SHOW & TELL FRIDAY


More participants here

Just after Mother's day it is easy to show something new, which is my case.



I was invited to a nice restaurant and here is my little table neighbor Camille, my son's godchild. I had a sorbet as dessert, and grilled salmon before that.



On Mother's day I found this little basket with two red roses



and this cute (and special) cat for my cat collection ! I felt really spoiled.

In Belgium, Holland and Germany you only celebrate your own mother and not all mothers of the world as I realized when I got more than 23 good wishes for mother's day from all over the world !

  1. Oops, didn't wish you yet, so here's to wishing you personally from my 8 cats and I, "Happy Mother's Day" and may you be strong, healthy and witty for many, many years to come.
    Love that cute little cat figurine.

  2. Camille is a cutie!! love those curls.
    Nice finds, Gattina. Celebrating your own mother only makes a lot of sense to me, even male cousins have sent their greetings to me... It must be the commercial pressure!!

  6. Oh! Isn't SHE a darling little moppy-top!?! Look at those rosy red cheeks! Oh my gosh! Too cute!

    We only celebrate our own... I mean, I will WISH other mother's a happy Mother's Day - but we don't "celebrate" them! I do LOVE your new kitty! He looks ready to pounce on anything he sees!

  7. You have a nice blog. But the reason I write is to give you a tip:

    To write in "poetry" of these days, write out a short story, or cleverpiece in paragraph form. Next, just cut it up into small pieces, maybe make a few words rhyme, and you will have a poem. And they will get better with time e.g., develop a meter, a beat, have a beginning, middle and end (A-B-A Sonata form in music). Try it sometime, I'd bet you are GooooD!

  8. It does look like your son takes good care of his mother, and of course I know he does. And the little goddaughter is so adorable. We celebrate all Moms, but I celebrated my own as well. And I called my step Mom too because she has been important in my life!
