Greetings oh feline and human friends.
My Meowmie has decided to “pull the blogging plug” snort….for a while. Something about “finding her muse” or was that snooze? Whatever! In the meantime, I guess I’m going to have to go along with her decision and take a “time out” too.
There have also been some rumors of another “feline addition” being on the way in the new year. I’m not sure if that’s some kind of catty-publication (perhaps a typo here?) or something even more intriguing. I could certainly use a “pep up”. Things have been very dull around here, since dear Mitz, left us for Kitty Heaven.
I will leave you with a poem that Meowmie did write, just for me.She apparently still knew where this “muse thing” was, at that time. More snorts….
See for yourself Ode to Mr. Cheddar. Thanks Meowmie.
And to all of you, my very best headbonks!
Chooowwwww for now (and plenty please).
The Ched with Cred!

Time to enjoy the last vibrant colors of fall! The “white stuff” is on the way….I can feel it! Any snow where you are?
Speaking of snow, I’m on a beret/crochet blitz lately. If you happen to have any good patterns to share for crochet/knit berets, please share. I’ll be posting a couple of finished berets that I am making right now, in the next couple of weeks.

This past Wednesday, it seemed that I was coming down with a bit of a cold/sore throat. I took a rest day and also simmered up a batch of: Curried Apple Soup. By the next day, I was feeling much better and my sore throat had all but disappeared.
Is there anything more comforting than a hearty bowl of soup?
This recipe is also a great way to use up some of the fall apple harvest. Tangy, colorful and satisfying. I’ve included the link to the original post including the recipe and previous comments. Let me know if you give this one a try!
Happy Cooking!

…it’s a BLACK COAT/JACKET/SWEATER etc…????
I have yet to meet (or be owned) by any cat who doesn’t gravitate to black clothing.
Mr. Cheddar is no exception. He found the sun and my black cape yesterday when I came home, no problem!



“Oh Meowmie, get a life!!!”

I am a big fan of tumeric. Read all about the healing and healthful properties of this spice, here and here (and a lot more sites online). With cold and flu season upon us, every little bit helps!
I hope you enjoy this tangy, colorful and delish veggie-lentil soup which is seasoned with tumeric. Let me know if you give this recipe a try (see next page).
Stay warm and healthy. And if you are ill right now, get well soon!
