SHOW & TELL - FRIDAY FEAST
MAKING A BAND (or rather a CD cover), the Band meme and Blogroll are here
Show and Tell at Kelli's
On the request of several blog friends I continue showing my cat collection. Today I show you my wooden cats. I received them all over the years from either our son or Mr. Gattino. For Christmas, birthday, and motherday, for them it was easy to find a gift for me. As my son pointed out : "at least for that you are easy" !
Instead of Mr. Linky use this :
Appetizer
What is your favorite beverage?
I always drink Karkade hot or cold with or without ice. It is a tart, bright-red hibiscus beverage. It is very popular in some parts of the Middle East (especially North Africa). This drink is said to have been consumed in ancient Egypt and was reputedly a preferred drink of pharaohs. (That's why I drink it) In Egypt and Sudan, wedding celebrations are traditionally toasted with a glass of hibiscus tea. I mix it with orange juice when it is cold or with lemon and honey when it is hot. But in fact you can mix it with everything. If you drink it pure it tastes a little sour.
Soup
Name 3 things that are on your computer desk at home or work.
For instance there is my cat Rosie sitting on my desk which takes the view of all other things that may be there.
Salad
On a scale of 1-10 (with 10 being highest), how honest do you think you are?
What this question again ? I haven't improved or got worse since the last time I am still on 10. You see from my answer how honest I am.
Main Course
If you could change the name of one city in the world, what would you rename it and why?
Why on earth would I want to change the name of a city ? It was already difficult to find names for my 5 cats !
Dessert
What stresses you out? What calms you down?
I erased the word "Stress" in my vocabulary since I am not working anymore. And nothing calms me down because I only run at high speed !
and for those who suffer stress :

Hi Gattina ~~ Good answers to your Feast. I like the saying, "'m too blessed to be stressed."
ReplyDeleteI hope you are quite over the bronchitis by now. Our weather has been quite nice around 30C and that is fine. Any warmer and I complain.
Take care, my friend, Love, Merle.
Work is a huge stress! I wish I didn't have to! Happy Friday! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure about the other 'link' part you have for your Show N Tell...but I wanted to leave a comment anyway, so followed the whole blog until I dropped down to the 'comment post'.
ReplyDeleteWow, Gattina, the cats are beautiful!! I love the one on top of your hutch that is lying down [on the right hand corner].
Awesome.
My show n tell is posted. I'd love to have you visit me today. :o)
Thanks for coming by my feast, sometimes a hammer be useful, just a small light one though! I like your feast. Ann
ReplyDeleteGreat feast! Love your Main Course. My cat, Leo, was known as Thing for the first week I had him. Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteOoh - I forgot to say - you have an award waiting for you at my place.
ReplyDeleteHi Gattina , What a lovely collection of cats you have. My Daughters Siamese cat is called "Rosie jane".Love all your answers to your feast.
ReplyDeleteLOL! I did not FEAST again today - for I remembered already answering ALL of those questions before! But I liked YOUR answers just the same!
ReplyDeleteAnd your kitties are GREAT! You DO have some REALLY good ones! I love the cartoonish black ones sitting on the table. I actually ALMOST bought myself one like not long ago ... but then... you know... we NEVER buy things like that for OURSELVES!!! LOL! I do admire them though. I also like all the ones around the fireplace! So sweet! And beautiful!
I am loving and hating this morning! I took Sanni's tag from yesterday!
Love you cat collection, I'm impressed. Come by and share a giggle at my grand daughter enjoying her first birthday cake.
ReplyDeleteYour wooden cats are all so varied and unique. It must be fun to shop for you with this theme in mind...
ReplyDeleteThose wooden cats are all very unique, nice collection! I'm glad you are continuing to show your cat collection.
ReplyDeleteKatherine
you crack me up -- and that stress head banging bit would probably crack something to.
ReplyDeleteCool new link gadget.
I have never heard of your favorite drink! I'll have to shop around to see if I can find it in our specialty stores!
ReplyDeleteI love your cat collection..they are awesome. I've always been drawn to the wooden cats.
Thank you for sharing your cat collection. I have one too, although it's all confined to the top of my kitchen shelves.
ReplyDeleteI may try to participate on a Tuesday sometime. THanks for the invite.
Hmm that's an exotic and interesting beverage :)
ReplyDeleteMaybe I should serve it at my own wedding!
Happy Feasting!
The drink you mention sounds really interesting...I wonder if there is somewhere in the US I could find it to try! And I LOVE your stress reduction technique. *headdesk* Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteI'm up now, too: Friday Feast #10
