Crude Labelling for Fibbin’ Friday, Aug 11, 2023

Something a little different this week and of the visual kind.
These are all close ups of everyday items, but what could they be?
They are numbered 1 and 2, 3 and 4, 5 and 6, 7 and 8, 9 and 10.

Here are my answers. Please pardon my crudity in spots. The pictures made me do it!!!

  1. Top view of a jar full of toothpicks
  2. Kim Kardashian’s new string bikini.
  3. Pink’s pubic hair
  4. Starry night under the influence of acid.
  5. My glue stick storage drawer
  6. End of a skinned papaya.
  7. A tummy full of sauerkraut.
  8. Inside of a tummy after someone inhaled instead of exhaled while blowing bubbles.
  9. Gestating black holes
  10. The Jolly Green Giant’s anus

Booted

My friend Gloria found a good use for this old boot, but I think it is nature’s intention to reclaim it. It now resides on a ledge in my front garden.

Shooing With Tongue on the Tongue of a Shoe.

Shooing with Tongue on the Tongue of a Shoe

There once was a mooch named McGerhard McFloo
who spent his whole life on the tongue of a shoe
where he shooed away flintlocks and floogles and stuff.
As a matter of fact, he would get downright rough.

He would beat them with bagels and flog them with floggles
from the foot of their feet to the top of their toggles.
Then he bopped them again every minute or two
till those flintocks and floogles were beat black and blue.

But they just wouldn’t leave till that mooch McFloo sung
a rock-a-bye ballad with only one lung.
Then they leapt and they lithered until they were gung.
Now McGerhard McFloo only shoos with his tongue!

Now I Know Why They Call Them Swallows!!!

We have a new family in the neighborhood, perched atop Sergio and David’s long-handled dusters. Luckily, they are in a spot where my cats can’t reach them, so they’ve resorted to a rest period.

Cat times Four!!

No time to blog as I have kids art camp so I’m reblogging this blog from years ago when Kukla, Fran, Ollie and Roo finally had their shots and were neutered and spayed so they could live outside. Here is their adventure:

Busy Day All Around!

When I tried to get in a little quiet time in the hot tub before a very busy day, the doggies joined me. Morrie tried to join in but then deserted for a little Zen time of his own.
