How do you get tomato sauce out of fur?

This is Duchess. You’ve seen her before, but not like this.

(you defintely want to click to embiggen)

Miss Duchess really likes tomato sauce. ¬†Then again, there isn’t much Miss D doesn’t like. ¬†She will even fight you for blueberry muffin. ¬†But you see, mom made meatballs in sauce last night for dinner. ¬†After dinner, with all the leftovers nicely in containers in the fridge, and with the dishwasher already full (and running), we left the “empty” pot on the stove while we did the bedtime routine. ¬†After getting the kids down, mom and I moved to playing Batman for a while (awesome game much like the Lego SW and Indy) waiting to finish the dishes and stuff until the dishwasher was complete. ¬†

Not to long after we finished playing, mom comes back to my room, “you have to see Duchess”. ¬†Curious. ¬†I got to see Duchess. ¬†She looked much like she does in this picture. ¬†Only oranger. ¬†She helped herself to the remainder in the pot. ¬†There was a lot of Duchess in the pot, apparently, as mom cleaned saucy footprints off the counter.¬†

Bad cat.  Wonder how long it is going to take to loose her orange glow :)

Onto the better children.  A few weeks ago, we went to a Bar Mitzvah of the son of a very good friend.  This was the first one for the twins.  Yeah, I was surprised the monkeys were invited too.  Anyway, I bought them new dress up duds and want to share how very cute they were:

When did they get to be so grown up???

Craft on!
