This & That on a very hot Saturday

I need to know if I am the only cat-owner who comes home to find this. My real cat spooning a wooden cat. The wooden cat sits on the table to take up space so that the real cats will stay off the said table. In my home it doesn't work. "Honestly, Ed."

While in the dining room I thought I would show you one of my favorite things that was passed to me from my mother that belonged to my dad's mother, my grandmother. I love these spice holders because they are so unique. After I posted them I realized my spice holders have been  shaken up a bit. :) 

This beautiful plate was given to me by my Aunt Frances for my wedding. I love the detail on it. 

I'm outside having some lunch and killing time before I go to cat-sit.

Thanks to my kids, we have two new comfy chairs to waste away the hours. One has been stained and one left natural. We are playing around with colours.

Here's Joey (aka Josephini) She never stops walking around while I'm there so you are getting the south end of a north bound cat view. (Floofy)

Here she is. She's a pretty girl and she likes me now. She did a figure 8 and then lay down for a tummy rub.She doesn't know this but her mom is feeding another cat on the back deck. Interesting! Maybe next time I cat-sit here there will be 2 lovelies.

Off to a birthday dinner. I have been so good lately so I hope I can find a fabulous meal with not too many calories. I'm thinking salmon........
