Watermelon Smile

This was shortly before he said "You're my favorite, Uncle Chris."

The Watermelon Dance

So this weekend I had two 8 hour travel days to spend about 36 hours with my family, including my nephew.

This here video? With him calling my name at the beginning? Makes it all worthwhile.



I guess babies are OK after all.

Cats, Watermelons, Lakes

I have blogged before about my obsession with the internet's obsession with cats obsessions with watermelons.

Still, I'm always a little surprised:

The Japanese Eat The Darndest Things

Really, Japan?

According to this here article, there are 19 different Kit Kat flavors in Japan.

This one here is kind autumnal. I was never one of those people who liked the pumpkin-spiced latte at Starbucks, but if I did I'd get the Pumpkin Kit Kats for dunking.

Mmm, Pineapple. Don't eat this one, Amber!

I love Watermelon.
Mmmm, Corn. BARF
This one makes my teeth hurt just thinking about it.
This one at least makes sense. Green Tea!
Anyway, The End. I know someone in Japan right now, I look forward to getting all 19 flavors as my souvenir.

Cats & Watermelons

I don't know what it is about cats & watermelons, but they seem to go together like chocolate & peanut butter.
This gray puss has yellow eyes, and likes to hide behind his melon.
Yellow boy here is just so proud to pose.
I fear something bad has happened between puss & melon before this picture was taken.
This one is my all time favorite. Pepper & Lucy are having a little adventure here. I don't know what's happening - are they going up on a glorious adventure to the heavens? Or are they going down to a crushing splat? Why are they so relaxed? Pepper seems to know something's up, but Lucy is enjoying the ride. I know this is Great Art because it makes me ask many questions.
