    Beautiful cat. Thank you for hosting Feline Friday and for participating in the fill-ins, great answers. I had to look up Balut- and I almost lost my breakfast when I saw it. I can see why you can’t bring yourself to try it. 🙂 I am glad you are very content with your life. Have a nice weekend. XO

    That cat is so beautiful! No Balut for me. I had to look it up. I never heard of it before. Ewwww…. I haven’t been to Cold Stone in years. Their ice cream is soooooo good. Have a great weekend!

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.

    Kathe W. says:

    Gorgeous kitty! and I had no idea what balut was. I looked it up and EEEEWWWWW I would never ever eat that.
    Here are my answers- some are like yours!
    1. I just can’t bring myself to throw away some momentos.
    2. I have a hankering for a Thanksgiving Turkey dinner.
    3. My sweetheart Russell changed my life.
    4. At this stage of my life, I have no complaints and I am very happy.

      I think everyone agrees with your Eeeewwww. Love your fill-ins and am not surprised by the last two at all. 🙂

  12. Wing Commander Basil & The B Team – UK – Well, now there's a question! Furstly and most importantly I'm a cat if mew hadn't already guessed. I got my Wing Commander status in September 2018 but that hasn't slowed me up at all! I tweet, Instacat, FB, Tumble & Pin too and now there's Basil TV on YouTube. All in all I'm a thoroughly Modern Cat; a cat of the 21st century, mew might say. My human & Purrsonal Assistant aka P.A. is Cathrine Garnell, and she writes books including a tale about my fictional alter ego, Basil the Bionic Cat. [See Books Page] I live in a multi-cat household, and mew can meet the rest of The B Team here most days of the week, as they all like a turn on the blog. I like mice, but then don't we all? I also like fresh tuna, chicken and prawns. I LOVE catnip, not in any excess I might add before mew jump to any wild conclusions. Thanks so much for dropping by, as we The B Team, love making new furriends, so do leave us a comment and say hi.
    Wing Commander Basil & The B Team says:

    Epic kitty, so purretty! Love the fill-ins and we’d say NO to #1 too! MOL Happy Friyay Sandee and thanks for hosting XX

      Thank for linking up and it appears no one wants to try balut. Happy weekend. 🙂

    Caren says:

    that kitty is GORGEOUS! I had to click on Balut because I didn’t know what it was, wouldn’t find me eating it either! Also, I LOVE coffee ice cream, never had it from Cold Stone, now you are making me want it. My Grandmother used to LOVE coffee ice cream and used to have one scoop every single night. I remember her eating super carefully during the day so she could have her beloved coffee ice cream at night. She was only 4 ft 11 and had to watch her weight to stay tiny.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      Balut is nasty. Yes on the coffee ice cream. Really good. Cold Stone is a wonderful place. A bit expensive, but it’s worth it. 🙂

    Oh my goodness, I never heard of Balut, but I only had to take a quick look at your link to come up with NO. LOL
    I do love coffee ice cream though! Have a great weekend and Luke sends a big smooch! ♥

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      No one seems impressed with Balut. Can’t imagine why. Cold Stones coffee lovers ice cream is the very best. 🙂

    DrillerAA says:

    That is a very regal looking feline. It’s my understanding that over 95% of calico cats are female.

    Great set of answers. Good to see that I am not the only ice cream lover in the blogosphere.

    I just can’t bring myself to ride a roller coaster again.
    I have a hankering for Chocolate Sheet Cake ice cream from Blue Bell.
    Jesus, my wife, my daughter and the the grandcrew changed my life, in that order.
    At this stage of my life, I at peace with my world.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      You’re not the only ice cream lover at all.

      I agree with your number one. I’ve never had blue bell ice cream, but I hear it’s delicious. I’m not surprised with your answer to number 2. We are both the same on $4. 🙂

    That kitty is gorgeous! We saw balut many years ago on the Andrew Zimmern’s ‘Bizarre Foods’ show. Ugh… And we’re open to many foreign foods. Isn’t a happy marriage the best? ~hugs~ Be well, my dear.
