Last night, as Blackie was in the kitchen making a snack, a call came in from his Aunt Carol. She wanted to see if he could whip up a Charlotte Russe for her brother-in-law Richard, as he’s having a birthday today.
Absolutely!
If you haven’t had one, a Charlotte Russe is a lovely dessert made in a mold, with Bavarian cream and ladyfingers. Some people add whipped cream, and some add a few berries. (I say “yes” to both: Much more fun to draw!)
This time, Blackie added a few new touches—a mouse, some flower petals, candles….and a llama. (That’s Richard’s cat Ellie and dog Sophie high-fiving their approval.)
Dear Richard, have a wonderful birthday! Best wishes from Carol & all of us here at The Daily Cat Doodle, too.
(Happy Sunday, Everyone!)
Most beautiful birthday picture ever!!! Thank you, Jean and Blackie. Tastiest charlotte russe I’ve never eaten. <3
So glad you enjoyed it, Carol! Llamas just make everything better, don’t they? 🙂
Wow Jean, what a birthday present from you and Blackie! I’ve never received such an appealing charlotte russe, and I am an expert on this dessert. Thank you so much! I’m looking forward to future cat doodles.
I’m so glad you liked it, Richard — I hope you had a wonderful birthday!
I’m so glad he got such a wonderful present from SOMEBODY, since he hasn’t gotten ANYTHING from his mom yet.
I loved the card!
Margaret, that made me smile—thanks so much. Meanwhile, Carol tells me you’re a Pisces as well? I should have known. It’s a very special sign! 🙂
