Daily Photo: Brothers in a Basket

Brothers in a basket.

It’s a chilly afternoon and there’s no one as good as your brother to cuddle with in the basket that doesn’t really fit both of you. That makes for a warm and comfy all-day nap for Jelly Bean and Giuseppe.

Today’s cooking episode: Kale Soup. Good thing I’ve got the recipe memorized.

What other photos have I shared on or around this date?

We had an international incident here today. Wait…maybe it wasn’t that Brussels. No, it was probably Brussels sprouts instead. But in any case. I caught some photos of Sunshine and Giuseppe and their disgusted expressions and thought that was pretty funny.

Come on boys, I don't like your food!

But then Basil got in on the act and decided he had the little round things figured out and pulled one out of the pan and chased it around the room! I have to say that I really don’t let my cats play with my food, but it was pretty funny to watch them check out my food and give me slightly frightened looks.

The best expression was the one at the top, though, when Basil saw me eating the Brussels sprouts. I hope I haven’t scarred his delicate psyche to see me eating his toys.

This is from last year, and though I’ve discontinued my sampler box program I can still pack up a previous one for you if you are interested. This box was pretty popular.

Mimi was pressed into service again today because I had to reshoot the photos of the sampler box from yesterday. Dappled sun is beautiful, but it sure makes it difficult to see the detail in a piece of artwork. Mimi was politely looking at the contents of the November Feline Sampler Box, but then the squirrel hopped onto the bird feeder and she had no interest in my silly stuff. So have a good look at our sampler box!

      And Basil will tell yo8u they are much better toys than food.
