More Kitty Fun

Jules figured out how to climb all the way to the top of the screen on the sliding glass doors.

I have trouble making him get down because:

1) it's too high for me to reach :)
2) he weighs so little, that it does not affect the screen one bit
3) he looks so cute and proud that he got all the way up there

The big fat piggy, Sinatra, on the other hand, likes to claw the heck out of the screen...

Kitty Fun

Well, our new little guy, Julius, seems to be as different as possible from Sinatra. He loves people food. For example:

ranch dressing- this is the latest find

popcorn

cheese

bread

hummus

potato salad

jalapeno mac n' cheese

blueberry cobbler

NOT raw carrots :)

Folks, we did not FEED him these things, nope, these are the things he snatched while we weren't looking! When I say snatched, I mean that he jumped up and took off with half a sandwich, like a flash of lightning! He's not even big enough to fit that in his mouth. He had to drag it along. So, of course, inedible by the time I managed to get it back. Did I mention he's really fast?

Also, when I got to work this morning, I found his little mouse in my purse. He must have put it there because he loves me :)

Extras- come and get em'

I have some plants to give away. I planted my herbs from seeds, and many of them took.

I have tons of extra oregano, and a few extra basil plants. If anyone wants one of these, I can transfer it to a styrofoam cup and bring it to church.

I also planted poppy flowers from seeds, and have a bunch of extra of those, if anyone wants flowers.

Another Recipe...

These may become one of our signature starches

Garlic Mashed Potatoes with Mongolian Fire Oil

Yummy and uniquely flavored.

Matthew also suggested having a "bacon menu" that lists all our top dishes, with some sort of bacon addition.

Typical.

We Caved...

and rented a season of LOST from the library.

The first season. When you're finding out the past lives of approximately 600 different characters, as they learn to survive on an enchanted-haunted-island, as hunted prey to some monster

So needless to say, I've been late to work a couple of mornings this week :)

Orange Julius

We did get a new kitty, and his name is Orange Julius, Jules for short.

He's teeny and orange and totally cute!

Will someone let me borrow their camera to take some pics and post them? Mine's brokee :(

A New Recipe!

Guess what?? I got very excited about the picnic we had on Sunday, and we all know that makes me a little zealous, so I decided to make us a gourmet picnic.

We think one recipe was good enough to add to our restaurant menu. What do you think?

Jalapeno-marinated pork tenderloin sandwich with lemon tarragon mayonnaise
