This is NOT pretty.
If you came looking for pretty
you better move along.
CharlesInCharge
is ONE YEAR old.
Yep-
ONE!
AND....
He ate a turtle for his
birthday!
See! I TOLD YOU it is not pretty.
Poor turtle.
Do you want to see him
BEFORE
CharlesInCharge
got a hold on him?
Pretty cute, huh?
His Mama Mimi baked it for him.
It was truly a turtle cake...
with layers of pecans and caramel
and chocolate inside.
CharlesInCharge was thrilled...
The turtle?
Not so much.
I think the head came off
first...
probably a good thing...
no brain-no pain, as they say.
Had he been smart he would have
crawled away whilst he still
had the chance.
Too Late, Mr.Turtle!
Awww...
Mr. Turtle is
All Gone!
Who ate him?
Mr. Turtle is
All Gone!
Who ate him?
I think the evidence
speaks for itself.
Now, if you are
speaks for itself.
Now, if you are
VERY GOOD
and promise not to spit
in the mashed potatoes
when no one is looking,
tomorrow I will share
a bit of our
EARLY THANKSGIVING
that we enjoyed
on Sunday.
I am off for the day
to enjoy
my family.
Not sure WHAT happened
I could NOT post this
