Yay: My "picky eater" two fistin' pears.
Yay: The other one. Crazy. But happy! So happy! Cannot squelch her joy!
Boo: The fireplace is not a great place to play (purely from the perspective of the mother and family laundress).
Yay: The removable top of my sewing table is the perfect size to hide the fireplace!
Boo: Uh, sewing table?!?!? No sewing table. No sewing table. No sewing table. No sewing table. I am gutted.
Related boo: The underside of a workbench is not the most attractive addition to our decor.
Yay: Spaghetti carbonara with organic bacon for dinner last night. And leftovers for lunch. It's the little things, isn't it?
Yay: Reading Watership Down aloud with the whole family.
Possible impending Boo: Claustrophobic nightmares (mine - not the kids, they are as tough as nails) brought on by sympathizing with the plight of anthropomorphic rabbits.
i heart that picture very much.

Why, why, why... loved Watership Down when I was a kid, no adult who enjoys sleeping and a modicum of empathy should ever read it. Put the film on then leave the room. I come close to bleating when I read that, so it's your own damn fault. I have to say that picture absolutely rocks.
Much love......... soon

ps Can experiment on you and my niece when I visit?

I must comment on Watership Down as well as our bro. I find it disturbing that it's on for Easter in England. How do you eat a chocolate bunny and watch their plight!?! How?! How?!
