It's a blustery day here in Chicago- a perfect sort of day to hide out inside the aquarium! Blaise's pick was the submarine exhibit. Mine was the penguin suit. :)
We took the show on the road this morning for a trip downtown. First stop- the library to find more books about our favorite monkey, George. It wasn't the most peaceful visit, but nevertheless Blaise managed to score a "Curious Reader" sticker. As you see from the picture, he takes that designation seriously. My companion let me swing by the grand opening of Anthropologie on State Street- as long he was given Crispix. I obliged. Happy Friday!
We rang in the new year over supper in Chinatown. I don't have any actual pictures of Chinatown, since it felt like -70 degrees that night. I had frog, Tommy had shark fin soup and Blaise ate fried pigeon!
As you can see, Blaise does not always have saintly behavior! Blaise's name, however, comes from a saint whose feast day we observe every February. St. Blaise is known for blessing throats, as he once saved a young boy choking on a fish bone. He also is the patron saint of wild animals. Perhaps he can intercede on behalf of our cat? We expect that our Blaise will have lots of spunk, just like the saint he's named after!
