Thanks for your comments; everyone is doing OK. The Brown Dog is sleeping a lot more, but I don’t know whether that’s because the Black Dog used to keep him awake (hardly likely) or because the weather has been scorchingly hot. The cat has also been sleeping more, but that is because Mr. T bought a tray of mangoes and put the box in the lounge. So if you need some sleeping in a box done, I can get someone right on it. Very reasonable rates. Can supply his own box.
Also, can I recommend Aldi for all your gingerbread train-kit-in-a-box needs? Or, as the Germans would say, your zug needs. (I can’t remember the german word for gingerbread; it was long and had the funny beta-double-s-letter-thing). This is now almost all eaten; sad, considering how long it took me to laboriously ice together in the scorching heat of a 41 degree New Years Eve.
Also, I am back at work. Woe. There is an extreme lack of zug at my workplace. I should get on that.
We cold swap. You could send me your cat for some sleeping in a box and I could send you my children for some playing in a boxes. Just to mix it up a bit.
…in a BOX not a boxES.
I’m sorry to hear about your dog. That’s never easy. *hugs*
mmmm gingerbread houses… Next year I plan on making a big house from scratch. I LOVE gingerbread, plus they look crazy when they’re done up. Your train looks great, did you make the heart shape cookies as well?
Pfeffernuesse!!
They’re funny looking mangoes… I’d be wary of eating them… I think they may be slightly over-ripe, as they appear to have fur all over them… heh heh.
Bring on the workplace zug! It’s a necessity!

Hmm. Now that is creative and probably totally yummy.
Cheers
