Reading Century 21: Menace From Space by torchlight while listening to peaceful African music.
A calm fishing trip
The warmth and comfort of talking to Lady Penelope at night
The warm smell of a cake coming from the kitchen
Brains resting in the shade of a tree
Leaving ochre-covered handprints on the walls of a cave during the prehistoric ages
The silent blackness of the night
Being comforted to sleep by Parker and Lady Penelope on the sofa after a long, hard night
Gentle curiosity
Dew on the grass
Tin Tin hugging Alan when he hugs my baby self gently
Being massaged with honey and war paint

A Word Of Advice From Simba

If you've just woken up from a nap and don't know what to have for lunch - burgers would probably make a good breakfast anyway - I think cornflakes would be a best suited option. They're so nutritious and full of sunshine.

Back in my day, Amber and I used to love watching that one commercial featuring that Foghorn Leghorn lookalike named Cornelius Rooster. One time when I was watching it, I told her about the Lion Calendar (much like the Mayan Calendar, but for lions) that we used to have in my kingdom before it got destroyed by the turtle army. One part of the calendar suggests that every lion eats cornflakes for breakfast every morning. It boosts their strengths, makes their roars even louder and makes their teeth sparkle. Oh, and did I mention? It also makes their fur nice and soft.

So a nice bowl of cornflakes won't do any harm to try during lunch time. I read once in a book that you should have cornflakes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. That irresistibly crunchy taste...golden corn...oh my goodness, the joy!

So, er.....why can't everything be as simple as Kellogg's Cornflakes?
