    Today’s Fortune: Very little be needed t’ make a happy life. This be one o’ our favorite days o’ t’ year! It be Talk Like a Pirate Day, and it looks like even my fortune be pirate! Me and Puglet finally got our slimy pirate adventure set grown, but it took a while t’ do it. We had t’ move t’ pieces into bigger containers, because they outgrew those glasses pretty smartly. I’ll be darned if those adventure set pieces didn’t have t’ be moved again! This time, we put them in a great big clear bowl where they would…

  • My Icky, Slimy Pirate. . .

    Today’s Fortune: Keep up the good work. You will be rewarded. That is a good fortune, because I have been working on a project for the last few days. Last Saturday, I got out my “Grow Your Own Pirate Adventure” set that Auntie Pam and Chip sent. September 19 is Talk Like A Pirate Day, and I wanted to make sure my pirate would be ready for the festivities. Mom got out a big pitcher of water, and a clear glass for each of the adventure pieces. I have a pirate, a pirate ship, and a treasure chest. The only…

  • It’s Silly Hat Day!!!

    Today’s Fortune: Others will take note of your radiant personality today. I am not too sure about that fortune. The only one here to take note is Mom, and she has mostly been too busy to notice my radiant personality.  Today is Mom’s birthday, and birthday presents have been arriving at our house for a while now!  So many of our sweet Ravelry friends have sent gifties, and it feels more like a birth-month than a birthday. My Auntie Naomi (JollyPyrate) sent Mom a knitting book called Knit One Below. It has lots of cool sweaters and stuff in it,…

  • We Are Surely Glad. . .

    Today’s Fortune: You will bring sunshine into someone’s life. I sure hope that fortune is right! I have so many people that bring sunshine into my life that I hope I can return the favor. Mom has been busy with work and other stuff ever since we got back from Ashevegas and Camp Cavett, and she has not had time to be Adult Supervision. This means that I have not been able to blog about all of the cool stuff that the postman has been bringing to our house, so I am surely glad to be able to finally catch…

  • Happy Birthday, Big Truck Tacos!!!

    Today’s Fortune: Stay close to your inner self, you will benefit in many ways. That is a very silly fortune. I have to stay close to my inner self.  If I don’t, my stuffing will get scattered all over the place. Yesterday was a great day.  It was the Big Truck Tacos First Anniversary Party!   Big Truck Tacos invited all of their Facebook fans to come have a big party with them to celebrate. They have over 9,600 fans now, so they had to limit it to the first 1,000 people to RSVP. We were very happy to be invited.…

  • Shadow Boxes and Needle Felting!!

    Today’s Fortune: The time is right to make new friends. Another brilliant fortune! I’ve never seen a better time to make new friends than at Camp Cavett! I got to meet so many new friends, it was hard to keep everyone’s name straight. I was glad they wore their name badges most of the time. Next year, I need to see if Mom will make me one of those in my size. The art room was a very busy place the whole time we were at camp. There was a table in the back for dollar bill folding, called “origami,”…

  • Arriving at Camp Cavett!!!

    Today’s Fortune: You will soon find more adventure in life. Boy! This fortune was so true! I found more adventure in five days at Camp Cavett than I usually find in a whole year! We arrived at camp last Tuesday evening.  Me and Mom came in the day before camp started.  Mom was in charge of the Art Room, and she and a bunch of other grownups came in to get stuff ready for the campers to arrive.   We got to see a slide presentation about what we would be learning at Camp Cavett.  It was kind of a sneak…
