   #1 - The Secret Dish

   S1:E565/2/1991

   Is Moominmamma's family really getting tired of her cooking? It seems impossible, but Little My unabashedly claims that she is getting very bored with always having pancakes, and Moominpappa at least implies that the best dish he ever had was one not cooked by his beloved wife. As always, when in a quandary, Moominmamma consults Grandma's book of recipes and cures and, sure enough, finds "What To Do When Your Family Grows Tired of Your Cooking". Taking Snufkin along, she embarks on the journey that the recipe calls for, to find the secret ingredient necessary for the Irresistible Dish.

   #2 - The Terrible Little My

   S1:E605/31/1991

   As we all know, Little My is happily aggressive, with no inhibitions and no hang-ups. She gets very angry at times but never sulks, and always enjoys herself immensely. All in all a very likeable person. She always does exactly as she pleases, but with the sensible proviso that it shouldn't too much displease anyone else - and therefore it's that much more of a shock to everyone when one day she starts behaving simply abominably. The general consensus is that she's got out of bed on the wrong side - difficult as that may be when your bed is set flush against the wall...

   #3 - The Chair

   S1:E677/25/1991

   One awful day, Moominpappa's chair breaks. This might not sound irreparable, but creative people are funny - they rely on certain material comforts for their inspiration to run freely. Without the chair to sit in Moominpappa can no longer write, and although he is brought new old chairs by the dozen somehow the sit differently, they weren't his chair, and they don't inspire him one bit. Moomin plays an important part in the destruction of the chair, but fortunately also the main part in its resurrection.

   #4 - Moomin's Big Fish

   S1:E708/15/1991

   The Snork has made a new invention; a super-glue that sticks to everything and won't come off easily, either. While his sister Snorkmaiden is out with Moomin and the others trying their luck at fishing, the Snork cooks glue in Snorkmaiden's kitchen, making rather a mess of the place. On her return Snorkmaiden is truly miffed and moves into Moominhouse, leaving the snork to fend himself. Getting brother and sister together again seems no easy task, but the fish party Moomin is throwing to celebrate (and eat) his record catch seems to offer possibilities...

   #5 - Painting a House

   S1:E769/26/1991

   There is no end to the catastrophes that befall the Hemulen - barely has the hailstorm destroyed his beloved plants when a terrible wind makes off with part of his roof, and then Little My descends on him, making the hole in the roof even bigger. She and her friends decide to do all the necessary repairs, and get so caught up with their work that when it is finished they decide to re-paint everything inside, too. This is very kind of them, but sometimes people like their old walls, even if the paint may peel a bit...
