"Well," said Pooh, "what I like best -- " and then he had to stop and think. Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but he didn't know what it was called.

Hmmmmm..... we seem to have lost interest, or run out of things to say, or something. :thinking: I can't even remember if I finished the book or not. I mean, of course, I've read the whole thing before, but I was re-reading it for this group, I think.
