A dream come true...

One of my favorite blogs is The Itty Bitty Kitty Committee. Oodles of kitten cuteness on a daily basis. I happened along her blog a couple years ago from Linda Morrison's blog, Luluz. They had me at 'Itty".

'Professional Crafter' Laurie Cinotto is a kitten foster mom for The Humane Society of Tacoma and Pierce County and I really admire her work with animals along with her darling paper flower work.
(book coming soon!)

Well, our paths have crossed in the junking and blogging world and today
I had the honor of joining her, Linda and all the cats for lunch. And what to you take a
'Professional Crafter' and kitties for a hostess gift?

Hostess gifts for kitties and Laurie
The kitties received a vintage, pink floral container of organic wheat grass (a huge hit!) and I made little bouquet of button flowers for Laurie.

Charlene Butterbean (IBKC grand-dame) greeted me at the door; made sure I was
worthy to meet the kitties; received her well-deserved gift and accoulades and retired to her upstairs suite for the rest of the visit. I was in kitten heaven watching
the Fabulous Furman Five play, eat, sleep and run around.
Truly entertaining.

My attempt at kitten photography was dismal at best.
Please check out Laurie's blog for truly beautiful kitten photos.

I don't know how Laurie does it, but my fuzzy attempts at photos are
kinda appropriate considering how fuzzy these babies are!

Spending the day with these two very talented and delightful women along with
some bonafide Itty Bitty Kitties was truly a dream come true.
Thank you!

  3. What a delightful, delightful day! I know what you mean about cat pictures...for every one that's in focus, I must have 100 that are just a blur of some animal part running away from me. Thank you for sharing the kitty-action.
