My boxes

This picture was taken when I move houses at the end of last year. I am so glad that I still have room to keep these boxes. To save space, I ususally fit the small boxes inside a bigger box. The boxes play a very important role in the collection experience. This is not a fairly big collection compare to many other collectors, still lots of room to grow.

Few weeks ago a friend of mine came to my home and saw my sylvanian families, his eyes revealed to me that he was thinking why would I spend so much money on these "toys"? I didn't say anything at that time because I knew the cost of all my Sylvanian Families were less than the value of the Gucci bag his wife bought. There was no need for me to defense myself. And, that's what keeps me going... hehehe

Mama Judy's Soup Lesson

One sunny afternoon, when the Sylvanian children were playing in the playgound, they realized the Sylvanian Soup festival is coming soon.

(To see what happened in the soup festival last year, see http://sylvanianhome.blogspot.com/2008/02/sylvanian-families-secret-soup.html )
So they went to see the Mama Judy in the Sylvania Boutique. Mama Judy is an elderly person. Everyone in the Sylvanian Village says that she knows lots of things.


One week later, the kids went to the Sylvanian Boutique,
but they couldn't find Mama Judy.
Mama Judy was staying in the back of the shop,
she heard the conversation between Lea and the kids,
she thought the kids didn't need her , so they did't care about her anymore.

The kids didn't know that they could pass the card in person to Mama Judy,

they thought it has to be posted into a post box, as it was the first time they write a card.

That further delayed the time when Mama Judy receives it.

One week later, Mama Judy had recovered from the injury.

She still hadn't seen or heard anything from the kids. She was very upset

and decicded not to show the kids how to make soup again.

But suddenly, Postman Bear and Waitier Mouse delivered something unexpected to her....

She read the card and noticed

how much effort the kids had put in to get her the gift.

The soup lesson resumed. As a return,

Mama Judy taught the kids a family's secret recipes for soup.
