WOW! THAT MAMAN HAS TALENT! And Mya, I understand that you were a model, too, no? Maybe Mya’s mama will let us take a sneak preview of your portrait… SO…mama has just found out that the Expo is ON and formalized by contract. Mya’s mama is doing wonderful portraits of us and other animals, and here is one she did for a...

There’s a doggy out of the picture, but hey, that’s the way the camera bounces! Hey, out there. I’m just hanging here on my Annapura rock on top of my little private Lie-Down-Rug that papa’s ex-wife gave to me for Christmas, and I am as happy as a clam, whatever that means, because OUTSIDE it is COOOOOOOLD and everyone says...

WHAT??? You’re going back to your studio to WORK? MIRACOLO!!! Well, FINALLY, after artist’s block surfaced a few weeks ago, mama has pushed on through to the other side (Jim Morrison, thanks for that), and waylaid papa into going into her studio and looking at some art that MAY or MAY NOT work in the upcoming expo she is having with...

Now what on earth kind of bread is THIS? I lovely little video from Mary McNeil that will have you looking at your kitty in a new way. Maybe. I just know that your imagination will take off as mama’s did after having seen this. But she’s still puzzling over some poses! Maybe Kaiser roll? Hmmm… SEE…this is NOT easy. (Raspberry...

Well, all I can say is, our weatheranthro is completely schizophrenic. One day he says rain and one day he say sun and I’m just going for the sun prediction. Maybe root around a little in the weeds…er…flowers (sort of). Short blog today so that I can get a little tan. Haha. I found myself a sun puddle and I’m taking advantage of...

My solution to bad weather. Unfortunately mama doesn’t have one other than finding herself procrastinating over about five different projects that HAVE to be addressed but meanwhile she is running around like a crazed weasel because she drove in the rain all the way to her exercise class and found that the road that gets her there was blocked because...

NO, NO, don’t make me eat CURRY!!! Even if it is a nice chicken one. Maybe I’ll taste the rice. Then everyone puts condiments on his/her curry and rice, and they are called bhurtas. Mama was telling papa that there is even an egg bhurta, and papa said, “Wait a minute!!! That’s the name of our neighbor’s chicken, EggBerta,...

Well, I was minding my own business, having a snooze (what else?) because there was a lot of activity today all over the house–washing of windows, fixing of atelier for mama’s paintings, Vacuum Monsters running everywhere–so I was bowing out of it all when I gazed out the window and across my vision in MY garden trotted, well, sauntered,...

That little white Irish donkey did WHAT? Well, Pie, the Irish WHITE donkey, has finally found a home after terrorizing all the males in the field where he was put to…er…do whatever it is that donkeys do with some females to make more donks. BUT, even after he…er…completed his important mission, he continued to run after ALL the...

An incredible photo by Stephen Eichhorn from his book, Cats and Plants. (Featured in The Guardian on January 21.) But I’m not goin’ NEAR that catctus kitty!!!! Maybe I can hide in the wild arugula… He’ll never see me here,...

HELLO, out there. How’s YOUR memory working? Well, mama says memory lane is what I meant when I used it as the title today and that it must have been a typo! I was actually talking about mama’s memory and how maybe sometimes it veers off from the lane it should have been on and takes a little detour down a side road. For example: lost...

Well, this may not seem like a winter photo but it is. This is my winter snuggle face. I lie around and lament the wind and rain and papa comes over every time and snuggles me. But this is our little town in winter. NO one is around. Well, the bakery is open, thank heaven. I get a little crumb or two from a croissant, but I prefer kibble puff pastry,...

Or soccer? Or maybe some mouse-hunting? Or beach ball bouncing? Okay, okay, I get it. Just too worn out, right? How about a simple game of catch? No? Okay, okay, I get the picture. Maybe when my nip nanna shows up, you’ll change your MIND!! So, no takers, and I’m just going to go off and practice a few rabbit kicks ALL BY MYSELF....

So, I know I’m supposed to be UP and JUMPIN’ and RUNNING around like a crazed weasel after reading the morning news, but right now, what I’m feeling more than anything and more than ever are the blahs. Maybe because it’s winter. Blahs happen then, or at least to me. But it’s okay, because it builds character, whatever that...

DO I EVER HAVE TOYS LIKE THOSE? So where are they, mama? Well, I am wondering about my good friend, Mya, and her amazing doggy bed full of wonders. Her mama found her one morning in her bed among all her toys that she had arranged nicely in her little abode! Mya, I mean, not her mama. I think she did a bang-up job, don’t you? I think my favorite...

HEY, DON’T YOU TOUCH MY IVORIES!!! I can do a lot with two teeth! Hey, THEY talk about having my teeth cleaned but I’m not big on whatever they do to put you OUT during the ordeal, plus I don’t have many teeth and I’m afraid they might steal some of my remaining chompers. BUT, mama and papa are off today to get THEIR teeth done. I...

Our president said WHAT? Mama says this may be dating her, but she remembers, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me.” WRONG. Words do matter, especially when speaking of other countries less fortunate than our very rich USA. What if someone called your little town the word beginning with ‘s’ that T used...

Hey, not THAT market with all the graphs and things. I mean our open market that happens on Sundays around here. Also Wednesdays. And there is the Cheese Lady who has some pretty nice things in her little truck. But because of the winds and last night’s rain, we weren’t sure there would BE a market today. BUT…sun is breaking through and...

WHAT’S THAT NOISE OUTSIDE? I’M FEELING WINDED BY THE WIND! As in LOTS of wind out there. Mama has been cuddling me because the sound of so much wind is a bit disturbing to this kitty at times. The windows rattle, the outside furniture blows around, the lemons and kiwis are blown off the tree! It’s WILD around here. So this is my...

TAKE THAT, COMPUTER! I KICK-BOXED MY COMPUTER YESTERDAY WHEN THE PHOTO OF THE TORTILLA GAVE ME A HASSLE!! (I think that worked.) Well, when you want to give a chef his due and say a little about his WONDERFUL tortilla and the %&#^%#&%image of the tortilla will NOT copy and paste, you really are doing a disservice to the star of the blog. SO sorry,...
