Snow. It’s good to stay away for a while but it’s better to stay away forever. Please just stay away. Please. Come in from the cold and take the chill off with a warm cup of hot chocolate! It tastes like love and happiness.
PS: Chocolate can be poisonous for cats and dogs. Chocolate contains chemicals which for cats and other domestic pets can be deadly.
We are having our annual Spanish Hot Chocolate party tonight to celebrate Reyes or Epiphany. A tradition we started while living in Spain and have continued ever since. Too bad we are half a world apart. You would love Spanish Hot Chocolate. Keep warm!
The Dutch and Flemish call this day Driekoningen, (Three Kings’ Day). In the Netherlands and Belgium, children in groups of three (symbolising the three kings) proceed in costume from house to house while singing songs typical for the occasion, and receiving a coin or some sweets at each door.
Wish I could join you for the Spanish Hot Chocolate…
Timothy, I love that idea!
I second that LOL 🙂
Thanks!
Hot chocolate sounds great! I’ve been working a lot outside this past week. I think I need that recipe for Spanish Hot Chocolate….
A few cat treats and a warm fire to curl up by will make Mr. Bowie feel better!
I think we need to get some more info on that Spanish Hot Chocolate recipe from Timothy…
Stay warm Mr Bowie. Pork is also poisonous for cats when it is served from the human table.
Thank you! No pork for me (I’m a part time vegetarian 😉 ) or Mr. Bowie!
Gosh, so many things not good for us kitties. Mom gives us pork all the time with no ill effects. I haven’t seen snow yet so I don’t know what all the hoopla is about it but I am interested in finding out. Stay warm!
Thank you, Christy! We’ll stay inside, that’s for sure. Cat treats for Mr. Bowie and espresso for me…
No raisins either!! So…Spanish Hot Chocolate all around for the humans and sanctioned treats for our best felines… 🙂
We will follow your advice, Christine! Mr. Bowie says “Meow!”
Onions are poisonous to them too I’ve heard. I’m glad you’re ok with the chocolate, Herman. Look at the beautiful warm coat Mr. Bowie has…I’d like to sink my fingers down in that nice coat.
Thank goodness I don’t like onions… I wish I had a coat like Mr. Bowie! 😉
Stay warm Herman and Mr. Bowie…spring will come around again,
Oh yes, we already have more daylight at the end of the day… 😉
I will trade your snow for our -25 wind chills expected overnight. Plus, you should have pity on me and send dark chocolate.
Okay, there’s still one chocolate piano in the box… 🙂
Stay warm Mr Bowie ..maybe a hot carob chocolate..safe for kitties and pups..send some snow here my friend it is nearly 44 C today and 95% humidity..no hot chocolate here..:) hugs Fozziemum xx
Hi Fozziemum! You can have our snow if you can send us some warmth! 🙂
Mr. Bowie says “Meow!”
Sure can! About to hop in the pool it’s 30c inside and out…amd its nearly 9pm…sending it now 🙂 and howdy Mr Bowie 😉
Much appreciated! 🙂
Welcome 🙂
So this wasn’t you? I thought for sure it looked like you making snow angels? 😀
Hey…!! That’s baby Bowie 4 years ago… 😉
Adorable!
I went for the chocolate cake with dark chocolate frosting myself tonight 🙂 Ralphie went out in the snow for about 1.2 minutes before he realized it wasn’t that much fun 🙂 Hope you all have great week!
It seems Ralphie made a very wise decision! Can I have a piece of that chocolate cake, please…?? 😉
of course 🙂
Yep indoors with you hot choccy time! Gosh i love that cat of yours 🙂 big nd beautiful. Absolutely no chocolate for kitties and dogs!
So true, Julie! Mr. Bowie says “Meow!”
Driekoningen day sounds lovely. I love to hear the children sing. ❤
Oh yes, things that brings back memories of my childhood…
Wij hebben hier drie 3 Koningen gehad gister met het traditionele liedje …en vader heeft het geld op de rooster geteld…en ze waren reuzeblij met overschot snoep van de Nieuwjaarzangertjes8! Zou wel de Spanish Hot Chocolate eens willen proeven!
Ben ook benieuwd naar die Spaanse Hot Chocolate… Ik heb zaterdag verschillende 3 Koningen tegengekomen in het centrum van ‘t dorp.
That Spanish Hot Chocolate sounds yummy…..will have to look into that! Meanwhile, I’ll just have to make do with my box of Godiva from Santa……poor me…… 😉
Pam
You have my sympathy, Pam… 😉
You and I feel the same way about snow. We’ve been lucky so far this year, but I know it’s coming . . .
Thank goodness the snow is gone… Let’s hope it stays away!
Dude- that hot chocolate was sounding great fur a minute there! YIKES!
Cats can’t have chocolate. Hmmm. This is the one sole reason not to be a cat. Well, that and, also, you can never tell what kind of human is going to get their horrible meat-hooks on you and that can be very bad. But other than those two things, I want to come back as a cat. With our kind of human as guardian.
