Just a quick packing question here.

When you fetch your boxes out of storage to get ready for the move, and you discover they have been decimated by rats, what do you do? These are not just any boxes. They are the unique ones that your glass dishes came in, or your Bosch Universal Mixer, or your stereo system. With all the padding included. The ones designed specially to keep your stuff from breaking.

Just wondering...

So moving on to thanksgiving topics. First of all, we are very thankful that Daddy is back, and Grandpa and Grandma are back, and my cousins are back - they were all gone up north at the same time!
And that means I get to eat real food again. Cuz while everyone was gone, Mommy fed me meals that looked like this on my kiddy table in the kitchen, instead of putting me in my high chair with a nice square meal. See if you can figure it out...
Yes, that is, clockwise from upper left, mango, green beans, grapes, potato chips, banana muffins, and cabbage. We are all into square meals here... The potato chips were pretty good, though.
So moving on - we have been keeping a thankful list on our sidebar, and I thought we'd post it here today.

Speaking of thanks, here's a cool list of 50 Reasons to Like Maputo, or to be thankful for our time here, if you know the city at all or are interested in what it's like.

And here I am reluctantly displaying our official thanksgiving craft, a thankful wreath. Lots of my hand tracings with "thanks" in different languages written on them.
Happy Thanksgiving, folks!
