From Deviled Egg Football, to Apericube Toss, to Rubber Band Heist; who needs television or internet news when you have les deux freres to entertain you with their constant antics?
I can tell you that there is no need to buy those little stuffed mice from the Gamm Vert.
Ollie and Opie continue to find creative ways to have fun and sometimes reek havoc!
After our champagne and foie gras party, I had a few of the deviled eggs left. We did some damage. Usually there are more. I had this plate in the top photo sitting on the counter as I was cleaning up. In no time, each boy had their own deviled egg on the floor and was batting them back and forth and then nibbling!
They were having so much fun. I just let them go and cleaned up when they were finished. Of course after so much fun, they need a nap so it's perfect clean up time!
Then the other day, I look at Ollie who had stolen an apericube out of the bowl on the kitchen counter.
These perfect little squares of cheese are wrapped in colorful foil with the flavor labeled in French and in English. Inside, you will find a trivia question (alas only in French).
I LOVE APERICUBES!
Apparently, so do the boys.
While they batted and shuffled a variety of colors on the floor, I was amazed. Then a couple went sailing through the air and Ollie began eating one through the foil. It was time to stop. I don't think the cheese would hurt them, but foil in their tummies is probably not a good idea.
This morning, Opie was at it again. They both love playing with rubber-bands. Playing is one thing, but Opie gets up on the counter and steals them from their little lidded china container on the side wicker shelf.
This morning he had his whole body on the shelf as he got the lid off and stole the last of the rubber bands. There is nothing to eat in there. You'd have thought there was something more than rubber-bands the way he was behaving. I've moved the empty china container elsewhere so it doesn't break and will have to go search for rubber-bands on the floor when I need them.
Thanks for humoring me today. With the insanity in the states, these boys are a wonderful diversion and my little angel therapists. They continue to make me smile. Maybe you're smiling too!
Happy Saturday!
