I am happy to report that our kitties caught their first mouse! Percy caught a fat little guy in the hall just a few minutes ago. We are soooooooooooo happy. Plus the cats have finally stopped crapping in my plants are a using their litter box. Oh the simple joys in life :-)
Not that their was any doubt we were going to keep the cute little critters, but their was debate on whether or not we were going to allow them to stay in the house. I guess that has just been decided.
I've spent the last 13 hours in the kitchen cooking away. We need to make approximately 30 gift baskets for friends and family. I love doing this, but every year I wonder what on God's green earth made me decide to show off and make so much crap. Oh well, I have a reputation to live up to I guess. Ryker says everything tastes really good and I managed to make my first actually "candy". They are orange cream centers surrounded in dark chocolate and they actually look like something you might get in a box of candy. BONUS!!! They actually taste good.
Tomorrow I have about the same amount of work to do, but since most of them need to be delivered tomorrow - I'd better get the lead out and work a bit faster. The kids already hate me because I don't have time to play with them and then they get yelled at for being in the kitchen. I'm just a barrel of fun! Oh well, they'll thank me later when their little tummies are fat with cookies and candy - and I'll hate myself because they won't sleep for 4 days.
Anywho - the kitties are staying, the sweets are yummy and I'm taking my tired ass to bed...more to come later.
