While featherless and feathered beings look quite different on the outside, upon closer inspection they do enjoy a surprising number of the same hobbies. For example, they both like to eat waffles. They both like to take naps. And they both like to sit in front of the large rectangular glowing thing for hours. But if you have feathers, in manyContinueContinue reading “Day 46: The Sopranos”

In many featherless flocks, there is a tradition to consume a festive beverage called “wassail.” In fact, sometimes whole flocks will band together and start loudly singing in the streets about how much they like it. They do this until the neighbors open their doors to give the singers free wassail. When you have feathers, it is easy toContinueContinue reading “Day 45: Here We Come a Waffling”

Sometimes when featherless beings wish to sell something, they host what is called an “open house.” The hope here is, by the end of the event, a buyer will fall in love with the casa and have to have it for their very own. In the same way, when you are hoping to turn a nest-for-oneContinueContinue reading “Day 44: The Open Nest (House)”

Any true foodie appreciates the aesthetics associated with “fine dining.” For instance, with fine dining, you don’t have to go out and forage for your meal. Rather, a large featherless being called a “waitress” brings the meal right to you. Also, fine dining usually includes a dish that is one of your particular favorites – itContinueContinue reading “Day 43: Fine Dining”

Most ads for cars, clothing, and even cans of that odd-tasting bubbly stuff (the stuff that makes the featherless beings act kind of funny sometimes) seem to feature featherless lady models. Clearly, there is a connection between the presence of the ladies and the sale of the products. Since – empirically speaking – feathery beings are always more alluringContinueContinue reading “Day 42: The Best Way to Sell Anything”

There is a reason featherless beings often choose to flock together with feathery beings. Not only does having a feathery being in the flock ramp up the whole flock’s “attractiveness rating,” but beings with feathers are also very affectionate, energetic, and efficient. In other words, no matter what you want to do, you will doContinueContinue reading “Day 41: Researching with Grandma and Grandpa”

Being the official “greeter” for a whole flock is a task only the friendliest of beings can handle. You have to be so outgoing and social you can walk right up to a total stranger and see a new friend-in-the-making. For this reason (and also due to overall cuteness and prettiness) beings with feathers are typically an excellentContinueContinue reading “Day 40: Hello China”

In the 1980’s and 1990’s, there was a very popular sitcom called “Who’s the Boss?” In this show, there were all kinds of struggles over who is in charge of whom and what. It is worth mentioning there are no such struggles here at Casa Feathers ‘n Beak. We all know who is in charge.ContinueContinue reading “Day 45: Who’s the Boss?”

Family brunch with the flock is always a festive, full-service occasion. You have your own personal Small Chef (aka your Grandma) to prepare the delicacies (which are waffle-flavored and crisped to perfection). You have your large featherless personal waitress to take care of serving and clean-up. You have your preferred perch on the “Tall Tree” (akaContinueContinue reading “Day 39: Waffling with Grandpa”

Everything is just better when you include feathers. Take tea time, for instance. The boring featherless beings think the best way to enjoy tea time is to drink the stuff inside the box. This – of course – is only because they have never tried the crisp and delicious thick paper of the box itself. TheyContinueContinue reading “Day 38: The Right Way to Enjoy Tea Time”
