Friday, July 31, 2009. Dave Eggers is on a charity kick. When his last illumination of the troubles we are not privy to in our daily lives came out, I was interested, intrigued. I went to hear the very tall Valentino Achak Deng speak at the local bookstore. Sudan sounds scary but then again, apparently so does New Orleans. Maybe I need to revisit that place so close to home. I belong here, in there? .

To celebrate being part of this fabulous blog tour Little Sniffer and I decided to make a picnic tea inspired by some of the things we spotted in Sun. The latest seasonal delight from illustrator and author Sam Usher. The first little chap to catch our eye was the charming little green parrot on the front cover. With his delightful green plumage and perky yellow beak he leant himself perfectly to a fabulously fruity Crudités creation! We forgot to make a bow tie! .
