A Raspberry Bimble

When your trio of rambunctious ruffians are still wrecking havoc three hours past bedtime, the only thing left to do is admit defeat and escape to the garden.  As long as you can tune out the incessant bleating of the sheep insisting that they are about to experience a sordid and imminent demise due to tardy dinner delivery, an evening garden stroll can be a calming end to one of those days.

If you are feeling especially depleted and find yourself still not ready to face your sleepless ruffians quite yet, you can add a session of raspberry picking to your jaunt.

And if you manage to stretch out your evening bimble just long enough, you may in fact discover that, in your absence, said ruffians have put themselves to sleep and the house is finally and thankfully silent.
