Left for the Fairies: Fairy Ice Cream


Basically Fairy Ice Cream is milk, water, honey, and a few flowers like lavender and nasturtiums, and some mint, all frozen in the freezer and then left in the garden.

It took them a few days to eat it, and they even took the cup!

Learning About the Unseen World: A Visit with the Creators of Spiderwick






Alfred and I went to Storyopolis for a booksigning by Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black. You might know them as the author and illustrator of the Spiderwick Chronicles. Holly read, and we got to watch Tony draw. Tony also drew a very cool picture in one of my books after I showed him my seeing stone. It was a fun afternoon.
