Eclair Week

There has been a bake off competition at mums work.  It has gone on for four weeks, and each week there is a theme.  Mum has been on shift or been busy and missed the first three weeks, but today she got to be there for eclair week!!  So there were five lots of eclairs to taste and judge at morning tea.  Mum doesn't bake any more, she used to do some, but has lost her baking mojo now.   She was very appreciative of her colleagues efforts however.

So it was leftovers for dinner, a bit of parsnip and carrot mash and a small piece of steak.  Me I did the feast, and then I did the unheard of and came and snuggled next to mum on the couch just like my friend Miss Millie learned to do.  Amazing!!!  Mum wonders if I will ever do it again?!!!

  2. Poppy, dear, an eclair contains good things that cause humans to purrr. No doubt your mum was still purrrring when she settled down on the sofa...nice of you to join her.

  3. You lost our human at the post title, Eclair Week.

    She wants to know why there isn't a bake-off at her own office. LOL.

    As for the snuggling, it's wonderful to snuggle close to the human, Poppy, for scritches. :-)
