).

Olivia the Pig hits Nickelodeon on Monday, and she's got new episodes airing all week. Want a sneak peek at what's in store? Jillian and I reviewed the premiere for Strollerderby - so check it out here!

yeah! thanks for sharing this b/c i had no idea. i keep buying mia olivia books and she does appreciate them but let's be honest, her mommy is getting a lot out of them too. i hope the show features the one thing i love best about the books - "real" artwork made accessible for kids. but why don't i see anything about it on Nick.com?

I realized I had to add one of these because people let their minds run away with them sometimes. Wait, where was I?

The reviews I put up on this site are NOT paid for by any company. They come from my little ol' head. Some of the products I found myself - on the 'net, at the store, or from other moms. Some were sent my way by publicists. Usually they didn't fit the mold of another project I was working on, but I thought they were so cool I couldn't help sharing!

As for what happens to the products I didn't care for - you'll never know! Because I won't write about them on here. So if you see it, I liked it. 'Nuff said!
