So, I hosted my wonderful, hilarious bookclub gals on the last wednesday of May. Of course that's the day Ninja, you might remember her from such posts as. . "I almost birthed my brains out in Colleen's truck while making nasty death noises". . .you can read about that here.
Anyways. . .she decided to give birth during bookclub. . .which made for an eventful night of women randomly wandering through the mudroom checking on the status of the "situation". It was a warm and fuzzy kind of night, I'd never been privy to kittens being birthed and found myself feeling very proud of our NInja and in awe of this amazing gift that is life:) 5 little cats are now huddled in a corner of our house, nursing and growing and mewing. 3 black with white boots, and 2 that are freakishly white, but somehow adorable. The father is from the north side of the yard, we call the wild mammoth cats that live in the north bush, "The Others". . .(ya know, like from Lost?). . .cause they only come out at night, are stupidly large, long haired and so completely wild that they actually gallop. .. I'm not kidding either. .. I'd literally run if confronted. For real. So these kittens are HUGE PAWED and slightly primal looking. .. .should be interesting. . .
Today I'm making 400 bars or BUST. (If Grandpa Snazzy doesn't co-operate I'll be blowing them out at half price again. . so keep an eye open. .. there might be some gorp bars for sale soon. . .and cheap!
Darn moody Snazzy.
At 4:00 sharp Georgia's birthday celebration begins. ..
