Alice in Wonderland

"I invited Alice and her furiends to come have tea with us one day."



"I invited Alice, and the Dormouse and
Rabbit and the Cheshire Cat."



"The Mad Hatter couldn't make it.  He said
he had to many hats in the ring, whatevfur that is."



"So I noshed on some scrambled eggs and then
had a cold drink of water.  I'm not much into tea."


"I kinda zonked out and not sure what time the
pawty ended.  But when I woke up, it was like
it was all just a dream.
This all happened on April first, so I am not
sure if that is part of the problem.
Also, the weather turned on a dime and now
I have been inside looking out and no open
door fur me.  What's the use fur Spring?"


The weather has been typical as sort of Spring and
still winter.  The forsythia are blooming so that means
snow snow snow.  Nothing accumulating,  just means
no warm weather.  However I am glad to 
report the catnip made it through the winter.  With
the aid of a wire fence to keep off all the cats that
roam the yard.  I had to cover it this week for 3 
nights straight to keep it from the freezing temps 
that came back.





Thank you for stopping by for a visit and a comment.
It is much appreciated.

Oh I don't think you did dream up that tea party dear Precious - I think Mum captured it on camera for us all to see!!! Look at your little pink tongue out drinking your water. I shall not show Miss Pippi these photos or she will be wanting her bowl raised up as yours is ... plus she will want her very own tea party!!! With a miniature china tea set just like yours!! I hope you get some warm temps soon - it is chilly here now too & I am debating whether to light the fire just yet. Wishing you a warmer weekend. x0x

Ah, Precious, those April 1st dreams can be particularly strange! Or maybe there was some nip involved too. 😆

I don't know where Spring is this year, but she's sure as heck not in my region, with no real sign of her for the foreseeable future.

Anyway, enjoy the day and the weekend, whatever Mother Nature throws at you!

We've had a whole week of sunshine, plus another
couple of days to go.....a little rain on Sunday, then
a mixture next week, still, l've managed a couple of
days in the garden, looks a bit better now...!

You don't look to interested in the the little china
figures Precious, but then, they don't move do they,
so, you can't chase them about, never mind, you
enjoyed a scramble egg, l have scramble egg yesterday,
and it was a goose egg, lovely and big...and very tasty...!

Must get on, just got back from town, collected my
prescription from the chemist, asked about my Covid
Jab19...The pharmacist did it there an then....Job done!

That was an entertaining tea party, and very relaxing for you, as you fell asleep. I'm pleased to hear that your catnip has survived, Precious, and I hope you can soon go out on your catio again.

Precious your tea party was absolutely fun and so very creative.
Alice et al friends...too bad "The Mad Hatter couldn't make it. He said he had too many hats in the ring, whatevfur that is." He will surely be very sorry when he hears all the chatter about the fun, food and friends.
Please tell Mom WELL DONE this was so much fun

This is adorable! When I was a little girl my parents took me to a theme park with an Alice in Wonderland themed building. I was afraid of shrinking (like in the story) and demanded that we go in the back door MOL!

It looks like a great tea party, nothing too mad about it.

Memories of Eric and Flynn said...

What a lovely tea party you had, Precious. Maybe a dream, maybe not, but I think that maybe you had some of that good healthy looking nip.

Oona: "Oona would probably have disrupted that tea party a little if they tried to hold it anywhere near her ..."

John Bellen said...

I wonder that no giant grey cat was mentioned in the book...

If that was a dream, then it was a fun one! If not...well, we think you likely were set up...MOL!

You would LOL with loud guffaws if you ever heard of the dreams that petcretary relates to our pawppy....at least if she remembers them.

I love the catnip garden, and Precious reminds me so much of Alex.
