I gave Mister Kitty a bath. His fur was looking awful and the dandruff was bad. Thank god he is a cat who LOVES a blow dry. Still cranky and slightly damp, but he made out with the hairdryer.
Wash: Little River just gets more colorful by the moment. What'll she do next? Zoe: Either blow us all up or rub soup in our hair. It's a toss-up. Wash: I hope she does the soup thing. It's always a hoot, and we don't all die from it.

When I was a kid, my best friend's brother (about 6) went through a vegetarian phase after learning that hamburgers came from cows. This lasted about a week until he realized that being a vegetarian meant having to eat his vegetables.
HA! That's pretty funny.
Noah, I think has already has inkling where his food comes from as we tend to say things like, "It's chicken! Bawk bawk!" Or "No, that's not bawk bawk chicken, that's pig chicken" (or cow chicken).
We're sorting clothes for consignment. this blows. I AM not doing this again. I don't think. Until it's time to sell the crib.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I dunno. I'm kind of envious. The one kids' consignment store I know of in SF went under the week before I got all our stuff sorted out. OTOH, I suppose our loss will be Kalliope's gain (it's all 6-18M stuff, so probably all too small for Gracie--though I do have some bigger girl things set aside for her as well; Matilda hasn't even had a chance to wear most of the warm weather stuff).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I just read so many posts... I am crazy out of practice. I don't think I can keep up this pace of posting so many times in a week if I'm going to insist that I actually follow along with the conversation. Anyway:
YAY, GRACE!
Elizabeth is a totally awesome name.
You guys and your meat talk have made me really hungry. And it doesn't help that I've been craving ribs for, like, a week and a half.
Where did Saturday go?
Oh, and thanks, ita, for all the awesome Alias memories! Good times.

Hi Alibelle!
I just tried some of the jarred Greek giant beans from Trader Joe's. These are really good.

I just saw that John Mayer is coming to Memphis for a concert and bringing Michael Franti and Spearhead with him. So conflicted about putting money in the douche's pockets in order to hear the opening act in person...

Maybe someday I should just walk into some guy's dairy farm and ask if I can throw some hay down for the cows....
Maybe see if there's a Crop Mob? [link]

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
When Christopher was five, his great grandmother took him out to collect eggs from their hen house. A chicken pecked him and they had chicken for dinner that night.
My grandmother had chickens and I never gathered eggs that I wasn't attacked. Every single freakin time. I don't ever want to see any type of animal suffer but I have no problem with people eating chicken. The first chicken that was eaten by a caveman was probably the result of the chicken just pissing him off so badly.

I've really loved seeing Spearhead in the past, Matt. Franti is awesome. But I see your issue.
I wonder what other toys etc we can get out of the house by consigning them?
