I'm going to tell you the winners of the last Show & Tell giveaway, but first I'm going to make you sit through a ridiculous amount of pictures of kittens. Well, one kitten, actually.

This would be "Mouse", named by the girls. When these kittens were born, I had no intention of keeping any of them. Then we lost Rosie. So I let Emma keep a replacement.

And then, well....just look at this face? Mouse won us over. He's the chubbiest little, fur-ball, stumpy-legged, stick-straight tail of a kitten you could imagine. And my children have mauled him and loved all over him so much that he puts up with anything and has a knack for falling asleep anywhere.

Yesterday, I walked out onto the mudroom to find him flat out on the ground. I called to him. He didn't move. I picked him up, he opened one eye and closed it again. I had visions of Elizabeth squeezing the breath out of him and I was witnessing his last moments. I picked him up again, gave him a nudge. He opened his eyes, looked at me, then passed out again. His head began to loll to the side and I thought, "this is it." But no, he's fine. Apparently, he's just a sound sleeper and obviously takes nap time very seriously.

The rest of the kittens have all found perfect homes, all through the wonders of blogging. I'll tell you more about that soon.

I also owe you a wrap-up report about my grocery challenge. That is coming later today, I hope. My mothering duties started ridiculously early this morning thanks to one rumble of thunder.

Meanwhile HERE are the winners! Please send me an email (you'll find a link to it on my About page) and I'll pass your info on and get those VeggiChops to you right away! Congratulations!

this
looks like it's the perfect size! I love my chopper, but it doesn't
hold very much and I always have to find a place to plug it in. I like
that this one is 'person powered' - my arms could always use a work
out! :)

We won't
have berries for a few more weeks and then I'll be making jam. Wish I
could find a freezer jam that is more berry and less sugar.
