I got TWO sewing kits for christmas!

THey are both filled with cookies.

Headed downstairs to lobby for coffee, parents are picking me up to go to Cafe du Mond for a final beignet of the visit, then treating Gyrf to the WWII museum before flying home because he has been Very Good all trip!

nifty

Eeek

teeheehee

How goes?

not too bad

gonna shower in a bit

Clean and sparkly nod

HA. Yeah, can't argue with that math

Earl, of course, got his socks but also 8 nights of pressies

Vashti, too

probably lots of art supplies for both of them

and BOOKS

Of course books.

Books are one of Zara's expressions of love 🙂

books and socks, yup

Clem would have gotten Zara a doll

Anne!

much delight!

then, of course, an attempt at dignity

But of course!

Clem, being a good friend, will only smile when she thinks Zara isn't looking

tryin to recall - does Clem have a soft spot for harlequin romances?

A few in the vein of Western romances or,, oddly, Regency/Swashbuckler sorts

(Before Siv even came about 🙂 )

thought so

so: a stack of trashy romance novels with custom covers

"Feed Corn Varietals and You"

"Ducks: How to Make Them Pay"

"Midwestern Mowing Techniques: Now for 2020!"

Clem would shoot a relieved look at the custom covers to hide them "You DO get me. Thank you"

Clem's one of her best friends!

Probably her closest girl friend

Now i have mental picture of clem sitting down reading 'that book on corn', and at the same time being used as a barrier so no would see Zara playing with her Anne Doll

ha!

teamwork ! 🙂

friends!

afk, shower is free

Later!

Morning!

Hey. just in time for me to get banished.

My family conversations tend to go like this
