 No, not grandchild number six, though this one is due at the beginning of March, which is quite soon. What´s here is the wristband and necklace hubby ordered for Elsa. A neighbour does those, and friends were enthusiastic about her work. Me not so- I could have done the same, maybe a bit more elegant. Or elaborate. Whatever. Besides, Elsa tends to lose such things, so no harm done, not much money wasted. Hubby braved the short distance to neighbour and picked the present up, while I did housework. Not a foot outside when it´s cold and snowing! After housework I took a steam shower with aromatic oils in hope to regain my olfactory sense. I smelled the oils (so my sense hasn´t died completely but is on vacation), and after that nothing. But cooking could not be avoided with two young and one old man in the house. Pork sweet and sour it was. It´s strange to cook following cooking instructions only, even weigh out the amount of meat I was using. Even more so because husband mine had been off again to pick the boys up and buy flowers for Valentine, so no one in the house for testing the result of my cooking. Cassian had no big appetite- no wonder, he had suffered from another bout of vomiting the day before. Of course, his parents won´t stay at home then but even send him to kindergarten. Then again, tomorrow evening son number four will come for a visit, and there´s leftovers for him- he loves sweet and sour pork! Hubby hasn´t yet tried another attempt at inviting family number two for lunch tomorrow. Lucky me, cooking is really pesky at the moment!
Cassian and I finished Lego Hogwarts. The castle looks somewhat unimpressing in size but was a lot of work with all those tiny pieces. Now on to Romanian Lego Barad-dûr. Cassian recovered it for me. Seems that the boy must be regularly in my drawers. I did not even know where I had stored the box. But first I have to find a safe place for Hogwarts, one that won´t involve regular dusting. Too much dusting won´t do any good when the Lego pieces will fall apart...
