After making cupcakes for The Boy’s office Cake Day, I set about the business of cleaning up the kitchen.
A scritching-and-scrambling in the corner caught my attention. I glanced over my shoulder to spy two furbabies running away. Very suspicious behavior indeed.
Closer examination revealed:
One clever (and quick-pawed) kitty had snagged an unfrosted cupcake several hours before and had been playing bat-the-cupcake ever since. How that happened (the theft or the playing) without my knowledge is only a testament to the quick-pawedness of said thief and the over-worked-addled-brain-ness of said cook.
So…was the thief the idiot who wandered by and did a quick bat-the-cupcake right in front of me?
Or was the thief the kitty pretending to not see the cupcake at all while taking an overly casual bath nearby?
Lucky for the clean-up person the cupcake wasn't frosted.
No kidding!!
