JZ, that's stunning.
Very Inara.
...God, you guys are bad influences. I'm going to end up going back to my tailor and getting another jacket made at this rate...

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
Speaking of Chinese stuff ... moonlit introduced me to sundried Goji Berries (aka Chinese Wolfberries) a couple of weeks ago. They're very nice and incredibly good for you but this evening I found these on the supermarket shelf: Sundried Goji Berries coated in Dark Chocolate. Oh. My. Gawd. Absolutely delicious ... and even more good for you cos the dark chocolate increases the anti-oxidant benefits.

Poking my head because, according to Jim "If the Apocalypse Comes, Beep Me" Aug 14, 2005 11:53:06 pm PDT today is Clara's third (how can it be already?) birthday.
Happy birthday! With lots of wishes for Fiona, of course, and the rest of the family!

Happy birthday to Clara!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Happiest birthday, Clara! I hope it's full of delights.

Thanks, everyone! I think she had a good day, though it was a bit overwhelming at times. She scored some brilliant pressies, including a CD player, so we now have "In the Night Garden" on heavy rotation.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Awww... Clara is THREE!!!
Glad it was a happy.

B. started school yesterday! (They don't start until 6 here, and he's six-and-a-half). It was pretty exciting, especially as they make an enormous deal of the first day. Here is a picture of him with his "Schultüte", the big roll of cardboard filled with goodies which all schoolchildren are given when they start school. He made it himself, hence the dinosaurs:
Now we're just waiting for reality to set in. (He can already write and read up to age 10 level, so we have the feeling he might get a bit bored.... We'll see).
