Thank you Lola and Lexy

Every year, a gift exchange is organized in the Cat Blogosphere (thank you Paula!). A few days ago, we received a big package: this year, our Secret Paws were Lola et Lexy, and their greeting card was attached to the gifts.

All the presents were beautifully wrapped in rustling paper, it was fantastic: even the packaging was in itself a gift !


Claire received a lovely scarf, a nice lid cup and a colorful potholder, and we received an irresistible fruit assortment, a tunnel and bonito flakes! Did I mention that the fruit came from Yeowww?

After a good dose of… uh… lemon, I went to explore the tunnel, and you know what? It’s a rustling tunnel! It makes rustles when you play with it, I love it!

And since I’m kind, I even shared my lemon with Zorro.


Thank you so much, Lola and Lexy (and their human Dawn), you spoiled us!

Ready for Christmas

While I was enjoying the garden, Claire and Pixie had a lot to do inside. This weekend was long reserved for the preparation of cards and packages to be sent for Christmas. Because we have a lot of friends overseas, everything has to be ready at the beginning of December.

Today is also the first Sunday of Advent, and Claire finished the wreath just in time: let the countdown to Christmas begin !

Good job !

For 15 years, we had an old, ugly laundry room that looked like this:

Things got a little better when the kitchen was redone: Claire and Momo took advantage of the presence of the workers to already change some pipes and put tiles on the floor. It was a first step.

This fall, Momo did everything else, and here’s the result.

Not bad, huh ? Of course, he wouldn’t have succeeded without my help and supervision !

Sweet thoughts to our friend Nicole whose sweet Dingle has just crossed the Rainbow Bridge to join Ficelle.
