Holiday Leftovers
I’ve spent some time going through the many photos taken on our Thanksgiving and Christmas trips, and — as tends to happen, post-holidays — there are still some leftovers lurking around. To wit:
The pre-vacation apartment cleaning session, here presented as an illustration of why we tend to ventriloquize Sebastian’s inner dialogue as some variation upon the theme of “Hey, you! I love you! I’ll help you with whatever you’re doing right now! See! I help! Watch me help!”
In this instance, Sebastian, in the spirit of feline community-mindedness, has decided to help Peter clean the bathtub.
From Thanksgiving: cinnamon is flammable, but only for a brief moment. It looks cooler in photos.
From our most recent flight out of Montreal: I always like to stock up on some goodies from our local bulk store before traveling, but I failed to notice that the sun-dried figs look downright evil if you position them correctly. They are, however, extremely tasty.
From Christmas: we spent some time making fun of my brother-in-law’s snowboarding jacket. (We were in Kansas.) “Oh, yeah! Put that one on the blog!” he jeered as people started taking photos. Well, I wasn’t planning on it, but because you asked, Drew…





Ha ha… gotta love family! :)
