WHO SAYS OLD DOGS CAN'T HUNT?

"How about RG's homemade apple pie from home grown apples? OK - the crust is from the Pillsbury box, but still ... BL had TWO pieces!" - Culinary RG "What an awful thing to do to perfectly good apples." - Zoey the Unimpressed

RESTAURANT CRITICS ...

"This is the worst buffet ever, Winnie." - Lucky"And I haven't seen any wait-people since we got here." - Winston

HERE'S GOLDIE!

"That is snow out there RG. I wanna come in." - Chilly Goldie "Picture was taken during the last snow - Goldie et.al. out for a deck spin while their condos being cleaned. It wasn't animal abuse. Goldie is pretty matted and tangled and we are clipping and defelting and she looks pretty bad. I don't think she likes that either!" - RG the verbose

BL HAS SOME 'SPLANIN' TO DO

"This came in the mail yesterday - to BL! Wow. The #1 cigar will cost you $10.00 and change. A half-decent one is $5. She has no explanation, excuse, or recollection. I wonder if we have a subscription?" - RG the perplexed"Our poor deceased Baxter was the cigar and good whiskey type. I prefer a good carrot." - Lucky

"WE HAVE CO-HABITATION! ....

.... Zoey has never been interested in going in the box, but Chico spends hours in there. Peeked over the edge this evening ... Zoey? Zoey? ... Well, wadda ya know?" - RG the ecstatic "KB! KB! - Come see!"

"Why?" - KB the aloof

"Say, listen all of you out there making fun of my style of refrigerator door decor - have you looked at the layout of your Google Members yet? Hmmm? How about your Facebook friends and Likes??? Hmmmm?" - RG the Exonerated!

(By the way, my bad - sorry. The wonderful framed dragon yesterday is from The QiPapers and the ultra-talented Diana Moll and you better scoot over there and get yourself one, toot sweet. Please?)

MRWARRRRRRRRR ...............

"It's the year of the dragon and there be dragons here. A real one and this dandy picture! Dragons rock!" - RG the Dragon"While I am on the subject of who is in charge here, many of you have seen the picture of our refrigerator door. Go over to Leeks if you haven't, but do come back. Now, below is what MY door would look like, if I was in charge. Perhaps you can better appreciate the uh, er, difficulties, here from time to time." - RG the Neat.
Next, at your own peril, try out this website to analyze blogs and websites for which gender the voice is!! Go ahead, but we already have done all of you - BaWaHaHaHahahaha ... (ooops. Sorry.)

"Gender, schmender - we are NOT talking to either one of you since you washed our butts and made them soggy. A pox on you both." - Zoey and Chico, the Cute

AWwwww .....

IT WAS GOOD WHILE IT LASTED ....

"Glad it's not me!" - Warm, toasty Princess

"FINALLY IT IS SAFE ....

... to come out for a snack. Nobody around to make me go out in this weather." - Hungry Princess"Hang in there girl - the end is near - oh - of the snow I mean!" - RG the tactless.

GO AWAY ALREADY!

"Getting It!""Having It!"
"Had It!"
"Three times is Enough!"
"Even once is too much for me, RG. I'm not going - anywhere." - The Reluctant Princess

ALMOST GOT IT!

"Things are progressing just swimmingly with the new couple. They get along fine and spend enough of this sort of "together" time and much time of independence - usually one in the box and one out. They even - more or less - respect each other's food dishes. Not much outdoor time - we are in the midst of our annual snow event and it is cold! We are mighty pleased with results!" - RG the, well, the pleased! "Now, what's with this 100 Followers thing? Who are you people and what do you want? Have you any idea where we are going? It's a Blog, not a Cult! How about sending money!" - RG the Mystified

"ARCHIMEDES' WIFE ....

.... took the picture. Archimedes (aka RG) levered and balanced and tipped and wheeled a currently un-needed bunny condo out of the house and off to storage - in our yearly snow! - Archimedes ... and now the latest in what has become all the rage - bunnies and rocks!!!

HOW SWEET IT IS!

For Zoey and Chico

When her darling Baxter left
to go across the Rainbow Bridge
Zoey felt so sad and all bereft.

But soon she saw through her cage wire
another bunny she could admire
and he was a lionhead just like her!

She loved his big brown eyes and handsome mane
his sturdy helpful nature and his Spanish sounding name.

Chico, just like all the rest,
could not help but fall for Zoey's charms -
of all the bunnies she was the best!

Soon the humans, seeing what was going on,
decided they would try to bond
these two lively bunnies.

Now here they are, the loving couple -
Zoey wearing a bridal veil of lace
as they explore their new shared living space.

So here's to the future for Zoey and Chico -
long may they binky and snuggle together -
whatever the weather!

Thank you Juliet Wilson aka Crafty Green Poet for the perfect words.

BUNN-E-VISION ....

"Rats. It's over. Benji - slide another nickle down the slot." - Goldie

"Right, here goes. - ding-a-ling-ding - Oh boy, more Bugs Bunny!" - Benji

"Now guys - lights out at 10:00, remember?" - RG the strict

TALKIN' POLITICS HERE

"Say there Boyz. Are you Republicans or are you Democrats?" - RG "What's the difference, RG?" "Well Winnie, Republicans work hard and keep what they get for themselves, mostly." "Sounds pretty good to me, I'm a pretty hard worker. What about you Clucker?" "I dunno yet. Tell me about a Democrat RG." "OK Lucky. A Democrat collects a little bit from everybody and then gives lots of it back to whoever might need it." "So poor bunnies like us with no skills and lousy thumbs could score treats pretty good from Democrats, eh?" "I suspect so Lucky, yes, I suspect so."

"YOU GO BARACK!"

"TRY TO SMILE .....

... I'm not sitting in here all day you know." - KB the weird"So many special bunnies just gone. I need a smile. Thanks KB. You are OK - for a cat." - RG the Still Sad

YOU ARE ALL SO KIND ....

"Everyone here at the House of Rabbits thanks you all for your many kind words, thoughts, and actions. It is a bit lonely and a bit sad but we will be OK and get on. We must. I insist." - Racer the Bright, the Light, the Right and a word from BL - "We are so grateful for this caring family of bunny lovers we have been so lucky to find over the years. Only you know how it feels to lose one of these precious little spirits, and your words (and actions) touch our hearts. We have both read every single word more than once, and they help us deal with this more than you can imagine. Thank you. Truly. (You can read my last words about dear Savannah HERE.)" - BL

SAVANNAH HAS DIED ....

Our special, special lady died Saturday evening, January 7. She was 9 years old.

She was clearly failing a very few days prior and we did all we could to keep her comfortable and just loved her and loved her .... and now we miss her so much.
This is the first picture we have of Savannah. We got her in the Spring of 2004. She was pregnant and was going to the Shoofly Farm summer camp to have babies as part of the kids experience there. She came back and graced our lives here ever since.

"I THINK, GOLDIE ....

.... we need a new box here." - Benji "I think one is coming right up guys!" - RG the snappy

SALAD BAR ....

"Hey! Boyz! Guess what my New Year's Resolution is!" "Oh boy Winnie - ya think it's for more treats for us?" "We can hope Clucker, but he isn't real sharp like that." "Listen up Boyz - it's this. I am switching from cheap, crapo decaf coffee to expensive, delicious decaf coffee. I bought some Colombian Beans and ground them fresh! I start tomorrow!" "He's nuts Lucky." "But he's OUR nut Winston. We're stuck with him." "Lucky Us." "Ya think?"

"I CAN'T DECIDE ...

... should I be a bunny? ... ... Or should I be a bird? Wadda Ya Tink folks?" - KB the Weird
"Why don't you be a plumber and make us some money?" - RG the banker
