After limping along for a few months, my valiant six-year-old computer finally reached the Point of No Return. It might have--just a thought--had something to do with the 28,000 photographs stored on its hard drive. Anyway, I have been transitioning to a newer computer over the past few weeks. I knew this would be a challenge (let's just say I'm not someone who thrives on change...) but it was trickier than I expected. The biggest hurdle was to move from my ancient iPhoto software to a fancy modern photo processing program. You might notice a few changes and quirks as I continue to get used to all of these new-fangled things.
I probably should have written a few shorter reviews as I got accustomed to my new set-up, but a side-effect of my aversion to change is that I pretend everything is going to stay the same...and I don't plan ahead. I just stubbornly do what I would have done in a never-changing world. Basically, I was really looking forward to writing this
Frozen Fever comparison review and didn't want to compromise. So...it took me a while to finish.
Both Mattel and the Disney Store made Anna and Elsa dolls for the
Frozen Fever short film that accompanied the recent
Cinderella movie. I loved this short film--especially when I was watching it in a movie theater full of little kids. The giggling was contagious. I really wanted to have a doll souvenir from this cute film--like I do for most Disney movies. I typically prefer the Disney Store versions of movie-themed dolls, but when I saw that Mattel had changed their
Frozen dolls for this release (Anna has a really different face mold) I thought it would be fun to do another comparison.
