The first thing that I feel obligated to share is that when you add milk to hot tea, the tea loses all its healthful properties. Don't ask me why. Ask a chemist.
Now, I am trying to make little readers of my dear neices and nephew. They all continue in opposition to my attempts, but I stubbornly keep trying. I believe that I am a good book-chooser, both for them and for me. I am currently (due to an onslaught of peer pressure), reading a book called, The Wind in the Stars, 366 days with George MacDonald. George was greatly admired by C.S.Lewis, who said of his writing that you can see that Christ is at the center of his every thought and deed.
As I was driving around town yesterday, going from bookstore to bookstore, finding just the right books for my favorite non-readers, I saw a very cute little girl in a pink summer dress, walking with her dad, and carrying her dolly in a pink blanket. As I looked closer at the odd dolly, I saw that it was a big crocodile she was carrying so lovingly in the pretty pink blanket!
I hope you all found something entertaining and refreshing (something akin to a cool drink on a hot day), in that random hodgepodge of rigamarole---which I have yet to order at an Italian restaurant . . . rigamarole.

(Refreshing sound:) Aaaaaahhh
I very much enjoyed At the Back of the North Wind by MacDonald. It was a beautiful book. There are many wonderful quotes from it. I should read it again just for the edifying quotes.
I also enjoy my little pink girly. And tea, albeit with milk.

I like tea with milk. And I like crocodiles wrapped in pink blankets. :)
I have always--even as a little girl some centuries ago--been such a willing reader that books or other reading material have had to be pried from my hands--or so I have been told.
I would take tea as a trade off--drink tea, get book back--but never had such an unusual toy as the girl in your post.
"Activate the Omega 13."
Something refreshing? Always in your posts.
Yes! The Omega 13! I just need 13 seconds to change the course of history for me and my people!!
Maybe it was her version of an alligator purse?
I too like tea with milk--and sugar--but for me it only happens at Christmas time.
