It's Saturday, Daddy is back, and we resume family life, that good old autumn & winter warming thing. The heating is switched on, and we get out new slippers in warming summer tones out for play (and snack) time at home, before we venture out into the cold in yet more warm tones.
All the way down New Walk, and Tara is allowed to WALK some all by herself (did we mention she walks rather well?), and once our weekend shoppings are done, a nice drink and Saturday dinner in a cool bar for cool people that are a bit cold and want a boiling hot place to strip down to their undies. (We're cool! We were cold, and now we're boiling hot and in our undies!)
Apple juice... but really, anything with a straw in it will make a sticky mess, yeah.
And who can resist the charming cold and come straight back home? Not us! One nappy change later we're back out in the park racing friends and doing other fun stuff that helps us keep warm.
Oops! Colour! Green and pink!
No weekend blog complete without daddy, so here he goes: Daddy, aka The Daddy Monster, chasing Princess Chicken all the way across the house. A keep-warm favourite, Rrrrrrrrr....
" Eeeeekkk," *giggle screech giggle*...
... and, once caught, rrrrrooooaaarrr, a Washingtonian Nappy Change (again!) in an homage to all out American friends suffering silently in their American cold. Smile, daddy!
One week down, three to go! Half the bathroom is packed up, and I'm busy baking up outdated (only slightly!!) kitchen cupboard ingredients so I won't have to bin them. Winter warming biscuits, anyone?

Very well written post, MA-of-literature-Alex. Try and find a job in publishing, will ya? Maybe Sandwich has its own edible newspaper you could work for. The colored pictures are funny, but only as a one time. Cause Jose looks way too orange. Or is it self-tanning cream? Well, lets hope not. (Or maybe it's his Spanish self turned inside out, all bulls and horns.) More important than syntax and style: You look so happy as a family!!!! It's time to move to Sandwichland.
What do you mean, his Spanish side turned inside out! He's turning into a pumpkin! It's Hallowe'en!!!
