The Couch Potato has everything within reach and doesn’t have to move from the sunken couch cushion. Could fresh air and sunshine possibly be better than the views on screen? This cookie has never felt like a smart cookie no matter how hard she tries. Could a dash of creativity and a sprinkle of confidence be all she needs? The Sour Grape holds grudges for everything! But could a bunch of forgiveness be enough to turn this sour grape sweet?
