The featherless beings are always making such a big deal about something called the “Mediterranean Diet.” This appears to be somehow connected to their mystifying obsession with reducing roundness. Sometimes the only way to correct these types of misperceptions is to pretend to join in. Then you can gently lead them back to where trueContinueContinue reading “Day 254: The Mediterranean Diet”

It can be tough being in the public eye all the time. Fans can even get the wrong idea about your lifestyle and personal habits. For instance, sometimes fans might think that just because you often pose with culinary favorites like waffles, muffins, and (whole loaves of) freshly baked bread, this means all you ever doContinueContinue reading “Day 253: Get Fit with Baked Goods”

Just having feathers automatically means you also come pre-installed with an especially keen aesthetic sense. Unfortunately, you cannot always say the same for the large featherless being who lives in your house with you. She likes to “play it safe” when it comes to interior design (and redesign). You, on the other hand, were born toContinueContinue reading “Day 252: Stealth Remodeling”

Being small, round, feathery, and in high demand means you must maintain the highest of standards. And since “you are what you eat,” those standards include your menu. What this often entails is hiring an in-house chef. If you happen to be grey and white and live with a large featherless being who cannot boilContinueContinue reading “Day 251: Happy Birthday Small Tree!”

Whether you have feathers or no feathers, certain essential truths remain the same. For instance, styrofoam is not to be tolerated. You give it an inch, it will take a mile. Luckily, since this is an essential truth, styrofoam has many natural predators, of which the most ferocious is unexpectedly diminutive.

Sometimes when you have feathers and a sharp predatory beak, your expert stalking skills may guide you to a whole herd of delicious prey. In this scenario, there is just one of you and many of them. Luckily, nature has already equipped you with every advantage…which means no self-defense tactic the herd can try would improve itsContinueContinue reading “Day 249: Scones”

When you have feathers, musical talent is just a given. And since everyone loves being sung to, when you do have singing talent, it is important to sing as frequently (and as loudly) as possible so that the most beings can benefit. While occasionally you may agree to sing backing vocals – to encourage newer singersContinueContinue reading “Day 248: Singing “Lead””

Nearly five decades ago today, the Tall Tree and the Small Tree got hitched. With so many Trees together in one household, it is little surprise that eventually at least one family member sprouted feathers. And since all the best things come in small (avian) packages, as an Anniversary present, Pearl and his Mommy want to dedicate today’sContinueContinue reading “Day 247: Happy Anniversary Tall Tree and Small Tree!”

A few months ago, theatrical history was made when a certain talented actor (with feathers) made his television debut. This soon led to receipt of the rare and prestigious “Golden Waffle” award for acting excellence. Now, for his long-awaited (and eagerly anticipated) sophomore performance, Pearl Cutts is back. On his behalf, his tireless (exhausted) largeContinueContinue reading “Day 246: More “Acting””

Every year, hordes of featherless beings spend stacks of that green crunchy paper trying to alter and streamline their round shapes. Yet new breaking research suggests that round, feathery shapes actually score highest in “prettiness polls.” While this may not change behavior anytime soon in the ones without feathers (who tend to be rather slowContinueContinue reading “Day 245: Prettiness Polls”
