Out To Lunch

Posted by on Mar 5, 2019 | 9 comments

                Alone at last!!! Which means THEY are out to lunch and I’m not sure who’s giving me mine.

Steak Out

Posted by on Mar 4, 2019 | 10 comments

              Wasted No. 1…. Well, the grill worked and I actually had tiny (emphasis on TINY) morsels of the entrecôte (read: steak), which, if you ask me, and no one does, was a bit too thin for my taste but mama prefers veggies and naturally NO ONE is thinking of what I WANT! Still, a little meat every few weeks...

              Loulou, don’t cry. We can have pizza NEXT week! Well, I just realized that one of my favorite blogs for teaching mama how to speak French (I was of course born knowing it) is called French-Word-A-Day, which isn’t quite accurate because one can learns lots more than one word per day from that...

Radical Radishes

Posted by on Mar 2, 2019 | 8 comments

                  I think I should practice for the “throw”… Well, mama has always wanted to save time, go out in the garden in spring after the soil has been ruffled up and just THROW seeds over her shoulder and see what happens.  And so she did that a couple of months ago when the weather was...

Lickety Split

Posted by on Mar 1, 2019 | 10 comments

            I’m exhausted after bathing mama and papa. Lickety spit, mama calls it, my bathing time with her, haha. But tonight I gave mama the bath of a lifetime, both hands and wrists and mama was in heaven.  Do you think it might have had something to do with the loup de mer (sea bass) that mama grilled for dinner?...

Post Haste

            You forgot WHAT? Well, mama is not really quite that du…er…off her rocker, but she just discovered several comments on MY blog that she did not TELL me about and so I’ve just approved them and responded as best I could even if they are out of date! You know, posting is such fun but sometimes I...

Getting Your Goat

              Hey, I’ll bet goats don’t know the Three-Paw-Extension!             Or the Ramadan Reach otherwise called the Sushi Splits (after that OTHER kitty mama had who did a really lousy semblance of yoga)! Well, thanks to a comment by M. McNeil, mama went online to find out...

Yoga Masters

Posted by on Feb 25, 2019 | 12 comments

              First you must contemplate your hind paw to make sure that it, and the other three, will follow your poses spiritually. Well,  you know how I love to keep myself in shape with Hatha Yoga, but I have some competition today for my yoga work out!  Who would have thought? And yes, he really is a cutie-pie, but...

Hunger Games

Posted by on Feb 24, 2019 | 16 comments

            See the state I am in because of what THEY make me do?  I’m suffering! I’m practically a STICK now! So, usually, mama and papa can figure out what it is I need, or want, more to the point, but lately they have NOT been that sharp in the area relating to food consumption, or rather, NON-consumption....

Try A Paw Paw

Posted by on Feb 23, 2019 | 9 comments

            Dreaming that Paw Paw finds a home… Now, here’s the thing.  I don’t know really who reads my ramblings, but Mya’s mama sent me this article about a man who is aware that he might die soon, and he is looking for someone to take Paw Paw, a darling, charming little doggy who has been with him...

Tongue in Cheek

                Practicing for my licks… Well, mama and papa got in really late and I was having trouble with something in my blog and so they really didn’t have enough time to help me finish it off.  But they made blindfolded eggs and toast and mama let me lick her plate. The funny thing is, I don’t...

                  Do you think I could walk and swim like a penguin? Well, mama has been looking for this video for some time because the story was so charming and the little penguin, so cute.

Moody Blues

Posted by on Feb 18, 2019 | 8 comments

            Why would I want to be THERE, when HERE is so much better? Well, mama and papa are puzzling over why I disappear at night and go upstairs to sack out on their bed instead of watching the Roma-Bologna soccer match on the couch where I normally snooze after dinner.  They build a nice fire and I stretch out on my...

Skinny Minnie

            Loulou, you know your papa only wants the best for you, right? Oh, yeah? Except my name is NOT Minnie and I think that to be too skinny is not at all like being too rich, haha.  In fact (I almost wrote ‘fat‘!), my particular roundness is treasured in Italy where females like me are described as...
