Little bear goes for a walk

Today we walked to the library - without little bear complaining! It is a nice little stroll and the sun was shining. Little bear had a lot of fun jumping around the cracks in the pavement.

He then had the momentous task of choosing books. Sigh - one of them is a cookbook for children. I can see kitchen happening in the future. I also picked up one or two books from the book sale (I will never learn). One was a book about the sun, appropriate for little bear's age. One was a book about trees, appropriate for little bear's age - yes, four more books for little bear. Still, that means I may be able to lose four books from upstairs if I am cunning.

Then there was a trip to the butcher next door. The meat doesn't look that nice, but they do an extremely good frozen mince and they also do scotch eggs as desired by little bear, and they quite a few little odds and ends. I nearly bought a cauliflower, but remembered that we were having chilli tonight, and cauliflower wasn't really on the menu.

Then we walked back with token complaining from little bear. Now he has found another Easter Egg so we are locked in a battle of wills. He obviously wants to scarf as much fat and sugar as possible in the shortest time, I am trying to protect him from the effects of stuffing himself with chocolate relentlessly. This will go on for some time.
