Since heat has continued to prevent me from my baking exploits, I shall only say that Teddy has been so wise and steadfast during the World Cup. I have been foolish… cheering for stupid France (which was of course a losing battle) and then switching to New Zealand (happy only that they helped keep Italy from advancing) and only then did I split my loyalties between Uruguay and the Netherlands. Too bad I could only choose one when they played each other.

Teddy has, since he is wise and has his own mind, supported Netherlands from day one. He is such a smart bear. It is amazing. Because, in his infinite wisdom, he believes that all Spaniards (in Iceland or anywhere outside of Spain) are confused, he feels certain Oranje will be victorious.
