In Dutch we have a saying: 'Cat in the box'. It means something like 'it was an easy job and it's done'. In this phrase the meaning of the word 'Kat' (Cat) is supposed to come from the Malaysian word 'gadji' (abundant) which comes from 'gage' (wages). It was mainly used in the Rotterdam harbor. On 'Katjesdag' (Cats-day) the wages were paid and the pocket was again abundantly filled.
Forgot to mention Lois just outgrew her favorite box but she can't say goodbye!
Love this, clearly she does still love it. And there is a certain similarity between your table top and mine of just a couple years ago (not that there aren't still Legos in the house that come out on occasion).
