Good Morning LL!! ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) (there simply isn't enough!), Happy Caturday!
LL! It's is I, Elsa, Lil Bit, kitteh barista!, president and CEO of Coffee Cat! Life is GOOD! OH!! Paw Prints Pizza is done with coffee pizza. YAY! Lola and bug and that silly crust. I told them several times it was just well, not a good thing.... They finally relented when Lola chipped a toothie on a bean. She is off to the kitty dentist. No more coffee pizza for them! They agree: nip crust is best. So they is perfecting that. Infusion rules, they say. ME? I'll stick to my brews.... so. well. anyways. onwards! ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) time! For today, I proudly offer Elsa's special 10 hour energy coffee, and Triple shot espressos, with beans from deep within the interior of Panama, AND.... for all my Mocha fans: a Venti quad blackberry infused white mocha, with apple cimmamum whip, garnished with caramelized apple clusters, white chocolate shavings, a dusting of cimmamum and blackberry drizzle. .... OH! No worries, a dollop of apple and blackberry and chocolate swirl ice cream, on top of a dollop of fudge. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh....... mega good!

I hope everyone had a good Friday. It was fairly normal for me: Nicholas for the day, and pizza on the menu for the evening. We have been doing pizza on Friday night for more nights than I can remember. YUM! Nicholas and I did make it to the pool, as he so wanted to go. So we did, well duh! Friday is pool day. :-D Things were a bit better than Wednesday, but I will be SO GLAD when the summer sessions will be over there. It is bedlam... and so many kids... and no room to think.... LOL! well anyways, we had a good time. I will include the photo and video links too, although they are so similar to what I linked on Wednesday. Here's what I wrote in last night's post: "Hi Everyone! happy Friday night! it is pizza night here. YUM. and.... we hit 83 today. Yahoo! It is nice to finally feel some warm. :-D :-D :-D :-D A very nice and toasty for us. Nicholas and I did go to the pool today. Pool went ok, less of a zoo today than it was Wednesday. Perhaps the novelty of "it's finally summer" has wore off for some of these kids, and they went elsewhere today. There was NO LINE to get in. SWEET!!!!! Little guy still wants the big pool. We had a moment of sadness over that, but we made do with what we had. He went with the flow, had a good time. Berry picking after that, a duh these days. The bushes there are still producing them. amazing. Lots of huckleberries now. and (!!!!) gawd forbid however: his grammie lost his Bear. Bear always goes on these adventures. Seemed I dropped him somewhere along the berry route. omg: search and rescue after that, LOL! I did find him, though he made sure to tell his dad about Bear's ordeal: lost in the woods! LMAO. Thank gawd I found him: knee deep in a thicket of vines/bushes/ and thorns. shessssh! I will never live that one down. :lol: :lol:" Picassa links: Swimming! and Trails, Berries, and Bear...

It is so quiet here as I write this condo.... Hmmmmm... what are those two (aka Lola and Bug) up too. Quiet is not good.... At least I do not hear any ccccccc-rash! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Yesterday Nicholas asked about Mannie again. Well, more like he talked about him. He was remembering certain things, like how Mannie didn't like Blueberries, and Mannie loved Nanners, and Mannie slept in his bed, and Mannie had tests, and Mannie loved chicken. It was several things throughout the course of the afternoon. All of them centered around things he shared with his best buddy. It was amazing, well maybe not, to me how much he really does remember, and what things left an impression. When he went home he tells me that he misses Mannie. I told him we all do. I also told him things are good for Mannie now, no worries! yes, that it is. Mannie said so. That brought a smile to his face. :cool:

Have a great day everyone. It will be catch up day here: shopping, laundry, errands bills: my normal Caturday stuff. We are supposed to be sunny and 81 here. YaHOO! I think summer may have finally arrived. :cool: I would like to also hike to the shore, but will go early to avoid the masses that show on sunny days, and the hot. :-D

KITTIES!: Think BLUE!!, Think GREEN!!
 
Are you sure Bear didn't just run away? Or maybe he wanted to play and hide and seek? Or maybe he found a new girlfriend and chased after her.....yeah that could be what happened. Silly Bear!

Guess you will need to put a leash on him from now on. :lol: :lol:
 
Hi Michelle. Sounds like you had another great day with Nicholas yesterday. It's so nice that he has those fond memories of Mannie. I think children and pets can make a special bond with each other. You're building so many nice memories with him.

Have a great day Michelle.
 
What a pleasure for me to leisurely read your post and looks at your pics on a Saturday morning :-D I have to rush through them on my work mornings, and sometimes I am late for work :o

I love seeing Nicholas with the kitties. Just magical how the grown kitties have accepted him with no fear :-D

Enjoy your day!
 
Ohhhhhhhh, Grammy, be careful!!!! I think Hillary was right, he must have been playing hide and seek! Have a great day despite all the chores.
 
Hi MIchelle,
Another day in the pool another fun adventure for all of us! Boy am i glad you found Bear!! I bet your heart was a little bit in your throat?! I'm so glad we didn't have to call out the troops!

It's amazing that as young as Nicholas is, he didn't miss a thing with his buddy Mannie and he remembers so well. :YMHUG:

Have fun with all your catch up stuff today. Sneak in some fun also.

Morning John ~O) ~O) ~O) Yes, we did! it is always such fun with Nicholas. I think so too: that he remembers Mannie with such fondness: they were really very close. Mannie just loved him, and vice versa. :cool: I so hope on all those memories! :-D

Morning Jane ~O) ~O) ~O) Ah - THX! I am so glad that you enjoyed all. :-D :cool: omg on the weekdays: and the late for work. :roll: :lol: I am flattered. THX too on Nicholas and the kitties. he has such a way with them,. and they all like him. It is amazing, and magical. Sometimes we call Nicholas the cat whisperer. :cool:

Hi Ann ~O) ~O) ~O) oh yes! Nicholas told everyone how Bear got lost, and grammie lost him. :lol: :lol: :lol: Dang good ting that grammie found him too. shesshhh! I think Bear thought it was all good fun, and hide and seek rules. He was no worst for wear. can't you just see Nicholas and I out there in the woods calling and looking for Bear: "Bear? where are you? BEAR?!?" :lol: :lol: :lol: THX on today, and will do! The sun is shining... I mat have to ignore some of those chores.... :shock: :lol:

Hi Mary ~O) ~O) ~O) oh LOVE that photo! major search and rescue - thank goodness they were there for Bear! :lol: :lol: and oh yes on the heart in the throat. I felt so bad.... i did drop him, too many things on my hands. :lol: :lol: I SO AGREE on Mannie and Nicholas. At two he rememebrs so amny things. I'm glad we can talk about it now and then - it helps keep those good memories he has alive.
Auntie Mary! I AM COMING!!!!!!! We can't have you draggin' your tushie! My bean did that - it took three brews to get her going. :shock: ~~ Elsa, Lil BIT, kitteh barista
 
Hi Michelle, sounds like another fun packed day yesterday. Oh my on Mr. bear and glad all is calm there. :lol: Are huckleberries the same as blueberries. We used to pick elderberries as a kid by the bushel and sell them to a little Ma and Pa store. Great pics of swimming and berry picking.
Oh that is bittersweet with Nicholas asking about Mannie. They really had a bond.
Give Lola, Bug and Elsa lots of scritches from us.
Elsa Lil Bit, great coffee as always.
 
I hope you did get out for a walk somewhere today. That is sweet Nicholas was talking about his memories with Mannie.
 
Hi Ann :-D Yes, yesterday was a fun one. I know on Bear! I felt so bad, and was ever so glad when I found him! Huckleberries are very similar to blueberries. They are more reddish in color than blueberries, at least the ones near the pool are. Very cool on your elderberry picking - I like that. I think so too on Mannie and Nicholas. Will do on Lola, Bug and Elsa: scritches delivered!
Thanks Auntie Ann! ~~ Elsa, Lil BIT, kitteh barista

Hi Carla :-D I thought so too on Nicholas and Mannie. They were so close. amazing what he remembers! And yes, I did get out: a local hike, Weatehr was just too nice to stay indoors.
 
How sweet that Nicholas still asks about Mannie...I don't think he will ever forget his first best buddy. Hopefully the other kids will get bored soon, and the Energizer Fish can rule the pool again, as it should be! Wow on the bear hunt...good thing GrammaBean is a good Bear Hunter....phew, disaster averted!! Aside from Nicholas missing him, what would WE do without Bear pictures :lol: !!!

Have a great evening, Michelle!
 
HI Amy - I think so too. I am amazed that he does, but he really remembers alot about many things: tings that have meaning for him. It is so apparent that Mannie really did have meaning. I like that idea: the other kids will get bored, and he can have his pool back. YES! works for me! :-D lol and yes on Bear! I am SO GLAD I found him! oh too fun: what would we do without Bar pics? I dunno! :-D
 
Another great day with your guy. :-D :-D :-D I had a few huckleberries and salmon berries in Vancouver! Yum! I'm so glad Bear was rescued. I was getting worried. nailbite_smile :lol: :lol:
Liz
 
Morning Liz ~O) ~O) ~O) YaHOO on the salmonberries and the huckleberries. How fun. They can be a little on the bitter side sometimes, especially the salmonberries. I hope you enjoyed your time up here. Vancouver is a great city. oh yes (!!) on Bear..... :roll: :lol:
