As Christmas is over, our many heat activated air sprayers have come in handy. They have kept them off the bulk of the Lego, including my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/?p=6749\">Lego Hogwarts<\/a> and Chris&#8217;s Lego city, while still letting the cats hang out in places they like that are otherwise fine. For instance, they really love the office window overlooking the pool an some trees. They can also just about perch on the desk chairs:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-18-15.52.00-e1516906629516.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-7616\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-18-15.52.00-e1516906629516-300x255.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-18-15.52.00-e1516906629516-300x255.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-18-15.52.00-e1516906629516-768x654.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-18-15.52.00-e1516906629516-1024x872.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nWe have learned a bit more about their tastes in food. Zosia like some salad, in particular, spinach and Trader Joe&#8217;s microgreens, which I was not expecting. Kasia, less surprisingly, adores yogurt. Zosia likes it too, but Kasia goes completely nuts for it. They still both wake out of a sound slumber at the scent of cold turkey.<\/p>\n<p>On a totally un-kitten related food note, Chris managed to successfully make a Chicago style Lou Malnati&#8217;s clone:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-13-18.05.53-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-7614\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-13-18.05.53-1-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-13-18.05.53-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-13-18.05.53-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-13-18.05.53-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>January has also been an ace month for sunsets and sunrises:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-15-07.23.57.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-7615\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-15-07.23.57-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-15-07.23.57-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-15-07.23.57-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hijenx.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/2018-01-15-07.23.57-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the video:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_95682\"  width=\"700\" height=\"394\"  data-origwidth=\"700\" data-origheight=\"394\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/E4ivCffS9K4?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;modestbranding=0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The kittens have grown so much just in the last month.
