Boxes – we love ’em! Combine that with bacon and it’s a double-treat day!
Welcome to Bacon Box day….huh? Well I invented the occasion just for today since this year Box Day falls on MY day………if you can get your bacon served to you inside your favorite box today you are having an abundance of luck. I myself will be separating the two – I don’t want any bacon grease inside my box although I must admit the smell would be nice for days to come. Still, a grease spot inside a box isn’t very TIDY is it. I’m a fan of boxes but mostly at Christmas time. Christmas gift boxes are kind of “flimsy” cardboard – have you noticed? Well that makes them easier to shape to your liking. Stiff cardboard boxes are swell and secure but not as “moldable” as Christmas boxes………..
Crammed in a Christmas box! A little “overhang” in the back.
OOPS….a little tear in the side? Just adding my personal touch!
I’ll be enjoying my bacon outside the box…………
Mom – are you makin’ bacon?
Of course she is…………a Saturday without bacon is no Saturday at all!
Happy Bacon and Box Day!
Love, Sammy

You’re so wise, S. I never realized the advantages and disadvantages of the 2 kinds of boxes. You have obviously studied this thoroughly. Enjoy your bacon on this doubly special day. BTW – if there was a grease spot on cardboard, I’d eat the cardboard. Just sayin’.

You, dear Cupcake, would not be the only grease-spot eating critter – that spot would be just too tempting for most – I, on the other hand, have the REAL thing to munch on today! WOOT!

You are a clever boy Sammy, much better to have a box you can adjust. I agree that bacon grease in your box would not be tidy and now that the Broomhildas have gone missing, you don’t want to make any extra work for your folks. Have a great day!XO

Summer I have to think that at a great big Kitty Kat Convention like Blogpaws there WILL be bacon – if not, there should be a huge protest staged! I hope you and your human have a super duper good time (and that you DO in fact tell me that there was bacon on the menu!).

Sammy, you are so adorable in your boxes. Mau wants to apologize for not making it to Scouts today. It was our humans’ fault.
