Say Hi to Fernando!

April 15, 2008 by WendyB

Look who arrived by mail today: Fernando Von Bakonstein, aka the iHog.

“Hello, bloggers!”

He’s already met Gigi.

“Someone needs a pedicure.”

And he paid a condolence call to Henry, who is trapped in an e-collar again.

“You’re right, Henry. This thing sucks.”

Thanks to McGone of International House of Blogcakes for generously sharing the iHog. I will try to show him a good time!

    You got me! No seriously, I made BF read your post about the new sterling Boleyn necklaces very carefully. “See?” , I said, “affordable!”
    Also, your new piggy is adorable but after growing up with a lot of un-snipped doggies over my lifetime, I didn’t realize what the second pic was at first… I was shocked!:)

    Oh my! Rest assured that Henry was snipped at the ASPCA before I even met him. He often ends up in “the hat” because he has a deformed paw that he likes to lick so that it gets infected.

    I hope you let him wear your jewelry and shoes. Be a good hostess.

    Fab! By the way, Do you ever do dog jewelry? I looked at your beautiful pieces, but couldn’t see anything doggy? x

    Hysterical! Will you PLEASE take him to Barney’s or Bergdorf’s and have him try on some Louboutins? That would absolutely make my day.
