i was enjoying
(silk, silk yarns and sari yarns), when i stopped short.
on the screen in front of me was bright yellow soffsilk for spinning.
it was called, of all things, ‘funky monkey’.
my head immediately ran to
‘chunky monkey’, which used to be one of my
two favorite ben & jerry ice cream flavors.
needless to say, the color had my attention
and i began to wonder ‘why’ the color had that name.
honestly, i expected something to do with bananas.
i clicked to see and found an explanation
which tickled my funny bone and had me
grinning for days.
because under
the soffsilk colorway
‘funky monkey’
it simply said:
‘if i had a monkey, i’d want it to be funky’.
and now you’re smiling, too.
no use trying to hide it from me.
i just know you are.

I have wanted a monkey of my own since I was a little girl!!! And yes, I’d love it to be a funky monkey. Although mine might be blue… 🙂 probably.
my kids sing this song ‘everybody wants a baby kangaroo. yours is pink, but mine is blue’. so fun.
I think I’d like that song too! 🙂
found the funny song here. the kangaroo bit is at the very end. it’s cute.
OOOOOHHHHHH everybody’s got a water buffalo, everybody’s got a water buffalo……
samm goes off singing into the sunset..
Happy Mothers’ Day Talitha!
