I love to hear others story ! Jared, your first-bear story is sweet ! 
Do you still have him ?

Tami and Crissi thanks for sharing your photo ! ! 

I had no ted as a child..  Me and my little sis had a bunny instead....

I was a blankie girl when I was very small and here is my poor blankie story ....
I had the little yellow blankie wich I don't remember where did I get it from but
one day my mom took my blankie away and said "sorry honey, I will buy you new one .."
but I refuse to give it up and demand to have my blankie back. then she said
"but did you know this is not real blankie, this is something to polishes dad's car,
it's made of sheep skin and I can wash this"
then my head went blank....
SHEEP SKIN !? DID I KILL THE SHEEP !?
I cried harder for the sheep and
I never ask mom to buy me a new blankie.....

Hi Daphne,  your  Bear Club sounds so fun !!! I wish I was the member too !! 
I tried cheap(good value)synthetics (before I met mohair)and  I thought
I'll not going back to synthetics till I met this gorgeous synthetics !!!!  I saw our TT members using
gorgeous synthetics for their bear and I was so shocked because they ware so fantastic.
I had to buy the same type of synthetics and I really love them !!
the color, the texture, softness, heavy dense are great. I haven't a time to work one them yet,
but I definitely love to try it soon !!  :dance:

↑
Hello Kathleen!  I'm not expert of synthetics but I think some of fur has weak backing and some fur
has good strong baking but I never met the fur with cotton backing as mohair has.
I think someone can help your better than me....... :redface:

Hi Kim,
it's so great to hear from you!
we missed you... :hug:

My husband has ulcerative colitis and
he is on diet(for medication reason).
He eats allot of fish, Boiled Tofu and also  vegetables but need to be boiled well(or steam) till it gets softly the I chop them up. 
Fresh Vegetables are TABOO for him....

I know follow thing is may not be good for
you but this is little I know about Iron and other....

IRON: Soy been, Tuna(red meat), egg
COPPER: Soy been.  nuts.
ZINC: Tofu, skim milk.
MAGNESIUM: Flatfish. Salmon, Bonito(fish)
CALCIUM:Tofu, skim milk,sesame

I heard that absorption of calcium improves when you take  magnesium and calcium together.
...

Can you drink vegetable juice ?
If yes, try mist the soy-milk with
vegetable juice. it taste better.
for my hubby,he can't drink cold drinks so I make sure that drink  temperature is "room temperature".
He can drink this only when he is in good condition.

I hope some one can give you
better recipe... :redface:

hugs
Marie
