This one's for you, Stompergirl....
It's a blazing hot Sunday afternoon. Too hot for the computer (it crashes from the heat), waaaay too hot for the studio (a wall of glass that faces west: forgeddabowdit), the child is bored and pesky and you have nowhere to go because everyone you know is bohemian (read: poor), and can boast possession of neither aircon nor pool (dammit). Or, they're much smarter than you, and are already at the beach under their shadecloths, with their mobiles switched off.
So.
What do you do?
Do you turn on the oven, crank it up high, and bake teddy bear biscuits?
And then try to pipe happy faces onto them?
Would that be a Good Idea?
Probably not.
