England, December 2, 2009 (Day 17)

For lunch today, Tina, Lillia, Joe and I went to Oliver's, which is our favorite place for fish and chips. The cod is so delicate and tender that it nearly melts in your mouth.

Lillia making funny faces at lunch. And, we didn't even give her any vinegar for her chips!

Mushy peas! They don't sound like they would taste good and
they don't look like they would taste good but, oh, they do!

Fish and chips

This afternoon we went over to Delia's house to give her birthday cards and wish her a Happy Brithday. Afterwards, we went to the Odiham Extravaganza which takes place every year in the town near Nick and Tina's house. This is our second time going to the Extravaganza. The first time the weather was great but the fair was a bit disappointing. Tonight, the fair was much better but the weather was terrible. It rained (and, at times, even poured) but Tina, Joe and I had a good time overall. We saw Tori walking around with friends and she was drenched!

Now, mind you, I have never actually looked for lard in the grocery store but I have never seen it. There is a little local coop on the High Street that is a small grocery store. We saw lard there and, for some reason, I wanted to take a picture of it!
