Spring Onions

Bear may not be very sporty, but he likes to be active.  Today he was off school as his school was holding entrance exams.  Apparently a lot more kids applied this year.  So he spent some of the morning lounging around in his pyjamas, then he hung around after finally getting dressed, then he hung around outside, then he hung around inside.  Finally his pal came round.  His pal had been to school, but was still feeling restless.  They decided that they wanted to go to the shop that was at least ten minutes away. 

'Muuuuum, can I go to the shop?'
'What do you want there?  We've got loads of stuff in.'
Bear thought for a few moments.  'I don't know.  Do you want anything?'
My house is stuffed.  I need a lot less, not more.  I rattled my brain.  'Could you pick up some spring onions for me?'

Bless them, at the thought of helping me they leapt into action and went the long way there and back.  I now have to think what to do with the spring onions.  I am thinking I may sautee them in the tiny frying pan to add to an omelette.  I finally found it, but I wouldn't bet against losing it again tomorrow.

Here it is - for £2.49 I got a pan that is perfect for a quarter onion.  The biro is just a standard ball point and I put it in there for scale.  The bowl is 12 cm or 5 inches across - tiny!
