Dum Da Dee Da .. I'm so rumbly in my tumbly!
Thanks to my firstborn who is now in the throes of his terrible twos, I have developed a very strong affection for everything Pooh. You would think that after watching the same old cartoons day in and day out, reading the same stories at bedtime and listening to the really funny songs an upteenth time a day, I would've had enough? Well, what can I say; Pooh and his gang have a rather warm and fuzzy appeal. And he is so right that Winnie The Pooh when he sings "Dum Da Dee Da .. I'm so rumbly in my tumbly!", coz that is exactly how I have been feeling smack in the middle of winter.
As I had mentioned a long time ago somewhere in this blog that I would review "The Pooh Cookbook" first and foremost when I started going through my massive stash of cookbooks, that is exactly what I did. It is a lovely book, makes a lovely read and I just love reading the little jingles and poems that don't rhyme and then those that do. The recipes are so out of the Hundred Acre Wood, full of childish glee and sleepover fun. I tried out one of the easy-peasy quick to make recipes over the weekend and all that are left a day later are crumbs [it wasn't all me, hubby dear helped polish off some of it too]. It was a recipe for Chocolate Peanut Squares and called for the addition of Chunky Peanut Butter. We kept it away from our son as we are unsure about the safety or dangers of peanuts at this age, but all in good time!
