When Caches has an extra good time eating, Lilly gives him the eyes 

And everyone knows he's going to get a thorough lick down...












 And on about the tenth bowl drop/avocado slip the fun is over

Until next time...

Klean n' Shine

Anyone who has met me knows that little things like smashed pillows on the sofa, crumbs on the counter, water spots on the faucet fixtures, crooked picture frames and dust bunnies don’t bother me at all. So what I am about to tell you may shock you. I few days ago ran out of crack, I mean Klean n’ Shine, a cleaning product from the 70’s that is so toxic it foams at the mouth but I can not stop using it because it cleans EVERYTHING and doesn’t streak and F you planet, I do a lot for you already, I LOVE KLEAN N’ SHINE. Anyway, I felt the can getting low and made a note to pick up a new can or 10 at the only remaining retailer brave enough to carry this cleaner, Star Market. I grab my cloth bags, see, I told you planet, and head for the market. I make my way directly to the cleaning aisle and scan the usual area only to find that there is no Klean n’ Shine.

Now running to the bin with such enthusiasm that you'd think I'd thrown away his very soul. "Oh, you weren't all done with your peach?" "NO!" As he is opening up the trash trying to dig out the juicy pieces mixed with coffee grounds and god knows what else. "Cache,  I will get you a new peach.  Once something is in the trash, it stays in the trash."  A statement I make at least 8 times a day. "I need dat, I neeeed dat!"  And he cries as he continues to try to dig the peach out. "We don't eat from the trash can (also said multiple times a day).  Mama will get you a new peach." "NO!  I need dat, I need dat!"  With the saddest cry EVER! "Okay baby, you go s...
