“Are you sure they said 11:00? I don’t see anything in there but a roasting pan. Are we too early?”
(That picture was taken back in 2009, the first and last year we ever raised turkeys. I always say that God created chickens and then he said “Huh. I wonder if I could make something dumber than a chicken” and he did.)
Happy Thanksgiving, Americans!
Happy Thursday, non-Americans!
I am thankful for stuffing and pie and the fact that I don’t have to cook because we’re going to the in-laws’ house for gumbo (made by a real Cajun, Fred’s stepfather). But I am MOST thankful for all of y’all, who come here every day to enjoy the pictures and stories I share. You guys are AWESOME, and I hope you have a wonderful day!

Busy monkeys.
“Keepin’ an eye on you, lady.”
I could spend all day kissing that little face, if he’d let me.
She is JUST. SO. GORGEOUS.
I love the blotches of black on his mostly-pink toebeans.
Sooner or later, they all end up in that wall basket bed.
Jethro always requires some coaxing to come over to me.
Hangin’ in the ess.
There might have been a feather teaser involved here.

Tommy would like to assure you that the grass in the back yard is nothing nearing this green right now; this picture is from June. Right now, the back yard is all brown and dead-looking, and he spends more time inside than out, because he’s hibernating.

Adding a “ditto” to everything everyone has said. You and Fred rock! 😀
I’m “ditto-ing” everyone else’s comments too. Can’t thank you enough, Robyn and Fred, for everything you do for the kitties and for entertaining us with them through this blog. This is a highlight of every day!
P.S. — forgot to ask you, Robyn, could you add the following in Friday’s post, if it’s not too late (I know you do each day’s post well in advance…):
Thank you to the reader who gave wonderful suggestions when I asked for feedback last week for my Tuxie t-shirt design. I especially loved her suggestions for other cats to feature. I need to find the appropriate graphic for those, but once I do, I’ll definitely be doing some of those as well.
