Well if you didn’t know there had been a birth in this house, you might think someone died! Every day a florist’s van pulls up and delivers flowers. Everyday a friend comes and brings either food for dinner or a cake! Today has been a banner day for both. Bonita, one of Chiara’s friends dropped by with a cake to die for! And then that would make this a house to die in. Anyway, the cake is moist, not too sweet, laden with chocolate chips and banana. I had a piece after lunch and oh my! I insisted she call Bonita and tell her just how delicious her cake was.
We have cake and we have the cat. Pasha seems to be marking all of the baby’s furniture and making it his own. In fact yesterday Pasha was sleeping in the baby’s bassinet. Chiara is one of those moms who yell out, “Did you wash your hands before you touch the baby”? And let’s not forget the extra large bottle of Purell that greets you as you walk in the door. Bearing in mind all the admonitions that myself and others have received, I thought it best to point out something to her. So I just casually asked if Pasha had washed his paws after he came out of the litter box before he hopped into the bassinet? Mmmmmm.

Of course if you’re a cat you can choose and change your napping place anytime you want to.

Sorry I couldn’t get closer but I was using my phone and was afraid he’d hop out.
We have been getting such gorgeous floral arrangements. Some have already been tossed because Pasha, yes the cat ate some. So now all of flowers are up high on the credenza in the dining room where we NEVER eat, NEVER walk into and now it could be one of those rooms like in the old days, a mourning room.
