  1. Oh, the look on his face! I could just kiss and squish those cheeks. Knives and chocolate - what could be more fun for a boy? So glad that they are both back safely from the motherland.

    1. Unfortunately, Karen, Oliver's passport didn't come on time and he wasn't able to go!

    2. (Palm to forehead) Aieee - of course, I knew that! I read your posting about it, but my memory is not as good as it once was. He looks so proud, as if he brought it all back with him - like a young door-to-door salesman, displaying his imported goods to the lady of the house.

  4. I dunno. Sounds like it could be a dangerous combination to me. Maybe I shouldn't admit that out loud.

  5. Gosh this makes me happy. I never know what to buy when I'm traveling. He bought the perfect things.

    And yes, great sentence. Raymond Carver up in here.

  8. Hooray! I agree there is a book to be written. BTW, I get vocabulary enrichment, among other things, of course, by reading your blog.

  9. Like Radish King's remark. At around Oliver's age those were probably my brother's two favorite
    things, since he couldn't have a motorcycle...
