Just Call Me Hansel . . .
Today’s Fortune: It takes courage to grow up and turn out to be who you really are. This is a very wise fortune. I have been helping Mom with her project for school, and I am learning that back in the days when fairy tales were first written, it took courage just to get out of bed in the morning. Mom is in a class called “Folklore” at high-college, and it is very interesting. I do not like most of her school work, because it is stuff like Statistics (which is boring old math) and Social Problems (which is studying…

The Small Stranger. . .
Today’s Fortune: A small stranger will make your life more interesting. Sometimes I wonder if the guy who writes all the cookie fortunes has spies, because he obviously knows about the small stranger who came to our house this week. Today was kind of a sad day at my house. Today was the day that all of our visiting monkeys had to travel. We decided to have a going away party. Mom made us a whole stack of blueberry muffins, which were very tasty, but I was not in much of a party mood. After our snack, it was time…

Thanks, Easter Bunny!!!
Today’s Fortune: Grand adventures await those who are willing to turn the corner. This fortune was only partly right. We did have grand adventures today, but we didn’t even have to turn a corner to have them! I have had so many adventures in the last week I haven’t had a chance to blog! We went to the zoo, and to the Paseo Art Walk, and got to see the lighting of the Tower Theater, which was really cool. I will have to blog about those adventures later this week, though, because today is a special day! Today was the…

And the Winner is. . . !!!
Today’s Fortune: You will witness an important ceremony. This was a great fortune! Not only did I get to witness the ceremony, I got to “officiate.” I was the “Master of Ceremonies” for our creature contest awards!! That means I got to give out the prizes, and wear my top hat. The winner of our creature contest was Guy, with his very cool creature, Mr. Bojangles!!! He got 26% of the votes, which was pretty good. Dharma’s Rocky came in second with 19%, and Puglet, Walter and Flipper took third place with Plastic Fantastic at 15%. We had the awards…

Vote in Our Creature Contest!!!
Today’s Fortune: Your flair for the creative takes an important place in your life. Another very true fortune We had to get very creative today, because we could not play outside. We were really looking forward to that, because yesterday it snowed again. All of our friends back east were having sunshine and 70 degree weather, but we were getting another blizzard. Dharma poked her head outside yesterday and told us that it was looking like we would get to have a snow day today! Unfortunately, the snow did not stick around. We got up this morning and wanted to…

Monkey Valentines!!!
Today’s Fortune: Good luck is a result of good planning. I think my fortune is right about that. Today is Valentine’s Day, which I have been planning for a while now, and it turned out great! We have been receiving Valentines all week! We got Valentines from our friends Pat, Barb, Lori, Dawn, Lulu, and Anna, and I got one from my Grandma and Grandpa, too! Some of them were handmade, and some of them had neat stuff in them. We loved them all!! Mom has been working on “Ravelympics” stuff for a couple of days now. Ravelympics is like…

Happy Birthday to Me!!!
Today’s Fortune: Your greatest fortune is the large number of friends you have. Yay!! That is a great fortune, and it is absolutely right! I have friends all over the world, and a lot of them were able to be here to help me celebrate my birthday! I am one lucky monkey! Mom said since it was my birthday, I could choose whatever I wanted to do, so I decided to have cupcakes for breakfast! Mom let me pick out my favorite one, and she put a candle in it for me to make a wish and blow out. We…
