Snarky Bandersnatches
Browsing through my Archie McPhee catalog this morning and ran into these adorable little guys. (I finished my book yesterday – I always need something to read).
“Decorate your digits with these engaging little bandersnatches …”
They had me at ‘engaging little bandersnatches’. I so loved the word, of course, had to Google it.
Answer: A Bandersnatch is a fictional creature from Lewis Carroll’s 1872 novel Through the Looking-Glass and 1874 poem “The Hunting of the Snark”.
(If he’s still hunting for snark, I have some. But I’m trying to be nice today).
I loved these things as a child! OK, who am I kidding, I still love them. I love them so much I may have to shell out $9.95 for a set of 16.
