I got the menu here. What should we order? |
Hi-Ho and welcome to Hump Day. I’m getting ready to order takeout. Wednesday used to be pizza day in the condo but since this Lent thing started, everything is topsy and turvy and definitely not to The Cat’s liking. The Cat doesn’t like pizza. The Cat likes Chinese food hence the Chinese menu.
Yesterday I axed the peeps why we can’t have Chinese this Wednesday instead. They replied they’re not eating meat on Wednesday for Lent so they wouldn’t be able to get pork fried rice or that chick-hen on a stick that I love. In fact, they wouldn’t be able to order any kind of chicken. They put the kibosh on my idea.
Let’s see what I’m gonna order … |
Then I axed to see a menu. Surely they could eat something that I’d like too. Hmmmm, they could order shrimp.
I don’t think it’s fair the peeps are making me suffer for their beliefs so I put two questions before you: Are your peeps giving up something good that you like for Lent? What’s your favorite takeout food?
NEWS FLASH! Nellie made me this pawsome drawing which goes purrfectly with this post. She made me some General Tso Mouse. Yum! Thank you, Nellie!
Does your Chinese restaurant do those whole fishes, including the eyes? Not so easy to put in a takeout container? Maybe the peeps could order a veggie dish and get some chicken on a stick on the side for you.
ReplyDeleteDa mommas had Chinese food today - but dey ate out and I didn't get none!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad my human doesn't do this Lent thing! I wish she would eat MORE meat, though - she doesn't have it every day.
ReplyDeleteMy mom love da burger calls 8 bit, but Me love they go get Fish & chips so I can have a bite of da fishy fish :)
ReplyDeleteTake out..yum. No Lent thing here.......thank cod. Have a wonderful Wednesday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
Oh what a cool drawing!! Love it :)
ReplyDeleteI prefer chinese food too CK.

We don't do Lent thing here. I think shrimp is a good idea during Lent, nice and crunchy like insects :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the drawing. It's very cute!
Hi Keisha! It's nice to meet you! Mommy doesn't observe lent, but she is a vegetarian, so that means we don't get meat. Ever. We think it's very unfair. And we think you should get Chinese food today.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Lola and Lexy
WE love the drawing Nellie did for you CK!!
ReplyDeleteWe still kinda hope you get some 'insects' to eat for dinner.
What a great drawing! Well, you know that Ashton loves takeout chicken best. Any kind of chicken. But she'll eat most anything.
ReplyDeleteThat's a PAWSOME drawing, CK!!! Nellie did such a nice job... we love it!
ReplyDeleteSo for Chinese... Glogirly is partial to chicken & broccoli with ginger.
I'm not a fan... I prefer my own food and my own treats.
Waffles.. well, we all know he's a chicken whore.

Mes LOVES KFC!!!! Mes will try to raid the garbage for KFC (which is why we now have a tall metal can) But mes also LOVES Chinese too-especially Chicken Soo Gui (without the Lemon sauce).
ReplyDeleteMes happy yous liked your wining cartoon!
Kisses
Nellie
that drawing is darling! Mom LOVES shrimp...she loves lo mein, just about anything! Mom is an Asian food freak but rarely eats it cause it is so fattening. She tries to make less fattening versions on her own.
ReplyDeleteTake out is a better idea when it is brought in CK! We love that Nellie art of you!
ReplyDeleteWe agree with you, CK. Just because the parents can't eat Chinese, why can't you?! Definitely NOT FAIR!
ReplyDeleteNellie did a great job with that graphic! We don't eat meat on Fridays during Lent, the only Wednesday we don't eat it is Ash Wednesday. We used to give up chocolate, ice cream and chips, but this year I decided to try something new so we gave up negativity. We can't say anything bad about anything, not even commercials or tv shows.
ReplyDeleteCK...round heer.....lent iz everee day wear BURD iz concerned...and conga rats two ewe on winnin nellie's contest !!! grate answer ♥♥♥
ReplyDeleteMommy loves General Tso's Chicken, but we don't order Chinese foodies. No. 1, don't have the money No. 2, the delivery costs are "outrageous" says Mommy. The place across the street (!) is yucky. They overcook just about everything. So, no Chinese for us. Mommy used to work by this, she says, "awesome Chinese place" but it is too far away now.
ReplyDeleteYou made us hungry for Chinese!
PS. Some Chinese food is vegetarian, so there, peoples!
Shrimp are insects? Wow! I love insects! As for take out, my favorite is CHICKEN!!! I'll take most any kind but KFC does have an irresistible aroma. Sadly, we don't get take out anymore. There is nothing near our new house. I love the drawing Nellie did for you.
ReplyDeleteNo takeout food here, but we would chose shrimps if we could ! Your drawing is lovely ! Purrs
ReplyDeleteIt hit 50 degrees here today and Mommy bought her first Creemee (soft serve ice cream) of the year! She brought me home a little of the vanilla at the bottom of the cup because I *love* ice cream!!! --Truffles
ReplyDeleteThat's a great picture Nellie did for you. My people brought home fish and chips tonight so I got some cod.
ReplyDeleteThe only Lent I know is when The Staff says to me "give me back my chair, Austin, I only lent it to you" MOL I crack myself up!!
ReplyDeleteAustin's comment made us MOL and we lost our train of thought what we wanted to say. ;)
ReplyDeleteIt all sounds yummy to me!
ReplyDeleteNoodle and crew
Hmm...that doesn't seem fair to me. You need your protein.
ReplyDeleteWait, but you need meat, CK. You're a cat! Just because Pop and TW aren't eating meat for Lent should have no bearing on what you get to eat. You should order your fave from that Chinese restaurant. Just saying!
ReplyDeleteNellie's artwork of you is DA BOMB!
We saw that precious graphic you got for winning the sentence completing challenge. Very lucky. Nellie's mom makes such beautiful things. We don't get human food so it doesn't matter what our humans do. Lily grabbed a wheat thin from Mom's plate a couple days ago, ate it right up, walked three steps and barfed it all up. That is why we don't get human food. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
ReplyDeleteWow, we don't know if we are more impressed by the fact that your Humans are giving something up for Lent or by that fantabulous drawing of you--it's just PURRFECT for this post!
ReplyDeleteYou were kinda snarky there about the whole chalk outline thing. Still, she pretty much has to creep up on me when I am sleeping because as soon as I hear the little chime that tells me the camera is on, I finds a way to disappear or make it all but impossible for her to take a decent picture. I do take my share of nappies, of course, but c'mon: a chalk outline??? No way!
Come on over and see! We can order chick-hen on a stick.
We love Chinese food. Everything sounds so good! Hope you had a delicious meal
