He’s pretty sure he’s way scarier than a mosquito!

Thanks for suggesting it, Mom! Oh, and Happy Halloween, everyone.

Kittens

It is going to take all my restraint to keep from switching this blog to the all-kitten hour, all the time. These guys are just wonderful. (And pretty easy on the eye, too.) We got them through the SaveKitty Foundation, which is based in Queens.

They need names, but we’re trying to get to know them a little before assigning those. Another excuse for a kitten post when we come up with them!

Win This Pig!

Whether or not you’re familiar with the video game Monster Hunter, you have to admire this adorable piggy character dressed up in an angel leotard. Along with other fun goodies from Japan, it goes to the winner of the Mochimochi Photo Contest! The 2nd place winner will get a pig in a pink outfit.

Hello Brooklyn!

John and I moved to a new apartment over the weekend. We’re now living in Brooklyn near Prospect Park. I’m so in love with our new place and the new neighborhood!

This is the window that my desk is now facing. Those are actual trees that you can see outside! Sometimes there are also actual birds chirping. And look—that’s molding on the walls!

It is all very exciting. And tomorrow we’re expecting two new furry additions!

Did Someone Say “Colorful Boos?”

I just can’t resist posting this rainbow of Boos made by DutchMoeder on Flickr (Amaranthology on Ravelry)!

She’s added this and a few other photos of her Boos in the Flickr pool for the Mochimochi Photo Contest. Stiff competition, people!
