she's still refusing any food not to her liking; I think we've narrowed it down now... but I happened to go into Nick's room this evening and she's on the windowsill checking out the goings-on outside (none) - but horror of horrors! what's this? she's puked on the windowsill and down onto the floor behind the TV.. yeurgh! - and not today either - sigh, get the rubber gloves out..
