my name is tom. I don’t like to pose for pictures. It is beneath me.
Kitterpants schmitterpants!
Moonstruck at midnight…over bergen. Swooning here at our dining room table till the wee hours of the morning.
a few delectable treats we’ve been devouring…
Everything tastes in Norway.
my name is Gunnar. I catch my own fishes from the cold north sea.
I bite.
these are my fighter paws.
the back kicker feet. ( Shortly after this pic he leaped to the ground and ran to kick the arse of another cat. I broke them up.)
hewwo. I am a nice girl catter puss. Fighting! Hmmmph… It’s so uncivilized.
beef, lamb, chicken. I’m convinced the Norwegians can make anything taste delicious. Carol is doing a post on a crazy good tapas place we went to last night. Mmmmmmm. That was a thoroughly delectable experience… Go to tall tales from Kansas to see. (can’t link from iPad)
Extremely savory. Looks like meat and potatoes. Tastes like heaven.

Oh Tom, I’ve been on the receiving end of that disdain before. I so want to snuggle him because–and I may be biased–ginger kitties are best. Continued happy travels, Mary Ann & Carol!
Kris says
Love it! Love it! You photos are just juicy and delicious. And I love seeing more photos of you. That grin kills me. Just adorable.
Domenico says
They fed their felines pretty good over there. Speaking of food, after the meat and potatoes picture what is the following one? I see some red onion and red bell pepper, potatoes, and some kind of meat, but this inquiring mind would like to know what kind of sauce, and what is the fluffy white stuff?
Domenico says
Missy- I will say a little prayer for your mum.

Fat Boy kept knockin at the door, so I had to beam him up through my printer. Forever shall he keep the bike seat warm. Happy Fourth! Best 4th I ever had was in France on Bastille Day…July 14. What do they celebrate in Norway? Any costumes involved? Drooling for some pics of costumed Norwegians. Gotta be a festival around somewheres.
Judy H. says
Lots of kitties! Food and moon = fabulous (the moon here in KC was just as fabulous-huge and full and golden!)

Greetings Moss Cottage, Wow Norway is one beautiful place those flowers ect and so clean:-) The food looks wonderful could do with a plate of that as I write:-) The kitties there are no words except animals from all over the world bring such joy:-)
Looks like you girls are having a blast there and can’t wait to see your drawing journal pages I’m learning myself to sketch exciting isn’t it:-)
Have a great day,
Linda

Looks so yummy! I think if I ever went anywhere with you and your sister I would gain at least 5 pounds! But oh what fun you are having!

How DO you manage to find at least one cat everywhere you go? I love catter puss, I’m pretty sure I would love those scrumptious looking potatoes, and I know for a FACT that we need more paper.
Yes, I’m aware that we’ve gone shopping for it more than once. But you know how it’ll be once we’re on the tarmac and I start imagining all the beautiful papers we may have left behind and then I get all maudlin and spend the whole ride back to the U.S. heaving great sighs of angst and regret. And nobody wants THAT. So, think about it, ‘kay? (I know there’s room in your luggage, ’cause I gave those reindeer boots to a homeless guy when you were looking the other way.)
Terry Butler says
I am having such a good time on our trip!
Violet Cadburry says
Can’t you pack up Fat Boy Harley in your suitcase and bring him back? Lovely photos. Cats and Food, it doesn’t get any better than that.
Chelsy says
Oh, Tom, you’re lucky there’s an ocean between us because I just want to squish your fat furry body in an invasive embrace!
And, um, YUMM!!!
PJ says
FANTASTIC! the views, the designs, the cats, the food…ahhhh keep it comin’
Brian Kasstle says
Here’s hoping surly Norwegian cats don’t bite you! Have you found your Thor yet?
“Did you hear about Mary Ann, she met her Thor and lives in Norway now.”
Jane Bumar says
So I’m a dachshunds person, and whenever I see them on my travels, I freak out, sprawl on the ground (they hang low), take improper amounts of photos, make squealing sounds in dolphin-like registers, and generally make a fool of myself. I am glad to see that you have maintained far more propriety. Fighter paws indeed! Wonderful :-))

everyday.kindest regards,missy from the bayou
Fawn says
I am really enjoying your photos and commentary. Thanks so much for sharing your trip with us!
Coral says
How adorable – feline company, even in Norway. I think my hubby would ban me from going – he would be worried I would want to bring them all back home 🙂 Hope you are having an amazing time and it doesn’t go by too quickly.
