It's Nora this time. It's still Christmas, at least until January 5th, which means we'll continue to post all about our holiday adventures for the next week. Or until the human gets sick of it. Which ever comes first. We didn't get wrapped presents, but we did get this wonderful holiday trunk.
 |
| As for what's inside... |
 |
| Lots and lots of wonderful things. |
On the very top is a little vintage book on the wonderful and brilliant Lady Ada Lovelace, her of the computer programming and analytical engine and Fibonacci sequence fame (also a steampunk inventor, but that's a different story). The human picked up the book from an antique book fair. As it happens, collecting miniature books is a thing humans do, but the books are frequently rather pricey. We won't tell you how much this one cost, but it was one of the cheaper ones, or so the human says.

| The books was immediately claimed by Kana. |
 |
| The trunk unpacked. |
The rest of the holiday haul included a pair of lace fans and nosegays (claimed by Sam and Nellie), a vintage picture book of an old English garden (ditto), a music box and nutcracker (decorations for the house), various science models (Lily), a spice grinder (for the kitchen), drafting tools (Shep, though her real present is something much more entertaining), a vintage camera (Cauth), and a fancy holiday apron and cookie cutters (mine).
