Notes from a parish cat and his author Julie Mackenzie

My photo
I am Father Tom Fish, esteemed member of the religious team at Temptation of Christ Parish in the novels by author Julie Mackenzie. As to my background, I was invited into the rectory as a stray, laid on the charm, and was invited to stay, even honorarily ordained and no less spiritual than my sidekick Father Will. He dotes on me to high heaven and forgives all of my street cat proclivities, whatever the hell that means.

The Resemblance is Uncanny!

Hi, friends!

We're going to wrap up Lent here pretty soon and welcome Easter! I love this holiday because it involves such a sunny way of looking at things. From the Resurrection to the coming to life of all the plants and flowers and trees and bugs and bees..!! See, I'm happy just mentioning all the things I love.

Now, I couldn't love all those things without remembering my mother. Now, I could have saved this for Mother's Day, but I like her hat so much that I'm calling it an Easter bonnet which I wanted to share much sooner! Please note, if you see nothing else on her headgear, observe the framed photo of moi pinned onto it. I've been told that I resemble her almost to a t. I think they might be right. Take away the eye makeup, the hat with stuff on it and ribbons, and you have me...but, you haven't seen her silhouette which is dainty or been captivated by her fragrance which is Highland Nip Flowers which she loves.

I get all my handsomeness from her 😊

So, Happy Easter everybody and enjoy celebrating happiness!!
