Apologies for being this late wit Bears. Lots of things have happened and were slowly getting back to normal. Hopefully Bears will be back on a regular schedule

It’s been a while since Little Bear got her microscope (check out Not For Snacks).

Normally, to gather samples from a lake, you would get a specialised boat with a winch-like apparatus in the middle that will push through the lake bed and extract a sediment core, from which you can investigate your microbes at varying depths. However Little Bear was on a budget.

Recently someone had to go on a high protein diet. This is an actual conversation!

We were driving back from Bristol and we stopped at a place for ice-cream (after nearly running out of petrol!). The ice-cream shop had some goats and a large boar.
Laura made a joke about taking some boar bristles for her hairbrush at home (it’s made of boar bristles), and well we imagined what Bears would do.

A while back (5 years ago!) we made a comic about Little Bear’s furbrush.

In case it isn’t clear, there’s glitter on Big Bear’s tie and on Little Bear in the third panels.

I love to eat peanuts. However, my tummy does not like when there are too much peauts in it. Also, I have no self control!

Being Bears are back after a nice break.

This one is a usual occurance in our home. I would listen to my podcasts while cooking and not hear when Laura enter the kitchen, which would scare the bejesus out of me.

This is kinda based on a true story. Laura loves the mini cheese crackers. When I spend the day in the garden, I would pack lunch and some snacks. One time I forgot to eat my mini cheese snack. Returning home, I emptied my bag and placed the snack on the kitchen counter. I forgot about it and the next day went looking for ithe snack, but couldn’t find it. Asked Laura if she ate it and, unlike Little Bear she stated that she did. She did express her confusion as to why I expected it to last a full day!

I love to listen to podcasts (improvised fantasy actual play podcasts are my favs) … especially while gardening, cleaning etc. On a rare occaison both of us was in the garden together and … well this happened … yes this actually happened.

Recently Laura got a new microscope, and it’s quite fun. But I wondered what would Big Bear want to use the microscope for … the obvious answer is snacks!!!
