Sunday Randomness #271 Chocolatey spread

Christmas surprise item: individual jars of Nutella. First step after opening box holding Nutella jars: mark with name! We seem to get a bit territorial with Nutella around our house; I guess there's just something about spreadable chocolate! I loved how spontaneously everyone marked their jars; the labeling was unplanned and in harmony with at least some aspects of each person's personality. Click on the picture to see what each person put on the lid to identify their Nutella.

Nutella is a bread topping created with hazelnuts, milk and cocoa in Italy by Mr. Pietro Ferrero as a way to extend cocoa which was in limited supply during World War II. Find out more about the history of this great breakfast treat at: http://www.nutellausa.com/history.htm

BBC productions: Hamlet

Daisy sat through the full three hours. Starring David Tennant (Doctor Who) and Patrick Stewart (Star Trek), the BBC production from The Royal Shakespeare Company is a very compelling version of Hamlet. Mica, Hedgehog and I enjoyed Hamlet playing in the background and occasionally took time to watch scenes with Daisy.
