We ended 2014 wiff a different trio of kitties dan we started wiff (only Travis is still wiff us) It were real sad losin' Jezebel and Maurice to da Rainbow Bridge dis year (and Charlie in 2013 )... here's hopin' dat 2015 sees evfurrybuddy here happy and healthy and full of vim and vigor!!
Here's my New Year's photo... I wuz wishin' Whit's Momma would hurry up and give me da cookie...
As ya can see, da ear on da left (my right) are gittin' bedder... it's startin' to stand back up. So I guess ole Santa came thru fur me... plus, I gots lotsa toys and clothes, so's I's not complainin....
Da kittens wuz funny on Chrissymus... dey liked da boxes best of all... can you spot Crockett???
Chrissymus wuz a lot of fun, and I evfun had Momma take a picture of da furst round of bakin', so's you could see whut I wuz talkin' 'bout before...
Startin' wiff da bundt cakey thing in da upper left corner, dat are a Bacardi rum cake, made wiff, of course, Bacardi rum and pecans...goin' in a clockywise direcshun, next are Sandies, also known as Mexican wedding cakes, then Tollhouse cookies, peanut butter blossoms, pumpkin bread, lemon tea bread, and da brittles-- peanut and pecan. In da middle are da Spritz cookies... dey seemed to confuserate sum pups da most.... dey are a butter cookie and made wiff a cookie press... If yer Momma's is interested, dis are da recipe dat Momma uses, it are whut her Momma used, and it are da recipe of da former furst Lady of da USA, Mamie Eisenhower. All I knows is dat it are yummy-- yeah, I gots a coupla of dem... lucky me!!!
All dose yummies is now gone, and Momma are gonna make sum more goodies, but she are gonna wait until Friday.. See, Whit's Momma and my Daddy are gonna go down to San Antonio to see UCLA play at da Alamadome in da bowl game dere on Friday... dey are gonna eat some great Mexican food, see sum football, and Whit's momma will git sum Margaritas... my Momma are gonna watch us pups, and Crockett & Travis...
Speakin' of Crockett & Travis... dese two are sumthin' else... just look at dis picfur.... whut a bromance dese two has....
Angelique are doin' gud... in fact, I fink she are gonna rule dose two... big surprise....not. bol, bol....
Right now, dat lil princess stole MY momma's lap... whut da woof? I already has to shares wiff Crockett... and Momma cleaned her ears dis mornin'.... ya fink she might still be mads er sumthin'... but no, she are loungin' in Momma's lap.
Where are I supposed to sit??? hmmmmmmm..............
If any of ya read Whitley's New Year's resolutions on da 31st, ya saw how it included more barkin'... repeatedly. So considerin' dat, I thought I'd write some of my own...
FINLEY'S NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS FUR 2015...
1. Get sum earplugs
2. Steal sum more cat food
3. Kill more varmints.
4. Git Whitley to quit " checkin' fur zombies underground" and git to walkin' on our walks
5. Beg Momma fur earplugs
6. Git more treats
7. Guard Momma's lap from zombies.... and lil gurl cats
8. Steal sum cotton to make my own earplugs
9. Guard da barbeque ( I already duz this, but why not resolve to do dat which ya luvs to do?)
