totoro

He beckons you closer, you cannot resist. He encases you in his soft embrace and you sleep soundly.

Does Totoro melt in the rain? Either way, I'm glad he has his leaf with him to stay dry.

Even the bathroom can get some special Totoro love!

When you curl up on the couch to watch your favorite Studio Ghibli movies, Totoro will make the moment even more special.

Shhhhhh... Totoro is sleeping and though he is sweet and adorable when awake, he is even cuter when taking a trip to slumberland. D'awwww. So precious.

What a happy neighbor Totoro is!

Everyone together now: "SQUEEEEEEEEEEE!" Because seriously, a pocket full of Totoro? GIMME!

Sometimes you just love something so much you want to eat it just so it can be a part of you. Totoro! Bring y our leaf hat and befuddled expression and get in my belly!

Such a friendly bun, I can hardly stand to eat him. But I'll try.

Totoro, you can tote my belongings anywhere!

I wish I could find where to get these guys, friends. Sadly they simply live adorably in this photo for us to enjoy and yearn for. Such is life.

Catbus wants in on the action too!

He'll look after your things and keep them safe. Promise.

My grandmother used to make excellent shortbread. She'd melt the butter and sugar together using the heat of her bare hands, massaging it between her fingers until it all melded together uniformly. They were so buttery and tender and delicious. They would have been perfectly worthy of becoming little Totoros.
