  1. It's muggy and hot this morning, with impending thunderboomers. Lighting arcs across the sky, and a few teasing raindrops fall ahead of the coming deluge...

    Kitties scurry into the Breakfast Cafe before the storm, relieved they don't have to dry themselves before getting started :-)

    They busily start setting up the steam tables and the clacking of dishes is heard as the older kittens set the tables. Babykits do what they can to help, folding napkins neatly with a little pat :-)

    Meezers start singing in the kitchen as the ham and sausage and bacon sizzle on the griddle, and the smell of fresh-baked pastries fills the air.

    KA-BOOM! The storm begins outside, but here in the BC, it's a fine summer morning, with good smells and happy cats singing. Come on in!

  2. Morning, Siobhan, it's freezing here. I've just got myself a cup of coffee and then I think when I've drunk it, I'm off to me warm bed. I would love some warm fresh brioches with apricot confiture for brekky please, and a big soup bowl of cafe au lait :)

  3. Monring JCat! Comin' right up....

    *Three kits set to making up a giant cup of cafe au lait, while an orangie nabs three small brioches still warm from the oven, and sets them, along with a little pot of apricot confiture, onto a pretty plate. Then to the Wormhole Delivery Chute (tm) and WHOOSH! off it goes!*

  5. Ooh thank you, that looks so yummy.
    *Scritches little orangie on the head and gives him a smooch as well.*
    Morning, Gini, do you have a busy day today?

    Posted 8 months ago by jcat #

  6. Hi Gini! One stack o pancakes comin' up..... how are da boyz?

    Posted 8 months ago by Siobhan #

  7. Jcat luckily today isn't super busy - just one class (although that turns into a 5 hour event - 3 hr class plus 2 hrs driving)! Friday is my relaxing day. Monday through Thursday is crazy (gone 12-15 hrs each day).

    Sio the boys are fantastic! Feeny is lounging on the couch and Taco is grooming himself under the table.

    How are the both of you doing today? The kitties?

  8. I can hardly think of a finer breakfast than scrambled eggs, toast, and bacon all served up by kitties. Good morning all! Can't wait for the triple digit heat to pass, today should be the last day of it.

    Posted 8 months ago by anncetera2 #

  9. Hello Ann! Yikes - triple digits! We have been lucky enough to not go above 100 in a couple of weeks. The high here today is 78..beautiful :)

    Posted 8 months ago by gini #

  10. *Kitties prepare food requests busily*

    The ladies were in a romping mood this morning, even though the temp didn't drop below 78 last night. Silly girls! Willow's neck owie has healed completely, I couldn't even feel the scab last night. Little wiggleworm was hard to hold long enough to check, but she's just fine.

    Hermes ambles slowly to the bedroom to see me almost every morning. He often misses morning treats that the kittens get, because he'd rather see mommy. :-)

  11. Morning everyone!....... I'll take an egg and griled cheese sami, please! ...... been getting a lot of rest with my week off, and now going into another long weekend!...... I might forget how to 'work'! LOL...... not really, but it is nice to 'recharge' my batteries!

    ..... I've had a great opportunity to do some of the things I love - read, try new receipies, and do major cleaning/overhauling of the house........ tonight I think Mr. AV and I will drive out to hear a friend's band play and listen to some good music!....... hope everyone has a fun and safe holiday weekend!

  12. Hi, Ann! Saw that you were starting a new job soon. Hope you love it and that it loves you!

    Hi, AV, aren't long weekends great?

    Gini, Millie is fine, she's asleep on my knee and Libs is very slowly getting a wee bit better, she actually slept in the house, in her basket in front of the heater for several hours last night. I wish she and Millie could make friends...

    Posted 8 months ago by jcat #

  13. Morning, all. I just finally got my dumb MRI scheduled; I'm doing it the Saturday of the weekend Mr. K is away since it's supposed to be crummy weatherwise & I probably won't be able to do the things I was planning. At least I'll get something done.

    Hooray for Libs sleeping inside! Good girl! Patience and persistence Jcat, patience and persistence :)

  14. Morning, Kilroy, glad you have an appointment for the MRI, even if it is on your free weekend.

    Yep, I'm feeling much more hopeful. It's much easier to be patient if you can see a wee bit of progress...

    Posted 8 months ago by jcat #

  15. yay! for Libby!........ silly girl, you know you WANT to be in that comfy basket by the heater....... can't let that little 'thing' on Meowmy's shoulder stop you from claiming your creature comforts! LOL

    .... Kilroy, I'm sure Georgie is receiving 'instructions' right now through the wormhole from all the 'nurse' kitties here on TDK....... he'll know just what to do to make you feel better ;)

    Posted 8 months ago by AV #

  16. Oh, and I forgot to ask, may I have a stack of blueberry pancakes with butter & warm maple syrup, pretty please? :)

    Posted 8 months ago by Kilroy #

  17. *Sends little orangie back through wormhole with a stack of pancakes for Kilroy.*

    Well, it's too chilly and way past the witching hour, think I'm off to bed with Miss Millie and, as usual, leaving the back door open into the garage for Libs. Have a great Friday, all, the weekend's nearly here!

  18. OMG....I think I've just lost it......Thursday that is!! I just saw the date on the cafe thread & thought it was wrong. Looked at the puter clock & GASP!! I swear I thought yesterday was Friday. Yay!! That means I've got an extra day!! Good thing I didn't have any appts.
    With that said....I need anything that will feed the memory part of the brain please. With a Big cup of Cinnamin Mocha java to snap my mind awake. I got no sleep at all last night.
    Oh...Good Morning Littermates!!

  19. Mmm fresh baked pastries smell yummers Sio...thanks for organizing the cafe kits today! It is very humid in brewtown, felt like a wet hen when I got to work, glad we have AC! Woo hoo last day before my vaca starts so will earn my keep but first a big ol'cuppa joe and an apricot bear claw will hit the spot! Waves to anyone still hanging around, now a smooch for Tux but hopeful back in a bit...

  21. Thanks, JK; you're always such a sweetie and so cheerful. Your posts always make me smile (and not entirely because of your avatar :) )

  22. Hi, Everyone! Stormy and steamy? We are just hoping that the new storm might decide to come ashore around Brownsville, TX which is our best hope for any rain.

    Does anyone have exciting plans for the weekend?

    Posted 8 months ago by WillowandWindismom #

  23. I wouldn't call it exciting, but Mr. K & I are planning to take a walk down to the area where the World Trade Center used to be to see how things have changed. I haven't been since MCW was here.

    Posted 8 months ago by Kilroy #

  24. Morning all! I want what Kilroy's having...booberry pannycakes with syrup. NOM NOM NOM :)
    I've got some stuff to do lined up for this weekend...just hoping Mother Nature cooperates :/ Supposed to have storms tonight/all day tomorrow. I wish I could send the storms WWM's way instead! :)

  25. Hi all. Sitting in the lovely heat @sisters garage sale. Whoopee!! Well my moms kitten was gone today. She looked everywhere for him. She was sad. I told her to keep looking and she said she would

    Posted 8 months ago by mollycat71 #

  26. Oh no, MC! I hope the kitten comes back & your mom can bring him inside.

    Posted 8 months ago by Kilroy #

  27. Tutu Mama...(you know who you are).... Start thrusting those hips westward right now!!! Texas will be grateful for your efforts. Here is some motivation for you!!

  28. Coming in for some ice java...whew, it is even a bit warm in here today too! Aw Amy, maybe mom can do the tuna trick & he'll show up as her furever newbie!

    Posted 8 months ago by jeankit #

  29. 12p - don't encourage her!!! I don't know how she did it, but it's been raining here for weeks - not just our regular summer afternoon rain, either!

    I managed to get six hours of sleep last night - yay! Still will try for a nap later. I'm worried about Bobby - he hasn't taken to the move very well. I think he has a fever last night and this morning but he seems to have cooled down now. I know stress can raise their temp so I'm hoping that's what it is. He just ate some treats and ventured out from under the bed and now is grooming himself, do I cancelled his vet appointment - don't want to stress him out taking him to the vet if it's just stress.
    Milo, surprisingly, is doing well. Wanders all over the house and checks everything out. He may even like it here - though I'm sure he won't admit it :)

    I'm dogsitting today - Monday and feel very bad having to leave the boys. I may leave the dog alone overnight tonight just to keep an eye on The Bobster. And I'll be coming and going anyway, hanging out with the boys and checking in on them.

  30. Oh, NO!!!! Now I have that song stuck in my head!!!! 12P, how could you????

    We are doing a 61 mile bike ride tomorrow. The downside is it will be hot - as if that was a new thing! The upside is that we are having our traditional pre-ride lunch today of Mexican food. Ole!!
