On Thursday I mentioned that Mom was going to a Christmas Wreath Work shop.
It was a held at Fairview Garden Center in Raleigh, sponsored by BB&T.
TOGM was actually very pleased with her first ever live wreath.
The nursery staff gave everyone a few tips on how to start.  They had all types of 
greenery cut and in bins for us to select and a wire form.  
Mom loved all the shades of green and types of greenery.
For some reason Mom was they only attendee who used Magnolia leaves (there to the left of 
the bow).   Might just be a Southern thing but she loves the texture and shine
Yep TOGM was proud of it.  It is hanging by the front door.
The bow was not included in the work shop.  Mom bought it at the there though
and it was just the final touch needed.

Sammy my dear friend.  I read all about your love of Christmas.  
So today I would like to take you on a magical trip to one of my peeps favorite places to 
visit at Christmas, Grove Park Inn, Asheville, NC


We are going to have breakfast in the lovely Blue Ridge Room overlooking the
mountains.  I called ahead to tell them you are King of Baconia...they promised to have
lots of crispy bacon waiting for you.  This delightful group
insisted on a photo shoot and a Ginger ManCat polydactyl autograph.

There are tons of  beautiful Christmas trees
This is the Dr. Seuss theme Tree it is a favorite of Blogville.

Lucky us to stumble upon the Ginger Bread House judging and you were given a seat of honor my Santa Paws..




After a busy day of fun, food and frolicking, we are relaxing by the fire to enjoy very lovely
Christmas memories and magic

Thoroughly Poetic Thursday and REMINDER

Thoroughly Poetic Thursday with Sammy

Today's post is brought to you by the letter
Y
This cat's meow 
is revvved up a notch by YeoWWW!
WHAT ????your meow is just now
hearing of YeoWWW?
YeoWWW comes in all shapes
GREAT and SMALL
 A cigar, a carrot, a 'nanner and a sardine my mates.
My favorite is not the cigar
it is a tin of sardines by far. 
Yes a tin I did say,
The organic nip tickles my nose, 
it gives my eyes a scary glare.
As it reaches my brain,
into a trance I will remain.
Often I'm asked, "Madi what is your heart's desire",
My reply without a thought is a loud and a proud
YeoWWW! please sir/ma'am with it I am 'down'!!.



As you saw at the top today's poetry is hosted by the one and only Senor Senior Sammy, aka 
One loved Spoiled Cat, 

Tomorrow is a very special day, Come Fly with Me,  to honor Sammy.  Hosted by Easy and the YeoWWW! queen Madi.
