Bear cat.

There was no flood. Just a lot of dreariness, which the lettuce enjoyed just as much as I did.


Courtney suggested that I plant lettuce in an old shoe rack, which turned out to be the greatest container-gardening plan ever!


It gets a bit wilty during the hotter parts of the day, but perks back up in the evening.

Here is a photo of a dirty hippie preparing to eat a gigantic cake pop:

(The cake pops were fun to make...and a huge hit at Marvin's work.)

And here is our de-cluttered living room:


Tomorrow I'll try to post about all the great things that have happened this past week, but for now I'm going to leave you with a glimpse of Mr. Eko - the cat that most people have never met. He tends to hide behind the fridge or under the sofa when company comes over, but the rest of his time is spent talking a lot, annoying Derby, trying (but failing) to turn doorknobs to places he'd rather be, searching for the most comfortable lap available, "drinking" with his paws, and looking like a bear cat. He answers to both "Bear Cat"...and "Rain Man," God bless 'im.

P.S. - Here is a picture of a real bear cat for reference. I hear they like to eat bananas.

Hi! I just stumbled across your blog through Blogger. Those are some really cute pictures -- I love the lettuce. And I've been wanting to try and make cake balls for awhile now. I love the idea of putting them on a stick!
