It's Tuesday

 

Well,

so far (knock on wood) the scratching post seems to be working. I think it helps that it's fairly tall, has tight carpeting, which seems to appeal to the critters. And I'm sure the catnip I spray on it doesn't hurt anything:) 

 AND

Signs of Spring in the Garden

 

The tulips are ready for spring.

The rose bushes are thinking seriously about it.

.

It's time to plant the holly tree.

AND

An easy peasy salad

 

layered with spinach leaves, shredded carrots, apples, walnuts, red peppers with honey mustard dressing. The next time I made it, I left out the red peppers and liked the flavor better.

What about you blogger buds, got an easy salad? Signs of spring in the garden?  Scratch pads or posts that work?

Best Valentine Card Ever

I loved this card from the HH. You press the button and music plays and confetti swirls around in the globe.  Fun:)

What the heck, Frank?

Luckily, he got himself down before I had to figure out how:)

Cat Scratcher 

 Callie would never win a Cat of The Year award. She loves to scratch on wood surfaces: door frames, kitchen chairs, desk legs, you name it. Almost every item we have is swathed with double-sided tape and cat hair.  So, I invested in a new cat scratcher. Toes crossed it works.

 

 

What about you, blogger buds. Got a misbehaving cat or two? A favorite Valentine Day card?
