TURRON & TREE RAT TUESDAY
.
Today the postguy visited my crib – he brought TWO parcels! For ME!
The first was from Spain – it came from Leo and Doggy. Guess what was inside? TURRONS! I’ve won it at Doggy’s blog, I think it was something with underwear – although I’m always bottomless.
Turrons are the confections from heaven – made with almonds, honey, sugar and egg white.
The recipe is older than the Black Forest and it was known in ancient Rome, where they called it Cupedia from the latin word cuppedo (Desire).
.
.
The desire or better known as greediness appeared immediately in the eyes of my staff. Even the mom who said she is on diet (ha! as if!) grabbed the objects of desire and they wolfed it down in seconds.
.
.
THANKS a lot Leo&Doggy for this Turrons – they are from paradise and I think the reason of the fall of Adam&Eve wasn’t an apple (they had no tablet pcs in paradise – I’m sure!) it must be this TURRONS!
.
.
Also Leo&Doggy wrote me a card of Sevilla by night – I hope we can visit this city once – it’s full of history and yes! magic too.
.
.
The second parcel came from Sweet William the Scot and his Lee – it was the TREE RAT WITH THE GOLDEN ACORN I’ve won at Williams competition.
.
.
It’s an air freshener with two different scents – I’ve got Spring and Mahogany Leather.
.
.
The Tree Rat has now a special place in the Elephant Skater and it came at the right time, because my grampy had an explosive ice coffee while driving and distributed the whole darned cup everywhere in the car and it started to smell from rotten milk foam. Now we have the smell of scruffy ice coffee in spring and that’s much better! And with this Tree Rat it is like William would sit together with me on the backseat of the Elephant Skater.
.
.
They wrote a wonderful Sweet William card too – yes! Scotties are wonderful – aren’t they?
THANK YOU VERY MUCH WILLIAM AND LEE!
I’m curious what I will get tomorrow!
Now I’m off to supervise mom in the kitchen. She saw the pictures of the SAMMY TEASER in the morning and there was a Ristorante or Pizzaria and now she is inspired to prepare someting from Italy for lunch.
.
.
They have smoked Salmon with musk melon and roasted potatoes with balsamico – fortunately I’ve got chicken with carrots and rice …
.
MAMMA MIA!
.
.
HAVE A TASTY TUESDAY ALL
.
.
.
.
OMG that smoked salmon in the photo is to die for!! Oh and Mom LOVES squirrels!!!
Mom said it was great! I’m not a fan of potatoes an melons. I hope their stomachs are still intact with the mix from turrons and this lunch :o)
Wow a squirrel riding with you. That is just nutty. hahhahha Maybe we should hang a smelly squirrel from Bert’s collar so he smells better.
Blessings,
Goose
It’s a nice scent(said mom) I could send you the detonated ice coffee cup – that’s a cool smell – for a doggy-nose :o)
Wow foodables and a squirrel you are doing well Easy and hmmm lunch looks good. We are having treats and peeps gets a cup of tea for lunch no time to eat. How is your weather. It is hot and humid here? Stay cool and have a terrific Tuesday.
Best wishes Molly
a cup of tea was my mom’s idea for lunch too – before the teaser and the postguy hahaha. It’s a little bit muggy here – but much better than the last days :o)
What lovely things you got Easy! And your lunch looks yummy, my tummy is rumbling now…
My tummy is rumbling too Misaki (as always) but potatoes and melons is more food for a rabbit :o)
Oh you lucky boy getting Turrons from Leo and Doggy!!! I hope your staff didn’t stuff ALL of them down and left at least ONE for you……they sound delish! Speaking of delish, that lunch your Mom made with salmon looks – well – incredible…..and salmon is one of my favorites – can I hop on my hang-glider and come visit REAL quick before your staff eats all of that too?????????
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
Can you imagine that I’ve got NOTHING of this turrons? That’s animal abuse! And on the turrons in their stomach they stacked the salmon and the melon with potatoes. I hope they have a funny night hahaha
Easy, you are such a lucky boy! What lovely presents! 🙂
Love from (slightly envious) Solo and Krissy xx
Sadly the staff ate all the yummy Turrons! How mean! But the squirrel is just for me :o)
You’re so lucky, Easy. That smoked salmon looks so divinely delicious! My tummy is rumbling and I’m drooling all over by looking at the picture; guess it’s my supper time now.
~Eva
It was tasty and the staff ate all this yummy things alone… I’m drooling too, Eva :o) I hope you will get a perfect Princess-Supper.
My word Easy, you really are on a winning streak at the moment (streak being the operative word, as you will insist on running around bottomless 🙂 ).
hahahaha – that was a good one … ah… no a BRILLIANT one! I’m curious what I will get tomorrow :o)
You are a winner on so many levels. It is good you cannot train your staff, because it makes for interesting posts. Keep up the efforts. The world is a better place for your blog posts.
hahaha I’m afraid to train them is a hopeless case – they are ok for me. I can bear it. But that I’ve got nothing of this Turrons – that was really mean – I’m going to remember this :o)
I will try not to wrong you. If I eat all the goodies I will not let you know.
That looks simply devine Easy! I think I need to make a trip overseas to visit you. Just think of how much fun we could get into! Oh, check out my blog in about an hour. I have something there for you my friend. XOXO – Bacon
Oh that would be funny – you could find some truffles here. Piggies are experts! Thanks for the Award Bacon – it was such a wonderful gift for me :o)
Oh you are so welcome my friend. Truffles – mmm – I’ll take the mushrooms or the chocolate – snorts. XOXO – Bacon
Easy those are MARVELOUS pressie packages… You are a really lucky guy… Love that Sammon lunch.
That was really nice from Doggy and William – but sadly they ate all the Turrons and the Salmon – I’ve got nothing! This staff is mean…
OMDs Easy you struck gold yesterday. Congrats on all the goodies and especially the tree rat!!! Sw. William and Lee have a lovely blog and mom loves the bagpipes.
hugs madi your BFFF
Thanks Madi :o) I’m happy to have my own Tree Rat now – and the staff is happy to be overfed :o)
Yeowzers easy! You and the Mom and Dadgot some cool swag for sure we luvluvluv the tree rat. And we are going to check out the Scottie bloggy cuz we don’t know him. And we will dash over now to Sammy’s teaser. Paw. Hugs, Savvy
Isn’t it great to live in blogville ?
Oh my, Sweet William is ending his bloggy! That is very sad. I hope he and his human have lots of friends close by to help them
They hope they are back at the end of the summer. I will cross my paws for William and his Lee :o)
I agree, you are piling up the loot Easy! Hey, did someone say salmon?
Yes! But this humans are greedy and didn’t share all this good things with a poor Weimaraner pup.
Oooh turrons sound great Easy…Momz had to look them up and here they call them nougats so now she knows what they are and says they’re really good…I have balsam scent in my Golden Acorn tree rat so makes my Jeep smell like pine forests 🙂 Sweet William was so kind to send it and I’m so sad he’s not blogging for a while but hope that he and his Lee feel better soon and we can share with them again.
They are really great Gizmo. I like the scent of spring – now we have our own spring in the elephant skater – that’s not bad huh? I hope Lee and William can handle all things and I hope they are back after a while.
So, no Turon left by now eh? the humans scoffed the lot!
I hope they will have a funny night with all this things in their stomachs. I’m totally sulky about this two egoists.
Now you have to get the recipe for tree rat turron.
Oh that would be a great doggy snack – and a world first :o)
Better late than pregnant!
I’m glad you liked it!
They loved it! But now they look like pregnant after this eating orgie :o)
Hellooooo Easy ~ I am glad that tree rat with his acorn made it half way around the globe to find a home with you. Lee says maybe we might be back to blogging late in the year.
Thanks for being my friend
Sweet William The Scot
It’s a cool tree rat – and it swings while driving – it looks like it would nod to me :o) Thank you very much! I hope all things will fall in a row and you will be back later.
Wow, your post is making me hungry!
Nubbin wiggles,
Oskar
Me too Oskar – they gave me nothing of this fabulous Turrons :o)
Oehhh looks tasty, and aren’t parcels the BEST?! It’s like Christmas! All year round!
It is! Parcels are great – now I can understand why my mom loves to shop online hahaha :o)
Very cool gifts and prizes Easy. I have never heard of Turrons before, you’ll have to let us know how they are.
You must try it – they are from heaven. Honestly :o)
Those are some good looking treats
Snorts,
Benny & Lily
They were really good – I hope we had a lot of this sweet sins and could eat it together :o)
Hey Easy!
Wow, those turrons sound delish with a capitol D! Never tried those, but I sure want to. Congrats on the cool acorn dude too. Sw Wm is such a great furiend!
Grr and Woof,
Sarge, COP
That was really nice to send me a tree rat – we haven’t seen this tree rats for years here. Now I’m the only one who has his own – great huh?
You are a wicked lucky winner of prizes, E. You should buy a lottery ticket. You will be a millionaire!
Cupcake, I bought one – and it was just a lemon. (or the lottery-guy is a cheater – yes! that’s the reason)
Congratulations Easy – did you not have one Turron???? Your Mum goes all out for lunch, that looks good. I quite like salmon, I’ll have to have a word with The Help. Is the Elephant Skater a Renault? It looks a little like the Megane that The Help used to have, but hers was cobalt blue.
Peeps and their cars, I don’t get it! I’m not into cars.
What you going to win next I wonder 🙂
I like Salmon too – I must have a kitty between my anchestors LOL. It’s a Opel or Vauxhall Meriva – the color is “metro” – maybe they mixed someting together and called it metro because they had no clue what it should be. Mom always gives failed food-experiments funny names too. The best is: I wasn’t in – not even once hehehe
Great pressies, EAsy. Mom says those turrons sound very tasty. We, on the other hand, LOVE salmon – forget the musk melon:)
Woos – Phantom, Thunder, Ciara, and Lightning
Me too – without the Melon – I could play with this thingy after eating the Salmon. When you get some Turrons in your area – try it – its really a treat from paradise :o)
The Human’s never heard of Turrons before but now she can’t think about anything else. I see a tree rat once in awhile in the tree outside my window, but sadly I can’t really get at him, if you know what I mean and I think you do, ha ha ha!
At least you had a tree rat movie in your windows-tv, Spitty. That’s better than to have our ole neighbor in windows-tv like me hahaha
I wish you were in my Window TV, Easy. You’re pretty fun…but I dunno,,,,you’re kind of, well, big and skeery too. But it would be fun to watch you!
That would be like the comedy-channel hahaha
Delicious treats and a smelly tree rat?!? You are one lucky pup, Easy! I’m sorry you didn’t get any of those tasty salmons though!
Thanks Remy – my staff is mean and greedy. But I will not forget this heinous crime :o)
Yikes Easy, you won the jackpot this week.. Humom had a wonderful birfday but iz going to take your advice..Pop an anadin in the drink 🙂 BOL we has the HOTS today, has you 🙂 xx00xxx
Mollie and Alfie
I’m glad she had a great day – I hope with a truckload of gifts. Today it is dark as in a salamanders ass and no sun and nothing – our weather guy must been on your mom’s birthday party and had too much “fire-water”.
I’m feeling hungry. Very hungry. Ravenously hungry. Special thanks for your mom for NOT taking photos of the turrons themselves! I would’t have survived their view!
Your new car will be a magical place: elephant scent + squirrel scent + rotten milk foam scent + spring scent + Grampy scent + Weim scent … What an orgy of smells!
The Turrons were history faster than they could take a picture – they are greedy like the cookie monster. We have to add the Weim-smell later, because by now I wasn’t inside of this ride – it needs no hurry I think :o)
Well, sweet Easy if you set out to make our mouths water you succeeded. Hugs and nose kisses
hahah – but honestly: they are really from heaven. When you will find them in a store – you should try it :o)
If we ever see them we will for sure try them.
You’re so lucky getting parcels with exciting things inside. The lunch your mum made looks amazing!
Thanks Clowie – it was really a funny day – even when I’ve got nothing of this nice treats :o)
