As we used to comment upon quite regularly on the Tassava Amalgamated blogs, Julia has an excellent memory. Lately she's put it to use reciting chunks of Winnie-the-Pooh - specifically the story about the "expotition" to the North Pole. (I posted on our mutual fondness for this story a few weeks ago.)
In this clip, she recites an especially hilarious section (the text - more or less - appears below).

"What I say," said Eeyore, "is that it's unsettling. I didn't want to come on this Expo--what Pooh said. I only came to oblige. But here I am; and if I am the end of the Expo--what we're talking about--then let me be the end. But if, every time I want to sit down for a little rest, I have to brush away half a dozen of Rabbit's smaller friends-and-relations first, then this isn't an Expo--whatever it is--at all, it's simply a Confused Noise. That's what I say."
"I see what Eeyore means," said Owl. "If you ask me--""I'm not asking anybody," said Eeyore. "I'm just telling everybody. We can look for the North Pole, or we can play 'Here we go gathering Nuts and May' with the end part of an ants' nest. It's all the same to me."
