Blue Strawberry – OMP!

 OMP!  There I was this weekend, working on my laptop minding my own business since mom/dad deserted me and took Bashful on an adventure.  That’s when I found this little bit of information on-line.  I almost lost my piggy mind!  We all know how much I love my strawberries around here at the Hotel Thompson.  Heck, the more the merrier.  But now Japan has done and did it.  They have genetically mutated a BLUE strawberry.  Squeals!  Now, one part of me thinks how exciting and I would love to try one.  While the other part of me, all I can think about is Violet from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory – snorts with piggy laughter.  What do you think?

 

7 Weeks of Weird

Today my new friend here is highlighting 7 weeks of weird in “Weirdest things you collect”.

This is a really easy week.  It really is.  I think most of my friends here know that I collect a really weird item.  What?  You don’t know?  Sure you do.  I collect pet rocks. 🙂   You think that’s weird enough?

You know that it all started with my first pet rock Bashful.  He was a gift.  He’s my little international rolling stone and travels around the world visiting my friends and having fun. He looks so innocent and has an innocent name but don’t let that fool you.  He’s quite the ladies rock – snorts.  Every time he goes somewhere, he always brings home a friend.

His friends include Princess Coralena from Hawaii, Manny from France, Rockelle from Australia, Virginia from Virginia,  Benedict Cumberock from the United Kingdom and Koishi from Japan.
