Guess Ruth told Beryl all about the whole Viking homeschool thing.

With the Danish lesson over, Ursula goes to find Noah in the kitchen. He pats her on the head and asks, "Er du kommet til England endnu?" (translation: Did you get to England yet?") Ursula, shocked at hearing him address her in Danish, and still not clear on what any of that means, says "Huh?" and Noah repeats himself in English: "Did you row to England yet?" Ursula scowls and says, "No. How about you row and I raid?" Noah grins and tells her, "Because you're the apprentice Viking and because I'm busy making pickled herring smørrebrød for lunch." Ursula makes a disgusted scrunched up face and says, "Eww... can we order pizza instead?" Noah smiles and replies, "Vikings didn't have pizza. But if you think about it, this is the same: bread with toppings." Ursula scowls and says, "Gross toppings. I want proper pizza!" Noah grins and tells her, "Well, get rowing. Denmark to Italy is 3450 miles."

Noah and Ursula are walking on the beach (all bundled up for the cold winds, though Noah as always has his shirt unbuttoned, baring his hairy chest). Ursula comes up to Noah with a strangely shaped piece of driftwood, saying "Daddy, look at this neat bit of driftwood!" Noah smiles and says, "Very cool! Now put it back." Annoyed, Ursula asks, "Why can't I take it home?" Noah scowls and answers, "Because driftwood prevents erosion." Ursula surveys the beach, replete with logs and chunks of driftwood, and says, "There's lots of other driftwood and logs." Noah replies, "Still." Now furious at being stymied, Ursula sneers, "This is because it's sandy and you just vacuumed your car, isn't it?" Noah is unmoved, repeating his prior command: "Put it back." Ursula obeys but complains, "Ugh... Grandma lets me keep the driftwood." Noah retorts, "That's cause Agnes doesn't vacuum her own car."

Ruth is looking forward to salad days for some insane reason.

Happy Bacon Day!
