    OMG the story of your Miss Piggy paper dolls totally reminded me of a story with me and my husband.... so when we watch "Toy Story 3" he cried like a baby at the end. When he was a kid, his mom would ask him and his brother to get rid of toys they didn't want anymore and they would donate them to children that needed toys. Because my husband is such a sweet guy, he donated his second favorite toy (he couldn't give up his teddy bear, of course). It was a plush Alf doll. He wanted another kid who needed it more to have it. He told me this story after we saw the movie. I knew I had to get him another one. I went onto Ebay... and I didn't realize there were different sizes of Alf dolls, but I started bidding on one, and I just felt like it was the right one. The bidding got intense at the last few seconds, but I won the Alf doll! I gave it to him for one of our anniversaries, and he started crying again -- apparently I had chosen the exact same one that he had given away as a little boy. Anyway sorry for the long comment, but I just had to share that story with you. I love you and I think you're amazing and I wish I lived closer because I feel like we would be besties.

    I LOVE the idea of doing something special at the end of every week in isolation. We need these things to look forward to and to help us through it. Also the Ed/Miss Piggy story might be the sweetest thing I've ever heard ❤️

    I love all spanish accents and lingos! All the differences and idiosyncrasies are beautiful! They each tell a story, give off a distinct characteristic that is unique and beautiful. Even within one country, from estado, pueblo, rancho, to la ciudad, they differ dramatically. ❤️

    Fran, my favorite thing about your videos is I feel like I'm revisiting a show from my childhood. It's so calming and makes me happy just watching. I feel like I'm hanging out with an old friend. I hope that makes sense. It's very nostalgic for me. Also, it's so peaceful to spend time with you.

    So thank you so much for all your love that you put in your work and share it with all these people around the world! I don’t even draw or illustrate but I’m just thankful that you share your world with us!

    But today's Friday, and it went downhill 😂anyways, your videos are so relaxing.

    That gesture while kissing your fingers in order to express how the coffee was great! It's soooooo Italian Fran ☺ Thank you for what you said about the time studying graphic design. It reminds us on the real sense of making art that's far from the thing of working only with the coolest tools around. It's so easy to fall into this fear of not having enough, not using the right tablet and bla bla bla. So now I'm getting back drawing because you've inspired me. Baci from Italy 😚

    I love magnolias too. When we lived in Minnesota, we had a row of them - all different kinds. I didn't know this before I saw a girlfriend do it, but she had taken branches with big buds on them, stuck them in water, and they blossomed INSIDE amazingly! I hadn't know you could do that.

I think it also would show people just what there days are actually like on lockdown and they may be surprised just how much they do. Keep safe and strong xxx

    I actually have a sort of similar story to your Ms. Piggy story. I have a tiny Rosita doll (she was from Sesame Street) that I always had with me, and that I kept in a mint tin. One day our family car was stolen, and my Rosita was in it. I didn't realize immediately that that was the case (I was only eight(ish) years old at the time) and I put missing signs all over the house. Last year I decided to look for her on ebay, and I was finally able to bring her home.

    You know what's interesting...I find myself using my planners more consistently now during these times! I used to struggle with it before, but I honestly feel the need for the planner now because I don't have my daily routine to structure most errands around. I have to structure that routine myself a bit more than before.

    Oh Fran, I share your sadness about losing your Ms.Piggy toys. During a trip with my family when I was 4, I had a Ms.Piggy doll. Back then, they still had a line of phone booths against the wall in airports. I was having so much fun running in and out of them pretending to call people. My parents called me to leave and I just ran to them leaving Ms.Piggy behind. 😢It was definitely a deeply sad memory for me but now, it’s a memory that reminds me of how tender and lovely it is to be a child. 🥰
