Happy Mr. MacNutPie

Who's a happy pig? I a happy pig! Finally, CoconutPie gonna get her custom "hut" and she gonna quit stealing my cuddle cup big enough even for the Mighty Mac, that's right, y'all, I is the Mighty-Mac: just look at me! Am I beautiful or what? Happy, content, so full even left a morsel for a lil'snack later while I just chillax and feel the happiness that comes from being ME! And no more losing my cuddle cup to that little flirt who takes what she wants, just makes sure nobody sees her, so her reputation as a "kind, gentlePiggie" remains intact.

Mom seen her, though! That why she got Coco her own NutHut! Yeah, the "NutHut" gonna be a load o'worry off me...and my dear Coco gonna love it!

It cold, wet, dark, grey, and gloomy outside but in here, THE MAC RULES! We is all happy pigs now!

SQUEEEEEEEE, HAPPY ME!

love,
The Mac

SQUEE-PA-LOOZA!

THANK YOU, GENEROUS DONOR &
THANK YOU, JEN FOR THE ADORABLE
HUT YOU DONATED AND SEEMS LIKE
AN EXTRA PAD GOT THROWN IN ALONG
WITH A TINY EGGPLANT (FROM YOUR
GARDEN?) THE SIZE OF A DIME! TOO
CUTE!
OUR GOODIES CAME! OUR GOODIES CAME!

Mom not feeling well but made it to the Post Office to see if OUR GOODIES CAME AND
OUR GOODIES CAME with lots of extra pads so if we wee or poo (US? NEVAH!) she can
switch it out with a new, dry one while she washes the dirty one (MOM? LAUNDRY? NEVAH!)

She was so excited that she actually opened the box at the Farm Store that "gifts" us
to her & then they got so excited they pulled everything out and began fondling our
stuff,  ooohing and ahhing and not way eager to put anything BACK.

Then they sez "we could SELL these here!" but what they was really thinking was "We could
TAKE THEM here and KEEP THEM here and NEVER LET THEM GO anywhere" so mom
thanked them for "sharing" (and the free food they donate for Calvin!) then off she went to
buy us fresh, organic goodies and kind up bulk up since she pretty sick and know she may
not be shopping for a few days...

Once she feel betta, we gonna set up our Runabout for a photo-shoot and can't wait! Meanwhile,
THE BIG QUESTION is the equal distribution of goods amongst herd members so some guineas
don't "borrow" things they never return...

LIKE CALVIN TAKING MY TUNNEL! ME WANTS IT BACK, IT MINE, ALL MINE, NOW HE
GET THE NEW ONE AND I GETZ MY TUNNEL BACK...CALVIN ALWAYS GETS HIS WAY,
DON'T THINK WE DON'T NOTICE! Just cuz he ain't got real bones. Well, mine is spondyankled!
That oughta count for somethin! SpondyAnkled...yeah, mebbe I should get more than one o'these...

YumYum goin' AFTER GOOD STUFF! LATER!

FOR ALL THE GENEROSITY WE HAVE BEEN SHOWN: MANY GRACIOUS THANKS!

WINTER WARM-UP

Our plush, new Cuddle-Cups haven't arrived yet and it's cold, so think I just gonna cuddle my brother...
Raj, you don't mind, do you?

Thank you for asking, and yes, I do mind. Go'way!

On the other hand, it is kinda cold...hmmm.

Maybe try "cuddling" and see if it warms my cockles.
"Mom! What are cockles?"
"Mom?"...guess I just gotta find out for m'self.

On second thought...mebbe I doesn't really need to know...

Why it so cold tonight? Raj, I gonna warm m'self on ya again...it's freezing. Lucky you are so warm!

Taj, our new cuddle cups and plush, warm huts are gonna arrive soon enough...so knock off the "cuddling" and just DEAL WID IT!

And so, Princely Raj and Chocolaty Taj Mahal agree to stop "cockling for warmth" and just bundle up together in the Pigloo until their new gifts arrive.
Mom will give them extra hay tonight, fo'sho!
And we all know how nice brothers are about sharing.
Unless we have been reading this blog for more than one post...SHARING/~! WAAAH! THAT SO FUNNY!


The End.

We Lost Mom, or The Case of Spontaneous Combustion

Mom was under a lot of pressure because she only had ONE ENTIRE MONTH to prepare for last night.

This not a pretty sight, we sorry we showin' it to ya.

But we gotta find mom, doesn't see her anywhere!

(Some peeple doesn't know the difference between "one month" and "one day." Mom one o'dem!) Says wid brain injury time don't make no sense. We shall not comment further upon the advice of our attorneys and the fact our new cuddle-cups and huts hasn't arrived and we really wants 'em! Please do not pity us or she'll show up
singing "Don't Cry For Me, Argentina." Thank you.

Hmm, hasn't had any fruit! That a clue.
(A clue that WE should eat it!? Heh-Heh.)

This how mom gotta dress h'self sometime when her brain ain't workin' and, as you can see from her artistic "organizational abilities"...but she usually put clothes ON before leaving. Dis NOT A GOOD SIGN.
Either she left...ummm, how do we put this delicately?
There is no way and we still wants our cuddle cups, so shall leave that to your imagination.
OR...
SHE SPONTANEOUSLY COMBUSTED?!
We have heard in legends...but knowing mom, she left WITHOUT getting...
well, YOU KNOW.
(seriously...she has...Oops, no, we really want our new cuddle cups!)
We'll keep you in the loop. If we find the loop under this mortifying mess. Even sweet, furry rodents keep house betta than this. Seriously...
(O.K. you can pity us, just silently, thank you.)

For A Small Retainer Fee...

Sad, but true! MacNutPie and Raj Mahal have retained the services of Crane, Poole, and Schmitdt in advance of the arrival of our new cuddle cups, tunnels, and huts. Can you believe that?

Why? Because certain piggies share a reputation for stealing all the newest, all the best, and simply all the Whatever from their submissive, peace-loving, affection-giving cage-mates!

It was my idea to LITIGATE!
It was my idea to retain legal counsel BEFORE the arrival of OprahPiggie's "Favorite Things" to protect the innocent.

And, should these new, best of the Best items need to go into "protective custody" (as I am hoping they will) WOW!
YUM-YUM GETZ IT ALL,  ALL OF IT, DID YOU HEAR THAT,
IT WILL ALL BE mine, ALL mine, NOBODY'S BUT MINE!

(If it please the court, of course.

NO, MAKE THAT especially if it don't please the court!)

Yeah, baby, YUM-YUM RULES...
"MOM, WHAT A GAVEL?
ME WANTz one of them, TOO!"

Unless...of course... some of what we are getting already is mine...
(OOPSIE, think the tunnel might be...uh...never mind.)


Mom, why did you just put on George Harrison singing: "My, Me, Mine?"
You don't usually play rock music at night...You know we prefer Enya
at dusk...hmmm. Whatever.

Sincerely,
Your friend,

GENEROUS GIFTS

Thanks to a generous donation made to the Sanctuary and the kindness of Jen Sawyer of Jens Custom Crafts, whose website we have linked on the right under Blogs We Follow, the Piggles shall be receiving a brand new, custom-made Snowflake Hut and YumYum will have his very own CandyCane Tunnel since Calvin sort of "borrowed" his and...sort of kept it! Meanwhile, Coconut sort of "borrowed" MacNutPie's customized Cuddle Cup because she was living happily in her cardboard box until she dragged said box over on TOP OF MacNut's Cuddle Cup and became part of the 99% and OCCUPIED Pie Street, leaving MacNut out in the cold. So, he will be receiving a Hut only slightly smaller than the beautiful snowflake hut pictured here...and Jen is going to surprise us so we don't know what it will look like.

Just so you know, Jen makes beautiful, soft, moisture-wicking, washable things for a whole bevy of darlings from dormice and hedgehogs to cats and anything soft and cuddly...chinchillas, ferrets, you name it! O.K. we made up the dormouse. Are they real? Yes, they are. They just don't live here. They live in England we think.

Bedtime and way past...good night, all...we can hardly wait to send you another photo essay of Guinea Piggles play like Guinea Villagers in their new GuineaVillas! Mayhem certain to ensue and entertain.

And donor person, even though you are still without power and cannot read this: THANK YOU!
WE ARE DEEPLY GRATEFUL AS IT WILL BEGIN SNOWING AT LOWER ELEVATIONS THIS WEEK AND IT IS ALREADY BrrrrrrrrrrrrCOLD!

Sincerely Yours,
YumYum and the Piggles

My Best Friend and Me!

Last month when one of the companies mom does business with offered us a free photo mug, I jumped at the chance to put this on it and send it to Eric to remind him how much fun we had "bonding" two summers ago up in the high Sierra Nevadas! He said opening the package was like trying to get into Fort Knox or something because we all took turns with the tape and since it got stuck on our delicate toes and long feet, we kind of made an impenetrable mess! But he said Lorien laughed and laughed. Yeah, that surfer really funny, him thinking me a hamster.

But we're good, we're good now, and in the next post you can read about how I inspired him to do a wonderful act of generosity even though I am not named specifically in the newspaper article or on Eric's Facebook or anywhere, actually,
but only because I am YumYum, TOO HUMBLE TO TAKE CREDIT FOR SUCH AN ALTRUISTIC IDEA THAT I THOUGHT OF ALL BY MYSELF EVEN IF
ERIC AND HIS BRO-IN-LAW GET ALL THE CREDIT FOR THE IDEA THAT I THOUGHT UP ALL BY MYSELF O.K. NOT REALLY BUT I COULD HAVE.

Thank you,

YumYum

My Buddy Eric Still Doing Good Stuff!

PFINGSTEN: Molly the Owl is still making the rounds, with a recent stop in Africa

^^^CHECK THIS OUT!^^^

Yesterday a newspaper article published the coolest story about Eric's book,
"Molly the Owl" making her way across the world, doing good works for
needy people. (Well, who among us does not need Molly? I mean, really?)

Molly like the Energizer Bunny, she just keeps on going...touching millions over the

webcam and now, countless more, in the farthest reaches of the world!

Go Molly, Eric, and Lorien and Lorien's brother and his family and - and -

well, good on ya, mates!

Happy PIG-O-WEEN!

THANK YOU, MARIFAN, FOR GIVING US THE PERFECT NAME FOR OUR SPECIAL DAY!

Carrots are our Treat-O-Ween FAVE-O-FAVES (very, VERY orange carrots & carrot-tops!) as we all scramble to make ourselves as SCARY! as possible like that episode of South Park, "The Startling" (see somewhere below, it posted!) but we will fail to frighten because of the Unbearable Cuteness of Being...us!

TOO CUTE,  TOO CUTE, WE ARE JUST TOO****CUTE!!!!!

BOO!
