Of course Eeyore is the only one with an arrow in him.

“Poor Eeyore!”

Alexander Milne’s poetry is delightful for all ages.
Eyore does not mind the arrow, since he does not feel it. Maybe Eyore will feel the arrow tomorrow or maybe not.

Honey has antibiotics in it. Poultices were made of honey in the Old Testament. Do not heat the honey over 110degrees or you will kill the good stuff.

Mary, thanks for the heads up on heating honey. I did not know about the 110 F temp.This is an older book but it’s still around

I hope rabbit wasn’t leading the pack.

This was my eldest favourite cartoon as a child and it was on repetition on DVD. We still have the whole set including the puppet animated ones.

I read somewhere years ago that the characters in Winnie the Pooh represent diagnosed personality disorders:

Winnie- Eating Disorder
Piglet- Anxiety
Tigger- ADHD
Rabbit- OCD
Eeyore- Melancholic Depressive
Kanga- Social Anxiety
Roo- on the Spectrum
Owl- Narcissistic Personality
Christopher Robin- Schizophrenia

I’m sure it’s to be taken with a grain of salt because the characters are endearing and beautiful.
