Creepy Crawlers!

Remember Creepy Crawlers? Those rubbery, multi-colored bugs?

In our 2nd grade classroom swap meets, they were the gold standard, man. 

I traded some for a set of real spurs (we had just gotten a horse and I wanted to be a cowboy!) 

I still have a vintage Creepy Crawler oven. I should make some for Halloween, but as you'll see in the photos, I have plenty of the live version around here...

Multi-colored at that!

I wish I still had the spurs. What did I do with them? 

Probably traded them for more creepy crawlers...

Sigh.

(Sorry there were so many of that guy, but I just love him! He's a combination of all of the dragonflies I've photographed this year. Amazing! I just love looking at him!)
