This is absolutely brilliant. Love the caption for Rufus! I don't know which is more beautiful, your mighty offspring or your adventures in displaying your maternal love. ;)

yes!! tiger cake! i TOLD you it'd kick ass.

those chocolate stick biscuits were awesome, but the jelly "water" in the pool always looked rubbish to me. the guitar was rad. as was the completely sexist sewing kit and typewriter in the girls section of the book.
