Cat on a Tole Tray for The Color Carnival

I wanted to share a vintage tole tray for dear Martha@Menagerie's Color Carnival, but my cat, Abigail had other plans.
There she goes, she rolled a little out of the way to show you the pretty painted flowers.
Oh, to be a cat, where laying around is an art form.

I won't be laying around this weekend though. I'm off to see Chinese Acrobats perform tonight after work, then tomorrow, cleaning out some garage cabinets, (Le Sigh), and chaperoning the High School Winter Formal. (I am bringing ear plugs and a book for the dance, and no, as a Freshman, our son is Not Attending.)

I wish you a Colorful week whether you are laying about or on the go, ear plugs not included.
What are you up to this weekend? Thank you so much.

Abigail just doesn't realize that it's the color carnival...not the black and white carnival!

I just have many errands to run this weekend...nothing as exciting as a Winter Formal!

Love the tray...

Nice of Abigail to eventually oblige.

On tap for us is Dinky Dunkers (basketball), a yoga class, and a birthday party.

Nothing compares to a high school dance, though!
