APPLES ON BEDS.. THINGS IN CUPBOARDS..

Happy Easter to YOU all.. 

WE know Granny Jo to be in NYC.. are a lot of YOU somewhere else for this short break? We know that Pegeen is in Paris.. and that it is mighty chilly-billy in Paris WE hear. 

WE would like to be on HER plots but too cold.. very boring Spring which has not sprung.

WE sent an Easter card of a Parrabbit.. haha.. no, not an April's Fools Joke, someone has photo shopped an African Grey Parrot's head onto a pretty grey rabbit's body.. it is very clever indeedy.

EASTER.. Well.. There was NO Chocolate in OUR house.. I am not allowed it for it would make ME very ick-dick-sick.. it is very poisonous to Parrots and Dogs, if YOU did not already know.

So no Choccy Easter Egg for HER either.. but fear not.. 'cos I found HER with a very smug look on HER face as SHE had opened a packet.. of what, I have no idea. I didn't get to see what it was.. uh.

Anyway.. what did I get.. well, it was a huge, wonderful bag of simply the most deliciously scrummydumptious apples, so tasty! 

And, they all had stalks! It is the first bit of an apple that I like to eat. Snip.. goes Beaky. A nibble here and here, SHE takes it away then and eats the middle bit (the core) because I am not supposed to eat pips, as they have a tiny amount of Arsenic in them.. did YOU know that?

And, WE get to eat them on HER bed.. SHE spreads a sheet over it and then WE can make as much mess AND WE do, as WE like! 

WE also play chase the Almond and catch the Grape.. what a silly pair of Easter Bunnies YOU are thinking.. well, YOU'd be wrong.. because WE are like this all the time.. it does not have to be Easter to be silly in OUR house! That's for sure.

Anyway.. as it is a holiday and the weather is not being at all clement, in fact, it was snowing when SHE looked outside this morning.. WE really do not know what HE is doing 'up here'.. with windy winds from the East splitting the Gulf Stream Air Current in half.. it is too bad and as for that poor bare rooted Black Currant 
bush in the bucket, well, those flowers are going to open soon!

So WE are having a lovely time inside at home.. yesterday was
clean sheets day, bed stripped, remade.. room hoovered, tidied. Then cupboard opened, contents of one shelf at a time taken down at a time and boxes looked into and at! Stuff tossed, stuff sorted and some things laughed at and "oh good" was said several times as a treasure or two was located!

There emerged photos of other birds I don't know, who was 'Beep'? And 'Claude-the-Grate'? SHE did not spell that wrongly, apparently that is a very sweet Tale and he was given that name by HER Hay darling, HER much beloved aunt.. IF YOU have read previous Posts, YOU will recall that it was Hay whose small Burmese Monkey followed her to the Ball at Government House in Madras.

And other photos too.. SHE put some aside.. they have to be copied and sent to New York to Bill's sister. SHE put everything away and 
threw away what SHE had thrown out.

And then for a while, SHE was a little quiet.. one can't live one's life again but if SHE could, well, let's say there are things SHE would have done differently.

Oh.. differently! AHHA.. I will tell YOU something that was happened last night that was MIGHTY different!

Drum roll pleease.. for I put MYSELF to bed at 21.15 hours! 

Yes, I flew onto the top of MY cage.. and climbed inside! SHE, was absolutely dumb-struck! As YOU can well imagine.. I am not saying that it will happen every night but it was ok.. I was sleepy.

Now, that was then and this is now.. and what have WE got for supper in the YumYum HQ.



Pip pip.. flap flap.. bye bye..


GeeGee Parrot.
