Yummy stuff

I don't know what it is like where you are but it is miserable here: all rainy and a bit chilly. And I am sad because I have no friends. And it will make me sadder still to tell you about that now so I think maybe you should read the book all about me. You can see all about it and everything on www.theschnoops.com

When I am sad Trevor makes me something very special to drink. And that special something is Hot Chocolate and today he let me help him.

First we put some milk in a pan and hotted it up. And the important thing is that you have to have a big grown up person or a big grown up elephant like Trevor to help you do that.

When the milk is getting hotted up you put some chocolate in a jug. I wanted to put a whole bar in but Trevor said that wasn't necessified. I think it was, but I broke the bar in half and broke it into pieces. Trevor said there was still too much chocolate but that it wouldn't be healthy and good if I picked it out with my paws so it stayed there.

When the milk was at the point of boiling bubbles Trevor picked the pan up with his trunk and poured some of it over the chocolate. It all went melty and streaky and then Trevor whisked it up with a frother. And I helped and it went very bubbly. And quite a lot went over the table.

Then Trevor put the pan back on the heaty ring and when it was boiling bubbles again he took it off and poured it over the chocolatey milk. He frothed it all the time too. Which is very clever when you think about it.

When it was all smooth and chocolatey he poured it into 2 mugs and put some marshmallows on top. It was very delicious and yummy.

I feel quite a bit better now.

Honey is...Rubbish...Sculpture (by ME)

You know how Jezza is always making his 'Rubbish Sculptures' and he thinks they are so wonderful when we all know they are well, rubbish. Well I thought that I could make one too and it would be better than his.

I did not know what to make and then I saw Honey and thought that I could do a sculpture based on her. I wanted to put a carrot in it because she is always eating them. But I could not find any. She must have eaten them all up.

So I used an onion instead.

I think it looks rather good.

Honey does not.

A question

If someone asks you a question and you do not think they will like the answer must you say the true and right thing anyway?

Schnoss says that I must never ever tell a lie. But sometimes it is hard to tell the truth. Especially when you know that Honey will go all shouty and possibly hit you quite hard on your bottom.

If she asks me whether she looks nice and pretty in her new dress and shoes and I think that she looks like a sack of potatoes which has just fallen off the back of a lorry, what should I tell her?

Next time someone asks me a question like that I am just going to stick my paws in my ears and pretend that I have not heard.

Rubbish Sculpture No.3

These are photographs of Jezza's latest Rubbish Scuplture. But because it is kind of big he calls it 'A Natural Open Air Installation'.

Its tile is: 'Organic Marketing'...Well that does not sound right, does it?

That is because I am wrong. Jezza wrote its proper title down for me it is:

'ORGANIC MARQUETRY'

Nope, I do not know what that means either.

It looks like a big pile of sticks to me.
