Day Two Hundred and Thirty Nine

Miss Pancake 

My goodness when we got up it was another beautiful as could be day. 

So we went to our farm right away.

After we had our together breakfast. 

And I had a wonderful time. 

Because there is nobody there early in the morning. 

So I ran all over as fast as could be. Ha.

But when we came back Zita told me she had to go downtown today. 

And it was not even downtown Thursday. Oh dear.

And she went in the fast car because she had to do some errands for Craig. 

But Niamh was all awake so I minded her while she tried to remember where she is going to be. All month. 

So I minded her. 

Then Craig was all awake too. 

Because it was so beautiful Niamh walked to her lovely shop. And the car was downtown with Zita. 

Craig did not make his coffee right away so I had a nice good morning nap. 

But when he was all finished talking to people he made his coffee, and we had a cinnamon bun for his breakfast. Ha.

Then it was time for me to look out the windows, before I had my real good morning nap. 

And because it was a Craig and Pancake day I had a very long nap. Until it was my lunchtime.

I was a bit tired today, because I had a very very busy day yesterday. 


Festis and Furrgus 

It is such an unadulterated pleasure awakening to a stunning cloudless day. Almost makes up for February. 

Before going on patrol we had a look at the freshly planted plants, so we could comment with some knowledge when our opinions were requested. 

We were most struck by the Poopy bush. How very very fitting we all agreed.

Then it was off to Wild Oat’s patio for an au fresco breakfast. 

Dugal, who accompanied us today, insisted that we order something besides omelettes. 

He said we were falling into an easy way out rut. He was probably right. 

So we each ordered a double round of blueberry crapes and iced tea.

Keeping to the motif we ordered a few blueberry lemon strudels for dessert. 

We had the foresight to each bring a thermos, which they kindly filled with iced tea to prevent heat stroke on the way home. 

It was only Craig and Miss Pancake guarding the fort we we came home. 

But all was intact so we had our well needed digestive nap.

Miss Pancake 

After my lunch I had a nice outside in my side yard nap. 

But then I smelled something tasty. And I was right.

Our friends the Badgers gave Craig some very delicious short cakes from Scotland for his birthday. My goodness.

Because they are from far away Scotland.

And I got Craig short breads from France.

Because Bouviers all used to live in far away France. 

Ha. That is very interesting. 

And when he finished his lunch I got a little piece, and it was very tasty. 

And then I got to lick all the crumbs off the plate. Good for me. 

Then I went back to sleep. 

Right on the floor in the living room. Where it was nice and cool.

Craig and I went outside for a little bit. 

But there were mosquitoes trying to bite me. 

And I could not catch them.

So we went back inside. Too bad for those mosquitoes 

Last night when Niamh got home she and Tarryn made Japanese noodles for their very very late dinnertime.

And I stayed up to help them, even when it was past my bedtime. Ha.

So when I went to bed Craig and Zita were fast fast asleep.

So I jumped right up on the bed to give them their good night kisses. Good for me.

They were very surprised. 

But I did not forget to say good night. Good for me. 

My friend Sach drove Niamh and Tarryn to my house so they could change their clothes.

They were in the noisy Jeep. 

And tonight that Jeep did not even have any doors. Or a roof. Oh my goodness. That is a silly car. 

Craig and Zita had sausages for their dinner. 

I got a little bit of very tasty potato. It fell onto the floor. Ha. 

Then it was time for our detective program.
