Good Morning LL! 
(YUM! I Love coffee!), and Happy Sunday!
LL! It's is I, Elsa, KBP!, president and CEO of Coffee Cat! Life is GOOD! Coffee is on, Lola and Bug , founders of Paw Prints Pizza, are ready to go! Want pizza? it is MEGA GOOD! They are busy getting ready for.... uh.... I dunno! but there sure is a flurry of activity in the kitchen. :shock: so. well. anyways. Coffee time! For today, I proudly offer Elsa's special 10 hour energy coffee, and triple shot espresso, beans from the heart of central Ethiopia. For my mocha fans: Venti Quad orange and vanilla mocha, laced with orange swirls, topped with chocolate whip, garnished with orange zest, slivered vanilla beans and chocolate swirls....... and orange drizzle! SWEET!, and perfect for a winter day. OH! No worries, a dollop of orange and vanilla and chocolate and caramel swirl ice cream, on top of a dollop of fudge, and a chocolate caramel drizzle.... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh....... mega good!
I hope everyone had a great Caturday. Mine was good, kinda mellow, but kinda busy too, Well, the morning was. I did get the shopping done, and the laundry, and paid the bills. WOOT! It was such a rainy day here that the rest was spent indoor, with a brief walk in the woods later in the day. Weather was a mixed bag.... where is spring? Oh wait... this is normal for spring here in the PNW. :roll: It was nice though not to have to do anything, or be anywhere, or have a deadline. Awesome in fact!
Here's what I wrote last night about the day: "Happy Caturday Night LL! How has the day been treating you? it is 5PM here, and as I type this the sun is shining, the clouds are also ominous, the rains are falling, winds are picking up and we have several rainbows. convoluted!, and pretty at the same time. It is amazing what sun can do to the luminosity of raindrops. 
It's been a decent day here. POURED this morning, by 2 if had stopped, so I headed on out then: just walked the woods at meadowdale here at home, had a great time doing that. It was muddy as it could possibly be. No surprise I guess after all that rain this morning. Things are really starting to bud in the park. The contrast between the new green and the old gray was rather nice. Trillium is starting to bloom, well the one patch I could find is. Love that plant. anyways, rest of the day has been more or less an SOS day, shopping errands and laundry now done. No complaints though, it's nice to have a laid back, come as it may day. ;-) For anyone following the news of the horrific mudslide here in WA, a bit of news on Oso. The dept of Ecology has been out to the site, and in their opinion they feel the area is contaminated, what with all the propane tanks, septic systems etc. sheshhh.... what else could go wrong over there. Guess they will now do a formal assessment of conditions. Expected I guess. I feel for those folks.
Normalcy in MusketeerVille! Normalcy in MusketeerVille! The kitties were GOOD kitties yesterday, even Lola. :shock: Well, sorta on Lola.... Lola will always be Lola. :roll: She was one wound up crazy cat yesterday. The runs are always a constant thing here, but wow on yesterday. She flew through the house, careening around corners, sliding on the kitchen floor, flew over furniture, stopping at times to pound on any available glass surface.. NUTS! Her latest pounding surface: posters! She started that one a few weeks ago, hadn't been back to it, but guess she was making up for lost time yesterday. We were back to the posters... Sheshhh - I have a few framed ones, and she seems to think that they are really cool. Thank goodness there are no claws used with this pounding. She'd race, then pound, repeat several times over. Crazy cat! We had alot of paper bag annihilation too, after I get back from the store. Maybe she's excited to know one of those bags has Kitty fuds in it! :lol: Bug and Elsa were visibly thinking: I SO DO NOT KNOW HER!, just like every Caturday.... She was a good girl though after shopping, and made sure she played in the paper bag like she should. Our wet weather continues, so Bug and Elsa continue to hibernate. I can't say that I blame them! Normalcy in MusketeerVille!
Have a great day everyone! I'm not too sure what will be here today. An out and about for sure, but I think it will be local... to the shore if it isn't too cold, or wet, out there.
KITTIES! Remember: think BLUE, think GREEN cat_pet_icon

, yupp: those Trillium, rainbows, spring were just that": Lovely, and very welcome. THX on the quote. I couldn't help but see it that way: the rain was falling, the sun was out, and the combo of the two - well, that is how it looked to me: Luminous.
