vicious kitties

Have just had lunch with Leigh, mine a very scrumptious bagel filled with turkey, cranberry, avocado and cream cheese. Not too original, but yummy nonetheless. Afterwards went into the pet store on Bunda St to look at small furry, feathery and scaly animals, watched kittens for 10 minutes or so. Kittens are vicious little buggers when they play with each other, biting ears, tails etc. I was very satisfied to see the girl kitten overpower the boy kitten. I wanted to buy something for Katherine's cat, Mia, but i realised that our house is full enough of cat toys as it is. Plus, why play with a furry whatsit when you can have just as much fun knocking cups off the table. *sigh*

the tea-cosy of death

Last night Katherine knitted a skull-and-crossbones motif tea cosy. It ranks high in my mental list of Best Things Ever. It says to me, "yes, you may be having a cup of tea, but it's a dangerous badass punk rock kinda cuppa. And there may or may not be poison inside. Do you take sugar?" As soon as I get my hands on a digital camera I'll stick a pic of it on here.
