Well, mama remembers sparklers as long sticks that shot out silvery sparks on whatever holiday was being celebrated and she loved them! But Monday sparklers are even more important in these uncertain days. One of our favorites is “what other people think about you is none of your business”, haha. I think we’ve mentioned that one before...

Self-ish Sunday

Well, I’m not (but I guess I might be) blowing my own horn but the only selfie I have today is of me, watching me on Bakin’ with Bacon. Mama says I am a narcissist but hey, I was just watching this when she sneaked up and took my pic!  Forgive my self-indulgent Sunday…and besides, mama did a really bad job of photographing my innocent...

TALK ABOUT FUN! Well, I’m a bit overwhelmed at being a sous chef that I can hardly hold my whisk! THANKS, merci to sweet Teddy and mama, Pam, for the invitation to cook up a storm and make one of our favorite pastas – spaghetti alla carbonara.  Bacon and eggs, to narrow it down, and it really is easy peasy. I have to say (mama’s in the other room…)...

Haha, what a cop out! Mama is scolding me for not doing a Wednesday blog but then I REMINDED her that WORD-less means…uh…no words, mama, duh! Still, sometimes I just can’t help rattling on.  So many meows, so few opportunities, haha. Maybe I’ll try one out on mama right now to get a few Dentabites for my poor little teeth. Hah,...

Oh, mama, don’t make me hear these, please.… Mama’s cousin sent these to mama on the day of her brother’s birthday, January 16. Mama’s brother LOVED puns. I’m sure it’s genetic… Dad, are we pyromaniacs? Yes, we arson. She was only a moonshiner’s daughter, but I miss her still. What do you call a pig...

  You think I’m going out in that frigid air? I have sun right here in my CHAIR…er sofa…but it didn’t rhyme. Well, we have wonderfully sunny days, but they are so incredibly COLD.  I don’t really go out with pleasure because I think my arthritis acts up. I sound like mama’s grandma who used to have hers “act...

Well, a couple of kitties came to my attention from mama’s collection  for today’s blog. I had to do my blog really quickly because I was trying to make the bed and THEY deserted me!  That’s the last time I help with housework around here… This was a kitty named Summer belonging to a friend long ago. And this was a kitty named...

Well, today, I just wish to thank all the sparks I read in other blogs because they really mark us with positive thoughts all through the day! This isolation thingy is getting us down, but at least there are the sweet sparks that lift us back up. MERCI! Here’s one for all: If at first you don’t succeed, meow louder! (more loudly?)

Am I coming or going? Well, do you ever find yourself draped over two places that really should be only ONE place on which you could sleep easily but your body had a mind of its own and just parked your derriere  on the arm of a couch and the rest of you slid down and stretched out on the cushion? Does that ever happen to you? Fortunately, mama helped me...

Elegantissimo, no? Well, mama read and a good friend told her that we kitties might be more comfortable eating a bit higher, rather than from dishes on the floor to which we must lower ourselves. Right away, papá constructed an elegant dining table for me and yes, I think I am more comfortable not bending down to munch, thank you, oh brilliant papá!...
