Monday 11-06-2018 – The Season's Right for National Corn on the Cob Day

A little news – Me on the 2nd May 2018 in the Baby Day Cafe- “Ahhhh babies, how I would love grandchildren but I’m still waiting.
Que sera, sera.”
Me on Mothers Day Cafe 13th May 2018 – “We were treated to breakfast cooked by Meegz and SIL and ate it while watching ‘My Cat from Hell’. They brought me a beautiful wooden jewelery box that is a puzzle back from Hawaii for my Mother’s Day present.”
Now I can add that inside the puzzle wooden jewelery box were a pair of handmade dog tags that read ” Token redeemable December 2018, valid for one Grandchild.
😯 😀 😀 😆 😀 😎

Moonshadow, lovely! The only “grandchildren” I ever had was when my late Nadja had three kittens. Lovely minions of darkness, like her (yes, I seem to always have black cats). We weren’t as quick to have cats sterilised 30 years ago.

I’m sad that a neighbour’s beautiful black tomcat has died. The vet said clumping cat litter contains mortar… but his human is also a cigarette smoker. Who knows. I’m sad; I sat him and the two female cats (none are related) while his human was travelling.

Nowhere near sweet corn season around here… In Mayan mythology, the first humans were made of maize … in a sense they were as that was and remains the staff of life in Central America and southern Mexico.

Hey…Ai lubs corms on the cob too! 😆

MS!! CONGRATULATIONS! I know you must be over the moon excited over the thought of a grandchild!! Anticipation makes it even more fun….the planning and excitement as you watch your daughter get ready to become a mother!! I am so happy for all of you.

KJ, got on the site this morning easily, in fact easier than in the last few days. So glad.

Lagatta, I’m sorry for the loss of black tomcat…poor guy.

Good morning – the wee kit with his nip crop is adorable!

Congratulations on your grandma-to-be status, MS! What a clever reveal!

So sorry for your loss of neighbor’s tomcat, Lagatta.

We had corn on the cob last night for dinner. Local corn is not in season yet; this was probably from the mid-Atlantic states and it was delicious!

WooHoo – Grandma to Be, MS!

Happy Grandpa to Be, Mr. MS.

Good morning all from a wild wet windy day. We have a storm circling my area of thew country. It’s not cold(I went outside briefly to toss the birds their breakfast.
Many thanks for all your congratulatory wishes, we are all so excited especially the Daddy to be. His joy is a pleasure to see.
Lagatta that is sad about your neighbours cat dying.
KZ, glad that things are getting back to normal there now after the flooding. A couple of areas that are getting this same weather system have flash flooding, slips, road closures and power cuts. We have had localised power cuts in my city but if that’s all then we are doing well.
PG, love those pics about grandchildren and grandparent duties.
I love corn on the cob but no longer eat it as it’s too starchy.
I am feeling a little better today but still wrapped in blankets and resting. It’s at times like this I wish we had a cat to cuddle up with me and make me feel better.

MS, congratulations!
