The MaliMali Giraffe Dress and Giraffe Chiffon Scarf did finally make an appearance: on Christmas Day in Djenne. Much fun was had by all and the Turkey stuffing that I invented was a real hit- so much so that there was none left yesterday to my great consternation! Africans are normally very conservative in their eating habits, so when I said to Papa: 'do distribute the rest of the turkey to the staff and the gendarmes' I didn't think that the stuffing would be included. But yes. Not even a tiny little crumb left! I was very cross because I wanted to make myself a cold stuffing sandwich with some of the guava and whisky jelly! I just about managed to allow Christmas spirit to prevail... And the operations continue: more pictures tomorrow!
