Lots of Yetis??! Yikes! I mean, Hooray!
Hey, Friends! Your adorable Yeti here. I know sometimes I get a bad rap for all my money-loving hobbies. Some people would praise me for finding my passion (fortune hunting). Some people would applaud my pursuing a goal with so much effort and focus. But, NO, I just get a lot of grief for my ideas. Okay, so not all of them work out (stealing the Mona Lisa, for example). But who’s perfect? I'm learning from my mistakes. Just witness my single-minded devotion to this important cause & see if you remain unmoved.
I recently heard from my cuddly cousin Snowbound, who lives on the North Shore. See how cute my family is?
Anyway, she and some of my other relatives found out about this terrific pie shop called the Rustic Inn Café. So, they went in to have some tasty pie (naturally) and then something terrible happened. Not to say “I told you so,” but they should have paid attention to the name of the town. IF you decide to enter “Castle Danger,” then anything can happen. In this case, my cute cousins got snatched right up and put on a shelf with price tags on their ears!!! Although we would look cute with earrings, this is a little over the top.
I had to spring into action and do something immediately.
See, this is where some of you are thinking that I was thinking “I could make a lot of money this way.” Hah! I can surprise you. Instead, I’m happy to give away all of my own hard-earned money* to free my poor cousins who are being wrongfully held (away from the pies they deserved) and trapped on a gift-store shelf.
If I can just reach my paw in far enough, I’ll be able to… just a little…. grrr. Not going to work.
This works better, but it takes way too long. I’m a busy and important bear- I’ve got things to do, people to see. You know how it is with fame!
AAAHHHH, the sweet smell of money. I could just sit here all day and breathe it in. MMMMM. Oh, wait, what was I doing? Oh, yeah, gotta get this out of the jar!
Nope. No good- my big feet aren’t built for this.
Maybe I can tip the jar over when I’m halfway in it. Is this a good idea? We’ll find out.
It wasn’t a good idea. Didn’t work at all. But it gave me a good idea. Tipping a jar full of money is really fun. Try it sometime! (Be careful where you put all your paws, though, they can get squooshed.
At last, the sweet smell of victory! Brilliant plan, I know. So, here’s me with a jar full of my money*. And I managed to talk some friends in the Cities to take it north with them and free my Yeti friends. Thanks, team! I owe you one. Or, I will when you return with the cute cuddliness in tow.
*Note to our careful readers- Yeti is very liberal with other people’s money. If she had control of her own cash, we would have some other problems on our hands. In this case, the jar of money was liberated from two kids we know. They probably didn’t know that Yeti took it... But, don’t worry- she’s great at stealing things; she’s just not very good at escaping. As you’ll see here…
Speaking of videos about Yetis, you should really check out this one from the Okee Dokee Brothers called “The Abominable Yeti”. It’s about one of my famous relatives. (And, fun fact, it’s the great-great-aunt for whom I was named.)
