Hello Dear Fans!

A little chronicle from my files as I write ....yes from delightful, Vienna.

As I look down from my hotel bay window, humans are in a rush to get to the Konditorei for mid-afternoon pick me of mouthwatering pastries and excellent coffee!

Austria, is so remarkable, the sounds of music, and much more.  I love Vienna, steeped in history and culture......like a fine wine. Magical, fun, a trip of a life time......escaping from my human..just to get away from it all (cat snickering).

Jet lag will catch up - but not until I write - LOL

A Konditorei typically offers a wide variety of pastries and is like a little café. In Germany, Austria and Israel it is a very popular custom to go to a Konditorei to have a cake and some coffee or hot chocolate mid-afternoon.



There is a lot more ..................

One Big Party - Christmas to New Years 2012

                       

Hello My Darlings!

Well, what is a girl to do but simply relax and sleep off the flurry of activity between pre-Christmas, Christmas, pre-New Years Eve and New Year Eve! Hob-knobbing with the elite, a full social calendar, lists, phone calls and communication and chilling with my best friends … all kept my paws hopping!

Let’s PARTEEE! Diva Style!

With a bowl of milk beside me … And viewing my celeb list … Let me think ... now … stretching the Diva brain!

Well, Cat Teddy is helping me with my Lists! What is a Diva to do but enlist the help of friends - such a lot to do and get it just right? "Many Paws make light work" Besides I had to SUPERVISE human activity too! LOL!!!

Canadian Christmas Eve! 

A tourtière is a meat pie originating from Quebec, usually made with minced pork and/or veal, or beef. It’s a traditional part of the Christmas and/or Christmas. Delicious wafts of beef and port drifted into the air to the delight of my guests!

Traditional Christmas pudding — Woo wee "pyrogenics"

Watch out for your tail! My human companion shared with me her stories of her home traditions: The rich pudding is carefully placed in an earthen ware dish. Holly is usually place in centre. A heaping dash of 4-star brandy dressed the pudding in style. A wish is made. The blue flame and brandy mingle for a moment, giving way to lovely aromas of the brandy that linger in the air with memories of Christmas’s before! My whiskers and moon eyes became glazed over.

Cat Teddy and Toulouse responded with a chorus of ‘oh’s and ah’s that filled the room in a symphony of wonder!!  My human remarked (with a twinkle in her eyes.). "You only need a morsel of this delicious pudding as it is so richly topped with cream, of course."

Cat Teddy’s eyes are wide open. Laughing hysterically, she almost lands face first in the cream. Ummm, did she have too much Sherry?!!

Pre-New Years Eve - My FIRST taste of DUCK

The aromas filled the air with gamey textures, not like chicken but something differing.
My whiskers quivered in expectation. It was overwhelming, mouth drooling … Time to plan some strategy to steal!!!  Woo hoo!

This is how you DO IT:

Step 1: Observe your humans -- make sure they have had wine (observe to see if they are slightly tipsy. Watch for the visual clues: glazed over expression, DROOPING eye lids and a general lull in the conversation.

Step 2:  With steely determination, LEAP onto a chair -- attack and run!!

TIPS:  use your body as a shield! Savor the moment and use furniture to block humans from getting your food! It works ALL THE TIME - especially if you give them the 'ROYAL HISS' LOL. Any self respecting Dog or HUMAN will BACK OFF!!

Whiskers quivering in delight! I almost had to have my GLASSES on to focus this close LOL!!

I shall look forward to writing more blogs … I'm actually thinking of setting up an email address where you can write to me. You may actually get some free advice on HOW TO DEAL WITH THOSE HUMANS - And Canine companions … LOL -- Watch this space!

My Darlings - HAPPY NEW YEAR  to all my adoring fans!

                                                             Hello My Darlings:
                                          Home massage is coming to ME today.
                                                             'Service with a Smile'
                                                    Purrhaps a delicious treat or two! Woo Hoo.

Love and Light !

The Diva Meets Another At the Spa

Hello my darlings! Welcome!  We are going to the Spa ... Woo Hoo!

I slept with my ‘SPA' certificate under my pillow all night! Can you believe it? Just when I thought I'd bug my human companion by getting up extra early - she beat me too it (sigh). I was being obstreperous.  I performed whirling dervish impressions just to annoy her. I slipped for a moment into daydream until the clang clang of the cat carrier brought me back into reality. My chariot and driver had arrived awaiting my orders!

I wriggled inside my cat carrier as we neared the entrance way to the spa. The air coming through the window of the car smelled fishy. We must be near the lake, I thought. Peering through my window I could see the grand drive way. Sparkling white French doors welcomed us. 

Delicate wafts of pomegranate drifted in the air; my whiskers and nose caught this like a bee to honey. Several pretty bottles on the counter ...

I thought ah would this be for me? I began to bob around, shifting my weight from side to side. 

My human commanded, "steady on girl! You almost made me drop you!...,settle, settle…" I smirked.  I thought, ha ha, sometimes my enthusiasm gets the better of me.

Just then, a woman dressed in a smart white uniform, (smiling sweetly), escorted me to my very own room. 

It was crisp and clean. A white towel with pretty green stripes was neatly folded on the table.  Other objects resembled gifts: a lovely salt lamp, minerals and other fun items; I was getting very excited.

I wasn’t quite sure about the toothbrush...


The technician began the treatment:

Teeth cleaning: Well, what can I say? It wasn't what I expected ... It was just like being at the Vet's. For a moment, my memory took me to a distant place: the vet tech (their eyes looking at the ceiling and shaking their head): "Miss Diva, this won't hurt ... why is she so difficult? ... Thank goodness, our patients are not all like this."


Segue to the present reality: my face felt like silly putty -- even the director at the theatre gives me some leeway. My paws were picked up one  at a time. I will not splay my nails for cutting ... Hey! Hey! This is annoying! My gut grumbled and rumbled from the from the pit of my stomach. I will display my physical self -- to scare them. Rise up like a puffer fish! ZONK! What if I left them a "bank deposit" from the Diva bank? ... Oh, it wasn't that kind of rumble ... My ears flattened. My head resembled a bristle board. I glared at the pleb. I AM THE DIVA ... WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THAT!

Massage: My human companion touched me affectionately and gave me a little massage. She told me to be good. The human tech better warm hands – I don’t want to jump out of my skin! (Rolling eyes toward ceiling -paws pointing out in defiance)!


Ears: Everyone knows how sensitive Divas can be. Humans just don't get it, do they? I splayed by ears, wriggled and carried on to show them who is boss!


Pedicure:  Someone forgot to tell them that I'm very ticklish - especially my PAWS!

Excuse me, did you ask MY PERMISSION?

Wait ... I feel a HISS coming on

Where's my MOMMA -- I am NOT AMUSED!

Treats and other delights:  The towel shrouded me in soft petals, melting me into a dreamy state.  An aroma caught my attention, lifting me out of my slumber, sniff, sniff (my blood-hound nose detected turkey or chicken).  

I gobbled it down with as much force as a wind tunnel vacuum cleaner. This is too good to share ...

My eyes averted to the door that was slightly ajar. A statuesque woman sashayed by, dressed in a Grecian bath robe and wearing a towel on her head. The thought passed …I wonder who this woman is ... she looks posh...Is she a diva too? ... How can I get a pair of those neo-classic shades?

I drifted off again relaxing into my experience once more with dreams of filet mignon in Paris overlooking the Seine, feeding on a delicious view of a couple kissing.  

Au revoir, my darlings!

Excuse me -- hands OFF the paws...do you have MY permission?

MOMMA ........'I'M TICKLISH"
