Monday Bunday



Here is Amelia in our newest structure known as The Buddha Boudoir. It has since been changed slightly so that the laundry basket cannot entrap the rabbit within.


When it came to choosing who, or rather as my departed mother would correct one to say, to whom to present the give-away print of
Amelia in Her Dream, first and foremost we wanted to be fair. But what is fair? An On-Line dictionary says that fair is "free from favoritism or self interest or bias or deception; conforming with established rules or standards." I didn't establish any rules or standard except no tricks. Now if I did the random number generator, that could be thought of as fair, if you look at it in a vacuum, that is to say all entrants being equal. But often in sports for instance there is the use of handicaps to make things fair. So what if I only considered the people how didn't have one of my prints already, would that be more fair? But what if there was someone who had had a bad day and needed a perk would it be more fair to give them an advantage because they had had some undeserved bad luck?


The space between, there is none.

Luck, Fate and Karma are tricky, why do things happen? sometimes it is quite obvious. For instance did you know I was the cause of my Xhubs hernia? Yes, I did this by serving the Chinese take-out while it was still hot. You see if moving a heavy and extensive record collection and you ask people to help you and you reward these hard workers with nice, nice Chinese Take-out from "the really good place down the street" and if your wife stupidly serves the food, as mentioned before, while it is still hot then the helpers will stop working and you will be carrying the records all by yourself and you will get a hernia. It is her fault for insisting on this adherence to the code of good hosting, not yours for not realizing limitations and common sense. This would be an example of cause and effect. It is also called a red flag, but let's not get into that.

Theme: white toes

The point is, and you've been wondering what it is, I'm sure, is that one of our Bunny Blogger friends has suffered the loss of a bun: Skittles. Small and densely packed with personality Skittles passed on Saturday. So in all fairness we give away the Amelia print to Skittles' family, though it can hardly make up for the loss, it is certainly something to do. Sometimes you just have to do something.

Hug your bunnies and your loved ones of whatever species
and have a great Summer week.

Monday Bunday




As you can see I am under close scrutinity unless they are sleeping or eating.


As you can see Tyler likes to play "Big Bunner Is Watching You", even though he is not so very big.


As you can see they are in charge of everything.
Here Amelia closely examines the newest print, Amelia In Her Dream, for defects and finds a few. It is bigger than I usually work, the paper size is 9.5 by 11 inches and I had trouble controlling it when it was damp, as it has to be for this sort of printing. There are some smudges and inky kisses on many of the prints. There are some that are fairly decent and I put them up for sale in my Etsy shop. $5 from the sale of this print will be donated to our local rabbit rescue organization, Rabbit Haven.


Here is one that really seemed to have too many smudges to sell, but is pretty anyway. If you would like to win it you can enter the drawing by writing the following sentence in the comments "Rabbits Rule The World". A winner will be announced next Bunday, no tricks this time.
