    The beginning of nature’s renewal in the Northern Hemisphere…the March Moon is called The Full Worm Moon ….Bluebirds are a sign of spring…warm weather and gentle south breezes they bring.

    And in our Southern Hemisphere… the Harvest crops…leaves changing colors…the smell and warmth of wood fires.

    Fragrance Day sounds delicious! Our Spring hasn’t quite reached that point yet. We do have some snowdrops out, but the daffodils are still swelling at the moment.

    Good morning! Such cuteness…”I never botany”…love that!

    We don’t take a spring break from homeschooling, but son has a break from his pre-Algebra class. We didn’t make it to the zoo on Saturday, so we’re hoping maybe Thursday of this week…we’ll see. I have the cold that’s going around our family, but fingers crossed it won’t be too bad. Cleaning tough house later today.

    Such sweet pics today, but how could they not be–they have cats/kittens in them?! Now what would that Yankee Candle smell like? Whiskers on kittens? Like softness, a light sweet fragrance, and something that makes you smile when you enter the room. Calming, yet makes you want to giggle at the same time! I’ll have to go and get one!! Especially today, it’s MOANday….. 🙄 😉

    You found the whole chowder of silver tabbies, KJ! We talked about nuzzling our kits and how wonderful they smell-that must be the smell of Whiskers on Kittens. 😉

    Good morning – cats and flowers, excellent combo! Hope your cold doesn’t get too annoying, ECB, as we know ‘just a cold’ can be sometimes.
    Hoping that the folks at Yankee Candle have it on good authority what whiskers on kittens smells like. I’m not sure what that would smell like. Just like human babies, kittens draw the fine line between smelling like heaven to smelling like milk! Guessing the candle smells heavenly!
    Ended up with a dusting of snow today that looks like it will melt quickly. Dewey came inside just as I was going to go to bed, so stayed up with him while he warmed up by the fire, took in some scritches, and went on his way. Today he’s sporting a decent cut/scratch on his neck. This is what I don’t miss about having cats that go outside, sigh.

    CWS, takes time, don’t I know it, but hope that day by day you’re feeling somewhat better.
    PG, *laughing with you NEVER at you* chowder? Bowls me over hehehe. Clowder, purrhaps? But yes, silver tabbies rule! As do all kits.
    MS, LOL at Arvin and Tansy. And the foiled Autumn stealth kitty. And tks for COA on that wee meezer!
    ECB, hope that the dratted cold leaves you and soon!
    Now I find myself wondering what “Whiskers on Kittens” smells like. Would try to discern this using Dorry as “volunteer,” but fear that result might be “fangs on face.” The face in question being mine!!!
    Now one of my yarn ordering sites has a shade called “Whisker”:
    http://i1347.photobucket.com/albums/p711/katzjpickz/Picture%201_zpsyfaxp7js.png
    It’s sorta neat, ‘cept I’m avoiding ordering ’til all of my 30 or so sweaters have been made. Well, sorta trying! Now Dorry’s whiskers are black near the roots and then silvery/white. I can purrticularly tell from when one falls on floor and I tickle him with it. I know TMI!
    Got up at o’dark-thirty as 5:20 for 7 am spin class, still racing around like a kitten, but by pm I might find myself cat-napping. l8r.

    I too want a Whiskers on Kittens candle! Cats smell so warm and welcoming – I think so, anyway.

    Maybe we’d get a discount on a bulk order?

    Some gorgeous pics in this thread today. The heather-capped cat made me smile!

    Afternoon wave to Joan with scritches for both indoor LeeMet & outdoor crew! (Aw, Dewey – be careful/No Fighting!)
    Spring has turned the n’hood willow tree from drab brown to a pretty golden glow:

    Well I saw a robin – nope, not outside. But I finally found Dorry’s robin stuffy which I had misplaced some months ago. *smacks self on head* It was under an ottoman which rarely gets moved as it is cumbersome, but today I was looking for something I’d dropped and there it was! Dorry no longer seems all that much interested in his erstwhile fave stuffie, purrhaps he wants me to feel the guilt for a while longer. *Sigh*

    Aww cute pics for Monday! ….. now I’m curious, what DOES ‘whiskers on kittens’ smells like??!!..

    JK, I spit my water out laughing at the ‘no poop’ sign ….. I simply cannot show this to Mr. AV, or he’ll have one in the yard tomorrow! He is always banging on the window when he sees someone walk away after letting their dog poop in our yard, and they don’t pick it up …. drives him nuts! LOL …..

    a strangely cool day here for us, but sunny …. making curry chicken salad for dinner tonight, as I had over half a chicken leftover from the one I roasted Sunday in my brand new oven! L8R all, have a wonderful evening!!

    Looks like signs of spring popping up for TDKr’s, and cooler nights for our So. Hem. TDKr’s. Nice shot of the willow tree, JK, and the poop sign, well let’s just say those who were putting it under snow now have to grow up and dispose of properly. Yay for Dorry’s robin! Leela shows no interest in her ‘love of her life, bff Larry’, though I keep him safe and secure as a fond reminder of her happy kittenhood. Mousie has been missing for a month or so now, as is Mac’s collar; I suspect mousie is wearing Mac’s collar somewhere!. I may have to buy another collar for Mac and put his rabies tag on it, as the one that’s missing has his town license on it. He could get into big trouble if he got out, and he is showing signs of wanting to hang out with the outdoor gang.
    Maybe KM can put a link to Yankee Candle on the TDK Store so we can all buy Whiskers on Kittens.

    Sorry to let everyone down, but I actually looked up Yankee Candle, found the link and
    visited their webpage
    . . . and you all know what I looked for there.

    Not a sign of it anywhere! I wonder if we could persuade them to invent one, especially for us?

    Oh well CWS, purrhaps “Whiskers on Kittens” was too good to be true. But wait, unless it’s only available to a select and private clientele, as in a doc that I watched this pm on shoe designer Christian Louboutin clients, who mentions certain peeps for whom he keeps “models” of their feet for “custom-made” overly expensive and overly uncomfortable shoes, IMHO. Now some yrs back I had a pr of boots custom-made, not all that expensive considering the many yrs of wear that I got out of them, but $1,000 for pr of heels? That kill my feet? No, thanks. But back to orig thread. The “Whiskers” yarn does indeed exist, and if I left it out it would have that special kitty scent courtesy of Dorry using said sweater as purrsonal blanket. And my b-day’s coming up, hint, hint. OK many months to go, but still. Hehehe.

    CWS, I Googled the Whiskers on Kittens scent and low and behold–Amazon has the candle. Unfortunately there are only 4 left in stock at the time I’m typing….it’s says it has a sweet scent with a gentle nuzzle of sandlewood and vanilla musk–for those of us with inquiring minds and a need to know!!! If I look a little longer, I can probably find more somewhere else… 😉

    Inquiring minds HAD to know so I just found said candle on the Yankee Candle site:
    http://www.yankeecandle.com.sg/product-p/1249320.htm

    As you mentioned KZ,
    “A sweet scent with a gentle nuzzle of sandlewood and vanilla musk.
    The traditional design of our My Favorite Things™ signature jar candle reflects a warm, relaxed sense of style that’s always at home. Convenient and easy to use, our large Housewarmer® Jar Candle provides 110 to 150 hours of true fragrance enjoyment.
    Made in U.S.A.” About $42 USD

    Still don’t want to test out the scent by getting into Dorry’s “bubble” hehehe, but purrhaps when he comes to give me my morning kiss, I know again TMI. I would never have believed that such a thing existed either.
    Look at how much excitement you started with that pic, MS! *wink*
