With @lavaeolus as witness, I assaulted Dussmans and came away with new music for the new year!

Mama Deer and her two-year-old daughter have come looking for peanuts.

Two does standing in the snow, saying, we are just two girls, asking you humans to bring us apples, squash, and maybe some peanuts while you’re at it.
