Keeping up Appearances!

Keeping Up Appearances
Hello My Darlings!

I expect my American friends are resting nicely after their Thanksgiving holiday.

My my, I am really jealous!  I can imagine all that chicken, ham and turkey that I missed out on....and now will have to wait until Christmas - sigh.  In a meantime, I might get the kitchen staff to prepare a little 'organic chicken' just for me!

The British love to "Keep Up Appearances"! Which reminded me of the sit-com on PBS of the same name.  My favorite character was Hyacinth Bucket (pronounced "Bouquet) played by actress Patricia Rutledge. Hyacinth, who once wrote a book of "Etiquette for the Socially Less Fortunate" . A women after my own heart, I closely associate with (even though she is human)...a great Diva herself!!

 This was my favorite show, all about humans and their relationship with their families.  It certainly beats chasing mice around the room - that can get boring after a while!! LOL

My human always brings me a saucer of milk, and I have trained her to do so on Que!
Well MY Darlings, in life wherever you are, whatever you are doing! Keep Up YOUR appearances!Play the part - do you know who your audience is.......keep them laughing.
