I can’t believe I missed the obvious caption yesterday about Chaos having his foot in his mouth (which he did)… Obviously, it’s been a long week and my captioning brain is not up to snuff. And, since I won another contest yesterday (a drawing for a $15 gift card to a LYS from everyone who sent cage liners or squares to Chris of Chris Knits for her local Humane Society) (ok, ok, technically Chaos won, but he doesn’t get out much), I’m feeling the urge to spread a little contest fun myself.
The prize will be a 480-yard ball of Brooklyn Handspun superwash sock yarn, color Carnival. This colorway will cover all of your Project Spectrum knitting needs up until August (neutrals). (Tail not not included.) If a non-knitter wins, I’ll send that person something other than yarn and select a second winner.
The contest is to leave a comment with a caption for the picture below. Caption comments made before 6 pm Central Daylight Time on Monday, May 22 (my six-month blogiversary!), will be numbered and I’ll use a random number generator to pick a caption. Please note that the mouse in the picture isn’t SRM, but is the wonderful catnip mouse that Elizagrrl knit for Chaos.Have fun! Be creative!
Hmmm… which do I prefer… catnip or tuna? Tuna or catnip? Tuna, definitely tuna… but I’d better try this again… just to be sure…
Ah, my lovely catnip mouse, you are not my beloved SRM, but you will do…..for now!
Oh yeah–Happy Six-month blogiversary! Just realized (went back and checked my archives) that I missed mine on April 14th!
Mouse tails are tasty, but it’s missing that extra sparly spice…
Tastes great AND less filling!
Eh, tastes like chicken
Yum, cherry!
“Whadda ya’ mean it’s not edible?!?!”
“Excuuuse me! We’re having a private discussion here!”
Come with me, little mouse. You’ll be safe. Slurp.
“Hey! … Do I disturb you when you’re eating?!”
See I so can touch the tip of my nose with my tongue! It’s not my fault you lost the bet…..

“So this is how I do a Picasso?”
Let’s see… Has the halo and accompanying mouth fuzz of mohair… Yes, it’s definitely perhaps mohair, angora gets caught in my teeth… Oh, and the lovely animal scent means shetland… Very nice bouquet, almost oaky with a hint of alpaca that’s been fed special hay… I’d say it’s vintage couple months ago… Good served with kibble and a side of spring water.
what’s red ad white and black all over?
mmmm i love the taste of mohair in the morning.
“Another one gone, and another one gone, and another mouse bites the dust”
you say there’s something on my nose?
“Tastes great!….nope…Less filling!…nope…Tastes great!…nope…”
This catnip is making me thirsty!
Fuzzy red mice. They’re not just for breakfast anymore.
Doh! Chaos falls for the “There’s something on your nose” trick, thus enabling the red catnip mouse to scurry away and live yet another day.
“Hmmmm, if only this were a real mouse.”
The small amount of mohair in Lamb’s Pride allows the true aroma of catnip to really bloom. *mmm*
Another cat lesson in weight loss: “taste and savor” your food and you fill up faster!
“What do you mean, there’s a piece of ham on my nose. That’s my tongue you stupid mouse. You are so going to get it!”
Fuzzy mousey with a tail. Did SRM set you up to this? I’ll get you my pretty SRM, but first I.must.resist.this.little.mouse.. arrrggh….catnip, no fair!
“Smack, smack. Tastes like chicken!”
Slurp!
I vant to suck your stuffing…ha ha ha ha…
come with me my tasty friend muhahahh
No, I am not sharing.
in a whispered voice . .. Here we see Chaos in his natural habitat, and he’s succeeded in capturing his elusive prey, the red knit mouse. Watch as he licks his chops in anticipation . . .
“This would go well with some fava beans and a nice Chianti.”
Mmmm… Mouse, the other red meat.
in a french accent: oh mon cheri, vee are all alone…SRM has left me, you must be my new luv-ar. oh you smell so taste-y. I must have you! [smothers mouse in kisses] For you are the only for me bay-bee. ooh la la
“I wonder what my tongue smells like…”
“If you’re happy and you know it lick your nose!”
“Damn spring allergies, my nose is running. Where’s the tissue? Hmm… oh hell, I’ll just use my tongue.”
“Okay, little catnip mouse…you can wiggle your ears, but can you touch your nose with your tongue?”
Red Mouse: Mais non! It is pronounced le petit souris rouge. R-r-r-r-rouge. You must roll your ‘r’ mon ami.
Chaos: Le petit souris phttbt! No.. that’s not it either…
Mmmmm..Catnip mouse. It’s cocktail, I mean mousetail time at chaos’s house!!
You put your tongue in, you put your tongue out, you put your tongue in and you wiggle it all about. You do the Chaos-pokey and you eat your mouse right up. That’s what it’s all about!
“Come to me my leetle dahling. Let me lick your wee sparkly hairs and savor your catnippy aroma.”
“Deb will never win as long as I eat the caption entry she sent. Munch. Munch.”
“Just wait till she gets this camera out of my face. Then, you’re done little mouse!”
(mouse talking) You’ve got some catnip on your nose, ya junkie! … a little to the left. Nope… keep going, farther, farther….. Almost got it…
(Chaos thinking) He better not be messing with me….
“Hmmm…. SNLGM left a funny taste in my mouth, maybe Wonderful Red Mouse can take care of that. I wonder if it tastes like licorice?”
Happy six month blogiversary!
“Oh, yuck! This isn’t SRM! Now I have to get this awful taste out of my mouth!”
Mmmm, Kentucky-Fried Mouse… it’s nostril-lickn’ good!
