Bob went to a party but I was feeling too antisocial to go. So it's me and the cats and tofu mac & cheese, which I'm oddly ok with.
When I took Emmett to the Lego store earlier in the day I spotted this. So I felt obliged to get it for Matilda. Who is, indeed, contentedly playing with it now.
Polar bear!
