I don't know if it was a joke on a show or an actual commercial, but I looked up a few nights ago to see on tv a Golden Girls Chia Pet being sold,.,,there was Sophia with "Chia Hair."

 

it was funny!

You know what else is just as foolish, that black lipstick or green lipstick, that turns pink when you put it on.  That used to be a gadget going around for Christmas when I was a youngster.  It was sold at the local 5&10-cent store for $0.50/tube.  I think some wiseacre is selling it on QVC for a ridiculous price.  I wish I'd thought of that.  That is an easy scam. I could be rich by now.

I have had two Chia Pets over the years.  When my kids were little someone gave them a Spongebob Squarepants one and last Christmas my DH gave my a Bob Ross one.  They were cute but both began to grow mold after awhile.

Our first Chia pet was the dog and it grew a little bit.

 

Years later for our kids I bought the Spongebob and Shrek one but

really no success.

 

Won't buy them again. But after Christmas they will be 50% off in stores

like Rite Aid, CVS.
