Transformations and Explanations

I finally understand why there haven't been any presents underneath our Christymas tree. I understand why the hot-as-hell box has been getting a lot of work, and why the house smells so, so, well, good.

All those biscotti and cookies the Lady has been baking (and she made twelve different kinds of biscotti),
and has kept in the icebox are now being packaged in boxes and wrapped up.There's something else she's been doing. It's obviously very strenuous, because she makes all kinds of grunting and groaning noises while she's been doing it. Here are some pictures.

First, she starts with a great big bowl, and puts all kindsa stuff in it, like milk and butter and eggs. And lots and lots of white dirt. Then she dumped it onto the counter.
After that, she started hitting that sticky stuff, and knocking it all around. She obviously won, because it looked much nicer afterward.
Then she left it alone. And it grew!

But she mustn't have been happy with it, because she smashed it.

It grew back! Heh.
She cut it up, and put it in these boxes, and then they all went into the hot-as-hell-box.
The house smelled REALLY good. Here's what that sticky stuff looks like now:

Gizzy says it's Bread, and that people like it even more than homemade cookies, and that homemade cookies are a lot like 'nip to people, so this stuff, this bread, must be REALLY special.

Gizzy says that the Lady makes this bread only for the very special people in her life. He says it's a better Christymas present than anything that comes from a store. He says it's a gift of her hands, and that means it's a Gift of Love.

All you cats and people who are traveling to visit your loved ones this holiday season, you be careful and be safe. I don't want any people or any cats (or woofies) getting hurt.


Oh! Oh! I can't wait! It's Christymas Eve! Christymas is tomorrow, Christymas is tomorrow...
