Good you got some broccoli rabe :). We just finished Morgana's syrup. Very sad. I would have never spotted Madeline there.
ReplyDeleteWe just got back and picked up Julius from our neighbors'. He was happy to see us again. Now I have to prepare my class for tomorrow.
She really blends in with that chair :) Has Julius completely recovered from his fight?
DeleteOnly his ear looks a bit scratched. He has had lots of ticks lately, some were hard to get out. And today he left us a dead chipmunk on the front steps. I accidentally stepped on it.
DeleteAnd yesterday morning Peter got out of the bed and walked barefoot into the dining-area when he noticed that he had stepped onto the contents of Julius' stomach. But he is a cute cat.
