We still have our stray cat, as we couldn't find a local shelter that had room for her, and the non-local shelters won't take non-local cats. We've let her into our home after an appropriate quarantine period, and the other cats have adjusted to her presence miraculously well. Their attitude seems to be, "Oh, another one." We'd still like to find a home for this cat, and she definitely needs to be spayed, as she went into heat again recently for about ten days. Annoying, but good first-hand experience for the Scientist-wanna-be-veterinarian about what a female cat in heat looks like. Oh, and this cat is also young enough that she's climbing the wire cubes up to where we keep the hamster that the Scientist got for her birthday last month. Definitely Not Good. Hamsters are Friends, Not Food. (A movie quote just for Kate.)
And since Debbie shared her purple poinsettia, I think I will show you our blue poinsettia. :P :)

I can't decide if that poinsettia is wonderfully beautiful or FREAKY.
I'll get back to you on that.
(Mine this year was traditional red, but it had double bracts, which was cool.)
Is that blue poinsettia real? I agree with Elephant's child...kinda spooky.
You rock for exercising with your girls!
It's not *exactly* real; it is a white poinsettia with the leaves spray-painted blue (or purple, as the case may be.) There's also glitter. We'll see how long I can keep it alive.
funny barb, about your *fishy quote*
we've been quoting our fave hamster quote all week, since S10 spied and bought himself the (guess the) dvd for christmas
...your mother was a hamster and your father smells of elderberries!!!
lol X
DONG!
Bring out your dead!
i kinda thought the coloring was like carnations...dye in the water.
But only the top of each petal is colred, and you can see some petals are part white, where they were underneath another petal and didn't get painted. Plus, the paint/dye comes off the petal very easily.
