<p>Well the Fartie story continues with the little ‘BUTTS” down in Florida.</p>
<p>After our lovely trip to Key West,  the little “BUTTS” were tired and out of wind………now that is a wonder…….BUTT, not to be down too long, it was now time to go visit with some more family and friends and say ….&#8221;Hello&#8221; in our special way</p>
<p>The little “BUTTS” go in style……………</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-large wp-image-375" title="Sandy Van Cromvoirt" src="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/sandy-car-and-scarf-1024x682.jpg" alt="" width="290" height="194" /></p>
<p>Look at “Not Me Mama”….Does she not look at a movie star???????</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-376" title="The Fartie Lady" src="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/sandy-scarf-and-car2-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></p>
<p>Oh yeah……do you think it is time for the little  …..&#8221;BUTTS&#8221; to go &#8220;Hollywood&#8221;?</p>
<p>Would you like to see&#8212;&#8212; “<span style="color: #ff00ff;">The Butts Blow into Hollywood and leave a “BIG” stinky</span>?!!!!!….. Or <span style="color: #ff00ff;">Who&#8217;s the Biggest Butt in Hollywood?</span>”   or…… <span style="color: #ff00ff;">&#8220;The Farties Ladies go glitzy&#8221;?</span></p>
<p>Let me know ….. What would you like to call the little Fartie Family????</p>
<p>We had a lovely time visiting and off we went again cruising the highway of life and enjoying every minute of it….Oh the life of a “BUTT”.</p>
<p>You will not believe this, but as it turned out there were friends of the little “BUTT”  Family staying down in Florida not far from us, so we all went over for a visit.   We all made plans to go out to dinner the next  night to BUBBA&#8217;s, the biggest plate full of RIBS in town!!!!<br />

<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-380" title="accordion player" src="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/accordion-play-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></p>
<p>The next day it was another day in Paradise  ….shopping.  The little &#8220;BUTTS&#8221; need some new duds  for all their up coming appearances…..will tell you all about it in the next blog….&#8221;BUTT&#8221; for now, back to Paradise……</p>
<p>While out shopping, a nice lady asked me again about my Fartie T-Shirt and wondered what  “The Farties” were all about  Well it just so happened,  I had time to tell her.. She was so excited to hear some of the names that she has used with her grandchildren….. Freddie Fartie…Timmy Tootie …Billy Bubbles….even.. Princess Pop  as she has a new granddaughter that goes ..Pop…Pop…Pop….</p>
<p>She loves &#8221; Not Me Mama” because neither of us admits to anything!!!!  …….LOL</p>
<p>She was happy to learn of  the web site <a href="http://www.thefarties.com/">www.thefarties.com</a> where she could order Fartie stuff and I gave her a Fartie magnet to keep on her fridge.</p>
<p>As we were leaving she said……&#8221;My grandchildren will think <span style="color: #ff00ff;">I AM THE COOLEST Grandma</span> when they get all the “Meet the Farties” stuff for their birthdays&#8221;..</p>
<p>Once again “Meet the Farties” brightened up someone’s day while working at their job. &#8212; Let’s hear it for the “BUTTS”!</p>
<p>Have you heard of the rock group…. &#8220;Queen&#8221; and their fantastic song &#8221; We are the Champions&#8221;?………well The “BUTT” theme song could be …………….&#8221;<span style="color: #ff00ff;">We Are the &#8220;Butts</span>&#8221; –&#8221;Can you hear Us? LOL …</p>
<p>Well the time came too soon to return home again and get back to the “Fartie” business.</p>
<p>Here are some of my little &#8220;Fartie&#8221; Fans and they are excited about what is coming next …..</p>
<p><a href="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/little-fartie-fans.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-381" title="little Fartie fans" src="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/little-fartie-fans-300x199.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a></p>
<p>There is a lot happening!  I  want to let all the Fartie Fans know that I have started the second little “Meet the Farties” book introducing the one …the only …. Magnificent Mary&#8212;&#8212;-Billy Bubbles&#8217; older sister.</p>
<p>There is  Billy Bubbles&#8221; younger brother,  Quiet Quinn &#8212;you know the little guy in the corner that quietly lets you know he is there!!!</p>
<p>Billy Bubbles&#8217;  Dad, &#8220;Walk away Willie&#8221; &#8212;&#8211; he just &#8220;drops&#8221; and &#8220;walks&#8221;&#8212;His motto is &#8212;Just keep walking……&#8217;  and his Mommy &#8212;The &#8220;Mighty Maggie&#8221;……Mighty is right!!!        Just repeat&#8230; Do not stand behind the mighty &#8220;M&#8221;.</p>
<p>Another treat are the little &#8220;BUTTS&#8217;&#8221; Grandparents, who will make an appearance in the story too.</p>
<p>Grandpa and Grandma Flatulence –that what we called them –but –their names are Fred Sr. and Flo ….Freddy Fartie is named after his Grandpa. We just love our Grandpa and Grandma Flatulence so much. They always let the little ones stay up later and watch a funny movie and have popcorn.</p>
<p>I have lots of exciting Fartie Stuff coming up and I will be telling you about  it in the next blog..</p>

<p><strong> </strong></p>
<h2><span style="color: #008000;">Go West Young &#8220;Farties&#8221;, That&#8217;s Key West</span></h2>
<p>Well the little &#8220;BUTTS&#8221; are back home from their exciting trip to Florida&#8212;&#8211; &#8220;&#8221;BUT&#8221;" &#8212;&#8211;did they have a good time!  Let me tell you about the adventure.</p>
<p>First of all this little &#8220;BUTT&#8221;  went to the airport and was just minding her own &#8220;BUT business&#8221; when  a lovely lady came over and asked what the &#8220;Farties&#8221; was about when she saw my &#8220;Fartie&#8221; T-shirt and &#8220;Fartie&#8221; hat.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-large wp-image-360" title="Sandy Van Cromvoirt" src="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Sandy-leaving-for-florida-646x1024.jpg" alt="" width="302" height="479" /></p>
<p>Oh –But- did I have fun explaining the little &#8220;BUTT&#8221; Family and all their gassy adventures.  She laughed and giggled and just loved the &#8220;Not Me Mama&#8221; character  and said &#8212;&#8221;of course we don&#8217;t&#8221; ! &#8212;- As we chatted, this lovely lady wanted to know how she could get a &#8220;Meet the Farties&#8221; –book and a T-shirt –for her&#8212;HUSBAND!!!&#8212;-  LOL</p>
<p>I gave her a Fartie card and a fridge magnet ( I always carry them with me)  and told her she could purchase these and many other items on our website <a href="http://www.thefarties.com">www.thefarties.com</a>.</p>
<p>She asked me how she could stay in touch with &#8220;The Farties&#8221;,  so I told her to become a &#8220;FAN&#8221; of the Farties&#8221; on <a href="http://www.facebook.com/thefarties">Facebook</a> and then she will get all &#8220;The Farties&#8221; news !</p>
<p>Then I chatted with another lady who asked me what my seat number was.  I looked and said &#8220;I&#8217;m not sure&#8230;my boarding pass has 2 stars and no seat number on it&#8221;.  So away I trotted up to the attendant and asked if he could help me with my seat number.   Well he certainly did!!! All the way up to &#8220;First Class&#8221;!  That&#8217;s right –the Fartie Lady did&#8212;“<span style="color: #ff00ff;">Gas with Class</span>” all the way to Florida &#8212;&#8211; This trip so far was proving to be a Fluffy Fabulous experience   ….the Fartie Lady was very happy!!!.</p>
<p>Oh yes, I was waited on…fed and served drinks (too many)……. sooooooooooo….I had a rip roaring good time telling them all about my little family of &#8220;BUTTS&#8221; and their gassy adventures.  Everybody laughed, even the flight attendant!!</p>
<p>Well I rolled into Florida around 10:00 pm and my nephew Brad and his lovely wife Caroline were waiting for me.  Thank goodness, as I was feeling a little light –all my pent up gassy excitement was wearing off!&#8211;LOL</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-large wp-image-341" title="Sandy Van Cromvoirt in Florida" src="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/sandy-brad-caroline-1024x682.jpg" alt="" width="356" height="237" /></p>
<p>After a wonderful, restful, sleep….  away we went to Key West.  The drive was as lovely as Key West itself especially since we had our two favorite pets along with us to keep us  company&#8212;“Rocky and Rosie” –</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-348" title="Sandy with Rocky and Rosie" src="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/sandy-and-dogs-1024x682.jpg" alt="" width="493" height="328" /></p>
<p>&#8212;sweet&#8212;and so good!!!!  &#8211;me on the beach with the puppies</p>
<p>Well here we are at our cottage on the ocean, tough I know.  The “BUTTS” had a tough time adjusting&#8212;LOL—all that ocean air and the wind to take your Fluffy Fabulous worries away!!! Life is good.  The little “BUTTS” were very excited to see the most  southern point in United States &#8212;90 miles from Cuba—do you think the little “BUTTS” could be heard that far??????</p>
<p>After that it was off to dinner and –guess what we had? &#8230;Alligator snacks!  Oh yeah, that will make your little “BUTTS” say …Hello……</p>
<p><img class="size-large wp-image-349 alignright" title="Florida sunset" src="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/sunset-1024x682.jpg" alt="" width="339" height="225" /></p>
<p>While we were  watching the fantastic sunset,  we heard a group of young girls laughing their heads off and giggling.  Finally they wandered over and said …&#8221;we just need to know what are ’The Farties&#8217;&#8221;?????</p>
<p>Well I was in my glory and told them all about the little “BUTT” Family and their gassy adventures….they giggled and laughed and asked how to find out more.  They loved the idea of becoming a  “FAN” of the Farties on “FACEBOOK”…</p>
<p>They could not stop laughing and said &#8220;We&#8217;ve got to get this for our Dad …this is soooooooooooo him&#8221;!!!!!   They were so excited to know that they can go on online and order a  “Meet the Farties”  book and T-Shirt for their <span style="color: #ff00ff;">Dad</span> for <span style="color: #ff00ff;">Father&#8217;s Day</span>!!!!!</p>
<p>I gave them “The Farties” trading cards that have our web site address on them <a href="http://thefarties.com">www.thefarties.com</a>.  I also mentioned that they should keep reading about &#8220;The Farties&#8221; on Facebook,   Twitter and the Blog as soon there will be something exciting happening!&#8230;.. something to do with winning  &#8212;-Fantastic Farties Prizes!!</p>
<p>I love to see what laughter can do for everyone and “Meet the Farties and the little “BUTT” Family does just that .   It is a wonderful feeling to be able to create something so laughable….. so lovable….. so adorable   and …..something for all ages …….with a morale to the story for us all!  Bodily functions will  always be with us –let&#8217;s handle them with care.   Let&#8217;s keep the &#8220;Class&#8221; in &#8220;Gas&#8221; and….use our manners  whenever……wherever….and with whomever!!!!</p>
<p>Now there is a lot more to this story &#8212;&#8221;BUT&#8221; I will tell more in the next blog……</p>
<p>In the meantime, keep believing in the wonderful world of laughter….. no matter what it takes ….Help keep the Fartie Fun alive and let&#8217;s all have a &#8220;Rootin&#8221; Hootin&#8221; Tootin&#8221; good time !!!!</p>
<p>Send me your comments.  Here on my blog, I   even offer <em>commentluv</em> which  is great for other bloggers out   there.   You can create a link  back to  your own blog!  But you don&#8217;t   have to be a blogger to give me  your  feedback&#8230;.And don&#8217;t forget to visit our website,   become a &#8220;FAN&#8221; of the Farties  on the  Farties &#8220;Facebook&#8221; Page and follow   us on Twitter.  You can do all that  right here from the blog site!</p>

<p>Hello again, this is Sandy Van Cromvoirt (The Fartie Lady).<em> Do you remember who I am writing about this time? Yes, you are right it is Timmy Tootie another &#8220;character&#8221; in my book &#8220;Meet The Farties&#8221;</em>.  As you may recall my first book has six characters. These characters are &#8220;Mr. Bart Fart &#8212; Not Me Mama&#8212;Freddy Fartie—Timmy Tootie—Billy Bubbles—Princess Pop&#8221;.  I wrote about &#8220;Princess Pop&#8221; in my last posting.  Now it is hootin, rootin &#8212;tootin Timmy&#8217;s turn!!</p>
<p><strong>How &#8220;Timmy Tootie&#8221; Came About in the book…..</strong></p>
<p>Timmy Tootie came into the story almost right from the start as we all have been asked &#8220;was that a toot?&#8221; So I knew we needed a Timmy Tootie.  He is Freddy Fartie and Billy Bubbles&#8217; cousin.</p>
<p>Again, I did not have to look too far to imagine who Timmy Tootie could be …..Another one of my grandchildren looked just like him.</p>
<p><a href="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/TimmyTootie1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-201" title="TimmyTootie1" src="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/TimmyTootie1.jpg" alt="" width="381" height="505" /></a></p>
<p>Timmy Tootie is a little taller than his cousins and loves to wear his handkerchief.  Timmy Tootie thinks it makes him look shorter! LOL</p>
<p>Timmy Tootie loves to wear hats!  He loves his little propeller hat.  WOW look at all his hats! Which hat do you like the best? I think that is Freddy Fartie with Timmy Tootie. Freddy Fartie is getting ready for his introduction on the next blog post and thought a picture would be nice with Timmy Tootie.</p>
<p><a href="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/TimmyTootie3.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-206" title="TimmyTootie3" src="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/TimmyTootie3.jpg" alt="" width="282" height="177" /></a></p>
<p>Look at these crazy silly hats that these little fellows are wearing.</p>
<p><a href="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/TimmyTootie4.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-207" title="TimmyTootie4" src="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/TimmyTootie4.jpg" alt="" width="279" height="208" /></a></p>
<p>Timmy Tootie can even make his own &#8220;Turkey Hat!&#8221;</p>
<p>When Timmy Tootie and his cousins play &#8220;Ride—em Cowboy!!, he runs to his room to get his &#8220;Big Butt Cowboy Hat&#8221; and his &#8220;Butt  Boots&#8221; …he is ready to play Hootin&#8211; Rootin &#8211;TOOTIN&#8221;  down home on the ranch.</p>
<p>Whoopee!!! Whoopee!! Timmy Tootie yells as he pretends he is riding his favorite horse &#8220;&#8221;"BUTT-KICK AND TOOT&#8217;&#8221;.</p>
<p>Then Timmy Tootie likes to put on his Tootie helmet and takes off on his riding machine …his little bike.</p>
<p>Sometimes Timmy Tootie plays too hard and gets his tooth knocked out …do you know what they call him then??&#8212;-<em>Timmy Tootie Toothless Wonder !!</em> LOL</p>
<p>Oh well, the tooth was going to come out anyway!!!  Timmy Tootie&#8217;s Mommy, Big Bertha, gets a little concerned and tells him to slow down.</p>
<p>After all that playing, Timmy Tootie is one hungry little &#8220;BUTT&#8221; and &#8220;&#8221;CHILI&#8221;"&#8221; is Timmy Tootie&#8217;s favorite food!! Yum! Yum!!! &#8211;all that chili…. I am just saying&#8212;&#8211;stay back!</p>
<p>Wait till you meet Timmy Tootie&#8217;s family!! I will give you a hint ….his Dad is &#8220;Loaded Lloyd&#8221; ….. and it just get more hootin tootin from there!!</p>
<p>Timmy Tootie has lots of brother and sister &#8220;BUTTS&#8221; and they all love family movie night! Can you guess what their favorite movie is?</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff00ff;">&#8220;&#8221;Loaded ..but… Dangerous!!!</span></p>
<p>They all get together and hoot&#8211; root and toot all night long.   It is a great time with the &#8220;TOOTIE&#8221; family. Maybe some night you can come over on movie night and &#8220;Toot&#8221; with us!</p>
<p><strong>My philosophy to each character and Timmy Tootie….</strong></p>
<p>Timmy Tootie is a friendly little butt.  He will only terminate you if you &#8220;TOOT&#8221; more than him.  Do you know of anyone that can clear the room with Terminator Toots????   I &#8220;BUTT&#8221; you do!!!!!  LOL</p>
<p>Timmy Tootie tries very hard to make you think he is dangerous &#8220;but&#8221; he has the cutest dimples.  Timmy Tootie loves it when you twirl his little propeller hat and he giggles. Timmy Tootie likes to say toot toot tootin to you!!!</p>
<p><a href="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/TimmyTootie-2.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-208" title="TimmyTootie 2" src="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/TimmyTootie-2.jpg" alt="" width="388" height="290" /></a></p>
<p>As each of the little &#8220;BUTT&#8221; characters get to know you better, they will love you. You can even have them all as part of your family too.  All the little &#8220;BUTTS&#8221; love to hear you giggle, laugh and just have fun reading all about them and their gassy adventures.</p>
<p><strong>In closing…</strong></p>
<p>I am having so much fun writing all about the little &#8220;BUTT&#8221; family with you here on the blog.  Do you &#8220;TOOT&#8221; like Timmy Tootie?? Do you like chili like Timmy Tootie?</p>

I wanted each of us to be able to relate to "Not Me Mama" -- someone that can cook up cabbage rolls in the kitchen for her little "BUTT" family and then be ready to go out looking gorgeous in high heels and diamonds.

That is why I want you to know I had a hard time deciding on whether "Not Me Mama" should be Blonde, Brunette or a Hot Redhead!!]]></description>

<h2><span style="color: #f30bc9;">Sandy Van Cromvoirt &#8211; Cabbage Rolls Anyone?<br />
</span></h2>
<p><a href="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Mamma-front.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-156" title="Sandy Van Cromvoirt - Not Me Mama" src="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Mamma-front.jpg" alt="" width="326" height="450" /></a>Hi everyone! Yes it’s me, Sandy (The Fartie Lady).  Many of you have been interested in knowing more about my character- the lady that started it all, so here is how<strong> The Fartie&#8217;s &#8220;Not Me Mama&#8221; </strong>came to be…..</p>
<p>As you might recall, there are six Fartie characters:  Mr. Bart Fart and  Billy Bubbles, who you’ve already met, Freddy Fartie, Timmy Tootie Princess Pop and me, Not Me Mama.</p>
<p>I wanted &#8220;Not Me Mama&#8221; to be a… Hot… Happening… Ever Loving… Styling Mama that loves her bling!! And she NEVER tells her age!!</p>
<p>I wanted each of us to be able to relate to &#8220;Not Me Mama&#8221; &#8212; someone that can cook up cabbage rolls in the kitchen for her little &#8220;BUTT&#8221; family and then be ready to go out looking gorgeous in high heels and diamonds.</p>
<p>That is why I want you to know I had a hard time deciding on whether &#8220;Not Me Mama&#8221; should be Blonde, Brunette or a Hot Redhead!!</p>
<p><a href="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/SANDY-copy.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-144" title="Sandy Van Cromvoirt" src="http://thefarties.ca/press/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/SANDY-copy.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="600" /></a></p>
<p>“Not Me Mama” loves to wear green, and  bright red lipstick!! So I went with the beautiful redhead look!  Do you like it?</p>
<p>&#8220;Not Me Mama&#8221; is a fun loving &#8220;BUTT&#8221; and loves to get up on the stage and sing with her &#8220;BUT-TIES&#8221; at parties!! &#8220;Mrs. Fartie and the But-ties&#8221; will knock you on your &#8220;BUTT&#8221; !! LOL</p>
<p>&#8220;Not Me Mama&#8221; loves to go to the movies with Mr. Bart Fart. Her favorite movie is  &#8221;<span style="color: #ff00ff;">Farties have Feelings too&#8221;</span>.  It is a wonderful romance story about little &#8220;Butts that overcome all the challenges of gas and go on to become a beautiful couple!!</p>
<p>&#8220;Not Me Mama&#8221; cries every time – Maybe it’s those cabbage rolls making &#8220;Not Me Mama&#8221; cry.</p>
<p>Do you want to know why I am called &#8220;Not Me Mama&#8221;? Well let me tell you.  We Mamas just don&#8217;t <em>admit</em> to any gas going on even if it <strong>is</strong> us. We just say, no, no, no, that wasn&#8217;t me, couldn&#8217;t be! We Mamas just don&#8217;t do that !! Well, at least we won&#8217;t admit it! We Mama&#8217;s try to be very lady like and hold, hold, hold on!!&#8211; until we can&#8217;t take it anymore and then we run like crazy somewhere where we can safely let our &#8220;Fluffies&#8221; escape and no-one gets hurt! Whew, that was close!</p>
<p>Sometimes it is very hard when I am teaching, Freddie Fartie. Timmy Tootie, and Billy Bubbles manners concerning their bodily functions especially when I am having a terrible time holding on too. Then I get rattled and all frustrated and away I go running willy nilly to find a safe spot to let out my “concerns” so the little &#8220;BUTTS&#8221; do not hear me and start giggling!.</p>
<p>Now you know, it just would not be right for &#8220;Not Me Mama&#8221; to let things get out of control with these little &#8220;BUTTS&#8221; &#8212;then all&#8211; <strong>hell</strong>o would break loose and there would be no stopping the &#8220;BUTTS&#8221; from saying &#8220;Hello&#8221; <span style="text-decoration: underline;">all</span> the time!</p>
<p>So to make it easier on everyone, the little &#8220;BUTTS&#8221; line up and let the &#8220;Farties&#8221; &#8220;Tooties&#8221; and &#8220;Bubbles&#8221;  goooo!! When they are all done, each of the little &#8220;butts&#8221; says &#8220;&#8221;"EXCUSE ME! PLEASE&#8221; and off they go to play.  It gives “Not Me Mama” a little quiet time for a while.</p>
<p>I look forward to sharing more info on our little &#8220;Butt&#8221; family&#8217;s gassy adventures with you here on the blog and I would love to get everyone&#8217;s feedback. Tell me what you think of &#8220;Not Me Mama&#8221;.</p>
<p>Do you like her as a Blonde? Brunette?  or Beautiful Redhead ?? I look forward to your comments!</p>
<p>Here on my blog, I even offer <em>commentluv</em> which is great for other bloggers out there.  Leave a comment and you can create a link back to your own blog!  But you don&#8217;t have to be a blogger to give me your feedback&#8230;.Also, feel free to &#8220;fan&#8221; our Facebook Page and follow us on Twitter.  You can do that right here on the blog site!</p>

Thank you for enjoying the fun and laughter that &#8220;Meet the Farties&#8221; brings and the wonderful feedback from all of you.</p>
<p>Can you guess who is going to be featured in the next post? Yes, that is right, &#8220;Princess Pop&#8221;.  Little Princess Pop sometimes get blamed when the little &#8220;BUTTS&#8221; are being toooo loud! They say it is &#8220;Princess Pop&#8221; and we all know that babies don&#8217;t know what they are doing. They just go pop, pop, pop AND SMILE!</p>
<p>Until next time, keep the <strong>Fartie Power</strong> alive!! and have a &#8220;Rootin&#8221; Hootin&#8221; Tootin&#8221; Great Day!</p>
