KIERSTIN
MEMORABLE MEALS

Kierstin,  inhabiting a  6 year old's  fantasy  world,  shares  her room  with rabbits,  dwarfs, and teddy bears. As quickly as her moods  pass  she creates  accompanying  costumes -  a  ballet dancer, a black cat, a princess. As a fairy angel she celebrates her favorite meal with a party for her dolls.

She  joyfully   arranges  her  room  for  a  birthday  party.  The carpet  swept,  star and rainbow  drawings pinned to the wall, and  Mr Jackson  the frog  returned  to  the garden.   Each doll and  stuffed  animal   is   seated   in  order  of   affection.  With attentiveness  she decorates  a chocolate  cake she made with thick  swirls  of  icing and  candles.  Kierstin sings her birthday song, the candles flickering, and everyone is served  cake and tea.  She  devours a  generous  portion  of  birthday cake,  her favorite meal,  while telling  stories of flowers and Springtime. Kierstin  assumes   the  reclining   position   while  taking  tea, drinking directly from the spout of the teapot.

Examination  of  Kierstin's  case  history  indicates  she chases chocolate  bunnies  down rabbit holes,  and dreams of finding the gingerbread house when the witch isn't home.  She is also fond  of   honey sandwiches.   Kierstin's  tooth  fairy  has  been surprised by  the  number  of  sweet teeth  collected under her pillow.
