This is my Crayola 150-count Telescoping Crayon Tower with Sharpener. It just arrived from Amazon today, and I’m pretty much the happiest girl on Earth.

Last week I went to Target to buy necessities for my new house such as towels, toothpaste, storage bins and, of course, crayons. I’ve been really into coloring lately. I picked up this 120-count box, and went home. A day later, I went to use my new crayons and discovered that I’d been had. I had assumed this was your standard big box of crayons, you know, the kind that has every known Crayola color in it. Wrong. I opened the box and therein lay 2 smaller, 60-count boxes. Of all the same colors. Why would anyone want such a thing?? Naturally I had to return the crayons to Target, and thus began my search for the real deal. Which led me to the beauty pictured above. And as soon as I saw it, I had to buy it. I mean, it’s a CRAYON TOWER. Plus, this is the largest set of crayons Crayola makes. And I’m about to pose a truly philosophical question to you guys: What in the heck did I do before I had glitter crayons in my life??
