Christmas Stocking

[lathany]

With a couple of tiny presents thrown in.

Today is bateleur's birthday. Because yesterday's cake was a moderate success, it's going to get ten glittery candles (he didn't want thirty-two) for this evening. Ryan and Bea were disappointed to learn that they aren't getting cake until after then.

Today is also the day I decided to try and start Beatrice on potty training with the aim of getting her dry over Christmas. So far, it isn't working. She's not even mentioning action in that area to me. Never mind, plenty of time left.

Both frankincense and myrrh are pourable. Frankincense has a nice woody smell and is good for asthma, and myrrh has a slightly odd woody smell and is antiseptic and vulnerary.

A box containing either of them would get distinctly soggy.

Hmm. I'm quite sure that myrrh at least does come in a powdery form - though possibly many other forms as well.
