It’s an idea we’ve knocked around for a while, figuring Caligula could use a little sister, but we weren’t seriously looking into breeds and local breeders. Then a woman at work happened to mention that her mother-in-law breeds siamese – bingo! I’ve known a few siamese, they have temperaments all over the board but they’ve […]

Caligula’s birthday party
Caligula has a zillion toys, so this year we just decided to get him one toy, some cat grass and a delicious tuna dinner. Ooooh is that for me? Yay new toy! Attack! Rawr! Then Michael “prepared” a delicious plate of Eukanuba Morsels in Sauce with Select Tuna. Hey food! Eating!
Kitty Birthday!
Happy 3rd Birthday Caligula!

Starting the holiday season
This morning I spilled coffee on myself, down the front of my shirt and onto my pants. I rock. I smell like coffee and the Tide instant stain-remover pen. Last Friday was the company holiday party. I had thought about not going because of the disappointment of last year (not enough seats for dinner, lousy […]

The past few days (I’m mostly talking about food!)
Thanksgiving dinner went well at my mother-in-law’s. I ate so much stuffing. Yesterday morning I made waffles with our new waffle maker. It’s a very nice waffle maker (thanks again !). And although making the batter for waffles is a bit more work than making batter for pancakes, the cooking process is really a no-brainer. […]
Happy Thanksgiving!
The three days of work I had this week flew by, and now I’m enjoying a nice four day weekend. I wish I had more of these. While I was away this past weekend Michael got to discussing our holiday plans (or lack thereof) with Morgana in Maine. She suggested that we come up for […]
