#lady h.n.c. rootbottom
Cran-tastic!
Resident Human: "Today we're going to make some cranberry orange bread."
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "It's a very ladylike and sophisticated holiday bread, don't you think?"
Resident Human: "I suppose..."
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "What matters most is that it's delicious."
Resident Human: "Well, it'll certainly be that."
Resident Human: "Alright, we've got everything need..."
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "The mix smells lovely. Like oranges!"
Resident Human: "That's because there's orange zest in it."
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "Mmmm..."
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "Very nice! But... where's the cranberries?"
Resident Human: "I'm getting to that. Patience is a virtue, after all."
Resident Human: "Ta-da!"
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "Uhm.... what?"
Resident Human: "Those are the cranberries. They come packaged right with the mix."
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "No. Absolutely not. Cranberries do not come from cans."
Resident Human: "Yes, well, your human doesn't have time right now to sit and cut lots of little cranberries in half and simmer them, so we're going with what's in the can."
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: *sigh* "Disappointing. Although... they smell really good... Like cranberry sauce!"
Resident Human: "They are good. They're real cranberries, they've just been preserved."
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "I can even see tiny seeds!"
Resident Human: "Mm-hmm. Trust me, it'll be tasty."
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "That's a lot of cranberries for such a small batch of batter."
Resident Human: "That's because we want it extra fruity, don't we?"
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "Why, yes, I suppose we do."
Resident Human: "There we go. All done."
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "Smells divine!"
Resident Human: "Alright, into the oven!"
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "I'm so excited!"
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "Wow... what a gorgeous bread..."
Resident Human: "Isn't it nice looking?"
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "And it smells even better than it looks!"
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "I think we've done a fine job, indeed."
Resident Human: "Yes, we make great baking buddies."
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "Now for the very most important question of all..."
Resident Human: "Here it comes..."
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: "May we eat it?"
Resident Human: *chuckles* "Of course we may."

Baking With Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom!
Lady Henrietta Nadine Charlotte Rootbottom: “Hello, my little chickadees! Today we’re going to bake a scrumptious carrot cake and cover it with cream cheese frosting. Doesn’t that sound lovely?”
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: “Alright, we’ve got the instructions right here... This shouldn’t be too difficult.”
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: “First we gather all our ingredients and mix up our yummy batter. Careful now, don’t make a mess! We must remain civilized, of course. And then we’re ready to bake!”
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: “Now it’s proper for all self-respecting ladies to have a sensible glass of wine while waiting for the results of their toils. This is really one of the most important parts of the baking process, you know.”
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: “Mm... yes, baking is fun, is it not?”
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: “Look at our beautiful cakes! While they cool, we’ll just go ahead and finish up our wine.”
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: “All ready for icing!”
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: “Mmmm... it’s so creamy, and it smells lovely.”
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: “Our work isn’t done until the entire container of icing has been used up, so don’t hold back!”
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: “Now that’s a perfect piece of carrot cake. Well done! Now comes the best part... eating the results!”

All these lovely ladies can’t wait for the warmer days of Spring and Summer. Today, while it was raining outside, Ashleaf, Kizzle, Fernadette, Lady Rootbottom, Prickles, and Morley put on a little fashion show to cheer themselves up and to prepare for all the upcoming outdoor adventures they plan to have. They brought out their best girly, Spring-tastic, fashion-forward looks with hats, headbands, sunglasses, and bows. Don’t they just look adorable? Who wore it best, do you think? =)

You might not know this about Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom, but she collects Beanie Babies! Specifically the bears, those are her favorite. Here she is with her latest acquisition, which arrived just in time for Halloween. I think it’s hard to tell who’s cuter, the bear or her! =)

Treat Yoself!
Resident Human: “Hey there, ladies! What are you all up to?”
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: “Being terribly bored, love.”
Sunny: “Yeah... there’s nothing to do.”
Vanessa: “No flies to catch either.”
Prickles: “I miss the garden and all the flowers.” *sigh*
Resident Human: “Well what if I said I had some candy for you all? That’ll brighten your day, won’t it?”
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: “Oh, not for me, darling, I’m watching my rootish figure.”
Vanessa: “Not me, I embrace my curves. I’ll have some candy!”
Prickles: “If I get any fatter, my bulb will look super small!”
Sunny: “I got a little pudgy over winter too...”
Resident Human: “Hmm... okay. But... I have little individual, root-sized baggies for you. There are only four candies in each, and I believe they’re only 1.9 calories apiece. Surely you ladies can have 7.6 calories of candy...”
Vanessa: “Aw, they’re so cute!”
Sunny: “I didn’t know Tic-Tacs came in root-sized bags!”
Prickles: “Fresh Mint! My favorite! They taste like marshmallows!”
Lady H.N.C. Rootbottom: “Yes, I think this will do nicely. We can absolutely work this into our diets. Thank you, love!”
Resident Human: “You’re very welcome. Enjoy!
