Breaking Cat News by Georgia Dunn for November 21, 2024

Elvis is the best reporter. He’s unbiased and objective, tells it like it really is.

We need more “Elvi” in our news coverage. :-)

Oh, I remember this one!

Hey, am I the first comment?

Nana’s secret recipe eh Pucky? And a nice waffle flip ta boot!

It looks like the Girl is preparing the WAFLs on the toy stove, but there is a little puff of smoke coming from the WAFL which makes me wonder!

OT: Happy Orbit Around the Sun to my Trouble boy! ღƪ(ˆ◡ˆ)ʃ♡ƪ(ˆ◡ˆ)ʃ♪

How old do you have to be to remember making those woven pot holders in school?

AKA a Mitt Waffle, Elvis. It protects your tongue from heat.

Elvis doesn’t get the concept of play food.

Those potholders make for some psychedelic waffles.

Elvis calls ’em like he sees ’em

Thanks to everyone who Sent responses re my rotator cuff surgery and tale of complaint re my. ER s incompetent service a month ago. Surgery was delayed until yesterday. I tore the cuff in august. The ER finished off shredding it in October. So yes I was forced to ha e an open replacement of the whole thing rather than a few stitches in the one God gave me. Thanks especially to messages from our gifted nurse FreyaRN and our Denny. Of course She Who Runs ThE Universe Via Australia intervened on my behalf too so our Robin is not banned. Thank God for a good surgeon, a good Hubby, and nerve blocks.

Oh, now I have to make a batch of sourdough waffle batter. It’s still warm enough so I can leave the batter on the counter overnight, and have them piping hot, with fresh blueberries and sliced bananas. It’s a great reason to get up in the morning!

Elvis, you killjoy!!!

For such a simple story line, today’s comic is mesmerizing. Such pleasure on the children’s faces as they get to play their roles ! The waiter screaming WAFFLES right into the ear of the cook ! The girl flipping the waffle into parts unknown. Such JOY! It’s a pleasure to read, and always beautiful. Thanks Georgia !

Elbis, dat’s a wafl, not a pot holder!

Good morning. I would like to introduce myself. I am the person who answered the Facebook call to adopt Georgia’s dad’s cats. I brought them home yesterday, they are so lovable. The Orb does work and prayers are answered.

Anybody know what the short-order way to order waffles is?

That ain’t no waffle. Thees restaurant ees a beeg scam! Where be the darn health eenspector already?

But it will be a TASTY pot holder with butter and syrup !

I just completed a pattern for a crocheted waffle hotpad! It even has a “pat” of “butter” on it!!!

Waffles with a bit of honey-butter and a splash of real maple syrup…Mmmmm.

I’m hungry now.

Now me knows ya all cats peoples here but there a great treat for doggie lovers in todays SPEED BUMP. Not blames me if it steenks. You has been warned.

OT – tatempleman and Lucky

Meanwhile, Back on the Nile Encore Presents Xanadu

Melpomene: I’m just blown away at all this lovely pollen we’ve gathered! I can’t wait to make honey!

Queen Titania: For someone who represents tragedy, you are very cheerful.

Mel: The point I like to make is not that life is one constant tragedy, but that we all need to embrace tragedy when it comes our way. It’s like the song says:

ELO: Don’t Walk Away

When life comes your way

Don’t walk away

If things aren’t like they were before

Don’t fret, just let us help some more.

Don’t run aground, we’ll never leave,

We’ll be right there to help till the awful days are gone

Gone! Never fret, we’ll carry on!

…….

Don’t walk away, or even fly

We’ll be right there, we’re standing by

When nighttime falls, when day is done,

All through the night, it’ll be alright,

We won’t walk away!

Thalia: And don’t forget there’s a lot of happiness to be found as well, although sometimes you have to look for it.

Titania: And I understand you two have been looking for magical flowers. Have you been successful?

Mel: Not sure. We thought we had found some, but they told us they were just ordinary flowers.

Pot holder with butter and syrup, delicious.

OT: I will never use a Discover card. I don’t mind a banner ad that covers an inch or two on the bottom of my screen here on GC. The Discover ad, however, CRAWLS repeatedly up my screen to nearly cover it. Yes, I know I should get an ad blocker but it’s annoying to have to do it when it’s really only the one ad that bothers me.

Credit where it’s due, the pot holder does indeed look approximately like a waffle.

I bet Nana could make a potholder taste delicious! Nanas are like that X

Elvis, I know you have a sense of fun buried somewhere under that fur! Let it out and enjoy the play!

Think Elvis doesn’t approve!

And they’re going to make it into the best dang waffle there ever was, Elvis. ;)

That is one colorful waffle. The secret ingredient must be jellybeans.

OT:Fireplace stuff

This arc reminds me of when I was maybe 3 years old. I had a nasty cold, or some other ailment, and my big Sister did this dance with a pair of clean underpants on her head just to amuse me. Something she would deny doing later in life. LOL Most of the time she had a general dislike for me. It lasted pretty much her entire life. She had been my Mother’s first born and liked being THE child. I spoiled that, but still…there were moments like this one. Almost like when Wednesday Addams goes after the water polo team, pretty sure that’s what they were, for picking on Pugsley. She says, nobody torments my little brother but me. Then she releases the Piranhas into the pool. LOL

It’s a wonder Ora Zella isn’t taking aim at that waffle /target / pot-holder with her Shot gun! Lol. Yes, I’m sure she has such a weapon. Heck, she has a chainsaw!

Off-Topic

OT: Threadless Store

Pancakes are sometimes called flannel cakes so maybe that’s what Nana’s waffles were like. Elvis probably points out the inconsistencies in TV shows and movies.

Puck: Just like Nana used to make!

Elvis: That is a pot holder.

Puck: Yeah. Nana wasn’t much of a cook.

We are under a winter weather advisory here until 10 a.m. tomorrow. It’s currently gloomy, cold and windy and seeing some occasional brief flurries. Calling for 1 to 3 inches overnight. I have housework that needs doing, but right this moment there’s nothing I want more than to bundle up in my fuzzy blanket and catch a few zzzz. Can’t fight the feeling…

This is a yappy community

Off Topic:

I don’t see anything from Sue Ellen today, hope all is okay and maybe she is just getting some rest.

I hesitate to think what the syrup will be.

Lol! Also, this made me remember making potholders out of stretchy loops on a square plastic loom as a kid. I had a nice time with those.

I remember making those pot holders on my metal loom. I was about 12 or 13. Gave them to my adult relatives for Christmas.
