The Piggly News

You saw our last post, right? now our pigs have their own paper!

The First Edition

This edition, this edition you are reading right now, is the single most important edition in the history of The Piggly News. Why? Because it is the very first edition of The Pigly News.

This paper is about two normal Joe guinea pigs, Archie and Frankie. But they can make quite some headlines! They can also teach you, make you laugh, and keep you on your toes, squealing for more!

Know your pigs

Archie and Frankie: Two guinea pigs with unique personalities . Here are their top 5 faves in food:

1. lettuce

2. blueberries

3. beans
4. sweet pepper
   
5. parsley

Archie: The gentleman

Archibald is a respectful young pig. He sits on your chest quietly and peacefully. He will not eat while sitting on you.

Frankie: The adventurer

Frankie won't sit stilllllll... ah! got him! He'll- hey! try... to... yes! Run away and- hey! hmmmm...gotcha!! hide. He goes- hey! stop it! chirp week chirp chirp! gotha! Well, long story short, he's an adventurer. Hey!!!

Guinea pigs!!!!

This is Archie.

Economy Candy!

Yesterday,we went to a candy store with sooo much candy, it's tempting to go there every weekend! Economy Candy has pretty much any candy you want.

Lollipops, Pez, Tootsie rolls, Smarties, bubble and chewing gum, gummies [too many types to name], and, my personal favorite, JELLY BEANS! Imagine a sweet or fruity taste. Soda? Have it. Mango? Yes. Cinnamon?! Surprisingly, yes.

Not all of it was officially candy. Wasabi peas, wasabi peanuts, rice crackers, roasted peas, and fruit and nut mixes.

Economy Candy, I have to say, is the best candy store I know!

Yes We Did

November 4th, 2008:

Isabella says: "We did the coolest thing ever. We voted. I never knew the real voting process before. Obama is a really nice guy and I hope he adopts a good puppy."

Jonathan says: "Voting is so awesome. I want to do that when I grow up. I am so glad I voted for Obama."

Happy Birthday, Auntie Liz!!

In your honor, the artistic geniuses who created The Ribbiting Santas bring you a heart-pounding action-adventure mystery (with musical interlude):

Florida!!

We've got end-of-school-year shows, and a slew of new Ellenville frogs, to report on, but we're going to skip over that for now, because we just came back from a WONDERFUL trip to Naples, Florida with Auntie Liz and Uncle Joseph.

What did we do? And what did we like best? Isabella and Jonathan report (Isabella is reading something she wrote while still in Naples):
