Christmas Eve - December 24, 2012

All done and dusted we are ready for CHRISTMAS!

Hello MY Darlings!

It's Christmas Eve and I have made it!

All the shopping is done, presents wrapped,
homemade cranberry sauce is resting in the fridge like a soft wind surrounding the Canadian Rockies!

The musical dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies echo's gently in the background. Drifting into the evening like a flowing cape against the back-of the night sky.



Strategy: How to make space under the tree?
I of course am whining (howling) as I know there is a Organic Chicken in the fridge.  My housekeeper has taken away the key to the larder as she know I will snoop!!!


There isn't much room under the tree anymore....

I've promised to be very good and not snoop

I take "Great comfort and joy" that everything is done!!  I expect you have had a busy time too, and perhaps like me am a little exhausted!

Well-deserved Cat nip - break - phew....

Well, the phone and email correspondence has been busy, family and friends calling.  This is a lovely time of the year to 'natter' (not a birds)
and have as the Brits say "have a chin wag"!!

Stories around the fire and a little 'smile' as humans call it.  I will have a warm dish of MILK!

Snack Size
We have many blessings to be thankful for (chicken, turkey, catnip, a warm place to sleep and a residence groomer and if you are lucky a "Lady in Waiting)!

MY young countess Whippet friend said "Always leave a little room, push yourself away from the table when full".....

MY Auntie Ness loves these
Have a wonderful Christmas MY darlings, peace, joy and much happiness.....rest now and tuck those paws in for a good-night sleep.

Cat's Eye's only Cool

Trees, come in different shapes, sizes (just like humans LOL)!! . The traditional 'natural trees' are my favorite . I love to run up and sniff the pine needles. (Thinking...ummmm) Oh yes......the last time I did this I got sap stuck to my nose, then a piece of wrapping paper got attached!!!!!!  I kept sneezing and sneezing (piff, piff, HELP), my "Lady in Waiting" came to my assistance.

We now have the artificial ones, which are better suited to my disposition!
 
I love the new LED lights, these are extra special...red, blue, pink find out more on my next blog post what colour will they be???


"T'was the Night Before Christmas, not a creature was stirring not even a MOUSE"....."

Cozy and warm, the promises to come:


Gather around DEAR MY DARLINGS........with a warm saucer of milk or a your favorite

There is 'butter' in the pastry!! YUM
Tipple or two..........................Mince tarts!!!!
