I'm able to get most of the references in this Charmin spot but some of them are completely lost on me.

The penny, the bird, the music sheet, knitting and the blanket?

Tossing the salad does NOT mean going to the toilet.

I'm lost on most of the ones hifi said, but I just love sinking the brown, passing the stool, watering the flowers and dropping the log

The sheet music, I think is referring to 'movement'.
