Building Blocks

I have this huge chest filled with Lego blocks. Some are really old, simple pieces from my childhood, and some are a lot newer. There are girlish pieces in pastel colors, and there are fearsome pirates, dragons and dinosaurs. There are spaceships and ponies. There are cars and wheels, big ones, and small ones. There are even cups and plates in "silver". And lots, and lots of plain building blocks.

When the kids were younger I tried to organize the pieces into colors, sizes, and themes. Tedious, and not very inspiring to play with. Now I have put them all in this big jumble in the chest, ready to build the most spectacular and unexpected things.

Anyone wants to play?
