I feel pretty

Oh, so pretty, I feel pretty and witty and bright, And I pity any girl who isn’t me tonight. Our granddaughter enjoyed helping me. It was her who arranged the almond blossoms around this very pretty mouse girl. Monday Portrait

Dearly Departed

One of the oddities about speaking a second language is that certain words immediately combine in my brain with a set collocation even though the word may have many other meanings and other collocations.

The perp who was responsible for the tragic death of Mr Mouse was patently bewildered when he was caught just after the act.

The Only Success

we ever had with our live trap, aka mouse cage.

Bought when our cat, Henry, was still young and brought live mice in the house and sometimes they got away. We usually caught and released them but one was elusive. So we bought this trap. The only mouse that ever ventured inside was the Gruffalo mouse.

Nowadays Henry eats the mice he catches. Except for the green wobbly bit. (if you’ve ever read Pratchett’s The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents you know what I mean).
