Day 67: Birthdays

Occasionally one of the large featherless beings will have some personal festivities. They call these gatherings “birthdays.” When one of these events happens, often the other featherless beings who are in attendance will focus closely on the one being celebrated. If this occurs, don’t worry. It is easy to fix. All you have to doContinueContinue reading “Day 67: Birthdays”

Introduction: Pearl on Film

If you are really pretty and have obvious acting talent, people often want to film you. It just comes with the territory. Recently a certain feathery someone’s Mommy learned how to use her iPhone video app and the pressure of the spotlight hit an all-time high. Luckily, the repeat crowned winner of the “Prettiest BirdContinueContinue reading “Introduction: Pearl on Film”

Day 66: Eagle Eye

For those beings who were lucky enough to pop out with an extra helping of cuteness, sometimes it can seem like the red carpet just rolls up to greet them wherever they go. Lunch is a great example of this. Every day you get hungry (frequently) and every day your large featherless assistant thoughtfully (hastily)ContinueContinue reading “Day 66: Eagle Eye”

Wet Bird Couture: The High Top Ponytail

Some hair styles never go out of fashion. This is because they look fabulous no matter what face shape you have (or at least I assume this is why, considering I know about as much about fashion as I know about nuclear fission). What I do know is that some celebrities seem to have toContinueContinue reading “Wet Bird Couture: The High Top Ponytail”

Day 65: (Birthday &) Cashew!

It seems only fitting that Pearl decided to celebrate his Mommy’s 43rd birthday by trying yet another new food. Go Pearl!! 🙂 This time, it was the “cashew” that found itself on a certain feathery someone’s morning menu (the “walnut” was barely spared as photos will prove).

Day 64: “Ledge Dining”

Most diners think dinner is all about the victuals. But more refined diners know a fine meal is as much about creative ingestion as it is about crunchy, tasty selections. In short, a) the more fun you can have with your food, and b) the more of a mess you can make while dining, theContinueContinue reading “Day 64: “Ledge Dining””

When We Cook

Sometimes special occasions demand that individuals who have less natural aptitude for kitchen-related things learn to cook. This is when frozen, take-out or delivered foods can come in handy. But when you do have to prepare any sort of food item for someone you love (whom you do not want to poison) it helps toContinueContinue reading “When We Cook”

Day 63: Give Me More

Britney Spears isn’t the only one who constantly wants MORE. Pearl “More” Cutts could out-shimmy and shake her any day of the week and twice on Sundays. Let’s say his Mommy is busy trying to earn rent, and this activity requires her to use the flat folding thing with all the tasty clicking keys someoneContinueContinue reading “Day 63: Give Me More”

Day 62: Full Service

Being born small and cute with fluffy feathers entitles you to a certain level of predetermined privilege. It’s not that you ask for it (unless “expectation” counts as asking). Rather, you are just so cute it is offered automatically. The large featherless beings, er, flock around you, clamoring to accommodate your every need. This canContinueContinue reading “Day 62: Full Service”

Day 61: Sunday Brunch

Sunday brunch is a favorite amongst many different species – non-feathered and also feathered. While most non-feathered species tend to enjoy a varied menu, including a selection of beverages and many tasty food items, feathered species are perfectly satisfied with one, well-prepared, and exceptionally tasty item. For instance, a waffle. Author: Shannon Cutts Co-Author: PearlContinueContinue reading “Day 61: Sunday Brunch”
