Cats like me, because I treat them like cats, not dogs. I ignore them and if they want to have something to do with me, they're free to.

Just hope Rosie's Cats like you or Rosie will have to get her own apartment. :)

I can't be sure, but I think the squirrels figgered out how to open up the suet cage I had for the birds. Got 'em a treat this week, it was peanut flavored. Was hangin' open empty this mornin'.

Maybe it'll clog their arteries.

My boss reported having such a plague of squirrels around his house (well inside the city), he bought a pretty-good BB gun with a scope and has become quite a sniper.

I worry about that fella sometimes.

Nah, I'll just lock myself in my room and ignore the critters.

We just got back from seeing "Miss Saigon" at the local Community Theatre. It was very good, and the girls loved it. I was a bit taken aback at the first scene though in the, ahem, bordello. Kinda raucus, but all these girls are high schoolers, so I hope their Mamas won't be too upset at us Girl Scout leaders taking them to see such a den of iniquity! ;o)

I put the fixins for a loaf of Garlic-Cheese bread in the bread machine and put it on the timer to be done just about the time we get home from Church. I'm doing an experiment with the ham. Instead of having to have the boys remember to turn the oven on and set the cook timer, my friend Cynthia gave me an interesting way to do the ham in the crock pot! So I've got my 8 1/2 lb. spiral sliced ham sitting in a mixture of gingerale and the spicy mix that you'd normally use for the glaze. It sure smelled good when I mixed it up and poured it over the ham! Got it on low, and it will be done about the same time as the bread. All I'll have to do is cook up some frozen green beans and mix them with some buttery roasted almonds. The salad's already done, so we'll be able to eat before 1pm. Woo Hoo!

Then I can make the chocolate Easter Bunnies I never got around to on Sat. afternoon! I've already mixed up a sugar free raspberry truffle filling and a sugar free dark chocolate hazelnut truffle filling. I'll do the regular chocolate hazelnut filling in the afternoon. That's the one that SSQ and Paul want in their Easter Bunnies!

Sounds normal to me.

The ham we're having is a honeybaked ham - precooked and ready to eat. They're expensive but goooood!

Getting ready for church here... must ingest caffeine...

Happy Resurrection Sunday, in case anyone here is harboring a secret "Easter's adapted from pagan holidays" urge.

I shall be having a very interesting Easter dinner, since half the guests are non-Christians from very different cultures, and half the rest are 'cultural Christians' only. Who knows, might be an opportunity.

Alleluia!!

We did a Postlude today that was a variation on "Ode To Joy", one of my all time favorite choral pieces. We done good! The Holy Spirit was a movin through us, for sure!
