on the third day of Christmas: the Christmas cats and a healthy salad
I think I have not found all the cats on the tree and still in the two ornament boxes, but these are among my favorites: Puss in Boots was from a tag on my son's present from his Auntie Noa when he was a wee little one, and the carved wooden pussycat has a mouse attached to a wire - can you see it? The chewed up folk art pussycat was snatched away from Lulu, our shepherd-lab puppy, who thought everything, including the Christmas tree, was food.
All these cookie tastings were making me feel wan, so I made another batch of that
crunchy baby bok choy salad with mandarin oranges. Slice up mostly the whites of the bok choy, mix with some canned mandarin oranges, and a sliver of red onion, and dress with 1 T. fresh orange juice, 2 T. fresh lemon juice, and fresh pepper. Salt and oil are not needed.
Joyeux Noel!
My little grandsons love that movie Puss N Boots w/ Antonio Banderas' voice:)
ReplyDeleteCute cute kitties Katrina..
Oh - I want to see that, Nana! J'adore M. Banderas *swoon*
ReplyDeleteYour cat ornaments are so cute, and the little mouse is an added bonus. It looks rather delicate so you are lucky that it's still attached to the ornament.
ReplyDeleteBarb- thank goodness that mouse is attached - it's so tiny it would've been lost years ago!
