Fry Day

Fry Day

Posted by on Mar 31, 2023 | 21 comments

I feel another snooze coming on… Well, we will happily fill in and, I hope, fill UP tonight with filets of white fish called cabillaud rolled in corn meal and sautéed in olive oil until nice and crisp and served with lemon wedges. Drool….. Hey, don’t worry, little fishies, mama is looking for bigger swimmers… 😸😸😸 1. __One nap down,...

Thankful Thoughts

Hey, mama, when are YOUR tomatoes going to grow? This looks like weeds to me! Well, today is full of thanks for Solensia, the med that helped Ernie jump up on the bed (!) and for B12 for my back legs so that I can jump, too, and for all of the magic meds that seem to be helping so many kitties. And anthros. And for the price of insulin coming down...

Tickled Tuesday

Well, papa was asking mama if she had put me on the bed in our guest room and mama had not done it, and there I was, up on the bed!  Mama thought to measure the bed height and found that the BIG bed (THEIR bed) was 24 inches off the ground and the guest bed was only 22 inches!  Guess which one I could jump on? Love my new found freedom, as it’s...

Helping Hands

Helping Hands

Posted by on Mar 27, 2023 | 18 comments

Just groovin’ here next to mama’s leg… I think a sparkle for today goes something like this:  We all need a heping hand at one time or another so have your hand ready to help those who might need it. In love, in war, in poverty, even in riches, as there are many who do not lack for a buck but lack for luck… Mama had hers ready last...

Well, today we are doing Rolling Selfies, as I would not stay still enough for mama to get a good calm shot! Hey, what the heck. Maybe we should have called it Sunday Squiggles… I’m just gettin’...

Well, yes, another title stretch since they did NOT fill my teeth in any way but instead disappeared several! It’s hard to get titles with “ fill in” in them.  Maybe next time, “take your fill” or “parafillnalia”, haha.  Okay mama will get us down to business and do this one: 1. My favorite (well, one of them) character from a film, tv or book is __Anthony...

  Well, I seem to have a drinking problem. I drink quite a bit of water, but my nice doc says it’s normal with diabetes and I need to get the sugar out of my system. Fine with me. I am thankful for so many things, I wish there were one big thankful basket into which I could put all of my merci, grazie, gracias and more, but for today, I am...

YAY YAY…walking to (sniff) dinner! (Munch, munch) DINNER!!!! I never knew getting my teeth clean would make dinner so exhausting, haha! It was no trouble, just...

Tuesday Tripping

Tuesday Tripping

Posted by on Mar 22, 2023 | 14 comments

Not literally, as in falling over those WEIRD shoes mama bought that feel like clouds and look like gunboats, whatever those are! But tripping in the sense that THEY are taking one to see their grand-anthros and others in Italy after so long and I think mama’s head is already in the trip clouds–taking this, not taking that, things for the kids,...

Remember that vintage photo of the kitty hanging on to a rope? We really like this for today. There was no copyright info but the photo was on the Clappison Animal Hospital site. I’ll bet they are a good one! “When you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot in it and hang on.” -Franklin D. Roosevelt LOVE that “knot”...

Snoozie Selfie Yet Again

Snoozie Selfie Yet Again

Posted by on Mar 19, 2023 | 18 comments

You know, mama was simply overworked today and I did manage to wangle this selfie out, whatever wangle means, as I drifted off to dreamland. I was up on the bed inside my duvet and what are you going to do? Jump off the bed and run around like a crazed weasel? On SUNDAY? No way, Jose. Have a peaceful snoozie...

The Fine Art Of Bed Making

The Fine Art Of Bed Making

Posted by on Mar 18, 2023 | 14 comments

Well, today, I am going to demonstrate how artfully one can deal with bed-making when the act of said chore GETS IN THE WAY OF SNOOZING IN ONE’S SUN PUDDLE! Being a kitty is an art, after all. Place oneself exactly in the puddle, and leave the conscious world. NO ONE will dare to disturb you, especially if you’ve been to the dentist and need...

These fill-ins are exhausting some days. But then, any excuse for a snooze…. . If one doesn’t __explore under and over and behind the place you think you think you lost something, then one doesn’t deserve __to find it, haha. 2. What happens at __an older age, if one_ stays at _say, 25? (Well, good to stay at 25 in some respects, or even 5, haha)...

Just so thankful for so many wise words that helped mama and papa with that (PAST!) teeth event – again, merci, merci! We are also thankful for our nice Dr. Joubert who did the deed, and thankful for a very good veterinary clinic only 25 minutes from our little village. A class act, if you ask me, and many did, haha. All the nurses and helpers and...

What’s this “worisome” and “toothless” twitter, mama? I came through with flying…er…teeth! Thank you ALL so much for your help with my Dental Day! I was taken in at 8:30 and the sweet secretary called at 11:30 and said, “Loulou’s awake and will be ready at3:15 to go home.” And mama cried, yes, she...

Brain Drain from Tuesday Toques

  I am doing a imitation of mama’s cerebral matter, since she completely forgot to put our new Spinach Polenta recipe in my blog yesterday. And I forgive her, knowing how nervous Nellie she is about today’s teeth trauma! Let’s not call it that, let’s call it Pearly Whites Wonder Work, okay? So here’s mama’s polenta...

Ticking Off Teeth Time

OK that’s a stretch in the title, but I am counting off the minutes until they’re going to take me to the vet in the morning early with no food and no insulin and no anything and start working on these ivories. The vet says he never touches those long ones (see brownish one above, jeez) so at least I  can nip if need be. Just funnin’, as I am not a nippy...

it’s so nice when your mama comes in and covers you up when you’re having a little snooze… 💕💕💕 Try this out: If you think something and it makes you feel really good then it’s a good thought but if you think something and it makes you feel really bad it’s a bad thought and that’s my spark for today. We’re trying to think good thoughts because I have to...
