Friday Frenzy

 Loyal readers, we have been blessed with a magnificent gift and somehow our lives will never be the same again. Well maybe not until we find a 12 step programme. But who cares about that, right now we are reveling in the delights of the most fantastic parcel.

It all began a long way from here, in the middle of a US desert. Well, there's water there, but it's pretty much a desert.

 And in that desert there lives a genius or thirteen. This particular dude knows his stuff.

So what was being cooked up ? Well, nothing actually as The Kitchen is Out of Bounds. Even though Maui proves otherwise.

Heavens, is that a picture of our very own Risto in that shot, attached to the fridge ? Yes indeed – these magicians are known to us, and to you, Loyal Readers. It's the Katnip Lounge bunch. And maybe it is the Baby we have to thank for our euphoria, as she is the Boss gardener. And we know never to mess with a girlcat too.

So, what has happened ? Well ,we have been sent the most magnificent parcel. It all started when Äiti ordered something from the US and the company would not deliver beyond the national borders, so she volunteered Mom Trish as a postal service. And in the parcel we found more than we bargained for as loads of gifts were included. Woot!

Wowsers! Homegrown catnip. Organic valerian root. And a special gift from May Ling for Mirsku. Only for Mirsku - we get the message.

Well, we are negotiating with Äiti about what pictures she is allowed to reveal showing what happened next. But as you can imagine there was a massively intoxicating evening – and that was simply from the packaging! All the herbal highs were stashed away in the fridge, for a non-school night. But we were far too far gone to notice this. Even the bubble wrap had our attention.

Pekka-poika is well out of it! So we thank you Katnip Loungers most sincerely. Sadly we are probably unable to reciprocate as we guess US customs would be very suspicious if we sent you some of our natural intoxicants. Reindeer don't fly for no reason!  

Pictures shamelessly stolen form the Katnip Lounge. Many thanks dudes.
