Eat, Read, and Be Mommy

Yes, you read that right, folks.  I finished Hamster Princess:  Little Red Rodent Hood on Sunday, and it was impressively bizarre.  Also hilarious, of course–Mumfrey’s interjections were especially fabulous this time around–but still bizarre.  It’s possible that the structural differences contributed to that, since Little Red felt more complicated in the ‘who’s the bad guy?’ department, but I doubt they made that much of a difference.  Harriet Hamsterbone is consistently both unexpected and wildly entertaining, so if you haven’t read the “Hamster Princess” series, well–what are you waiting for?

In other news, school starts Monday and kids need haircuts and we haven’t actually packed away what’s in the kid’s school drawers from their last school year.  We’ve got two more sessions of swimming lessons, back-to-school/carnival night, a dinner that my eldest and I are involved in, and a birthday between now and then.  Good times will be had by all, I’m sure.  Best of luck in your back-to-school endeavors!
