Cheese Hound!

August 11, 2012 by Jeane George Weigel

Some of you may remember my big boy kitty, Bubba (see previous post Bubby’s Grand Adventure). He’s 25 pounds of pure love and a real character. I, of course, am accustomed to all of my animals’ peccadilloes, but Kim is not. So he notices what slips by me. One of these quirks is Bubba’s intense love of all things dairy—cheese in particular—Parmesan most specifically. Bubby is a very mild-mannered, undemanding cat by nature, asking for very little except some love now and again. But he has sharp Parmesan sensors.

Usually, when we are making dinner, Bubba takes up residence on top of my laptop (it’s warm, you know, and close by). But the minute, I mean the very INSTANT I open a tub of Parmesan, he is up and yowling—LOUDLY—making keen demands! Kim thinks this is so funny that he wants to video it for you all. We haven’t pulled that off yet. We’re usually too focused on getting dinner on the table and getting a dish of Parm to the insistent Bubba. But one of these days, you just never know. Watch for it… Bubby’s dark side, coming soon.

Love to you all,
Jeane

      It really, truly is. I loved my life of complete solitude, too, but I’ll admit it’s very fun to have a buddy to share with–sort of doubles the fun.

About High Road Artist IMG 9461 150x150I am Jeane George Weigel, a working artist living in the mountains of northern New Mexico, and I do not think you and I are so different.

Every single one of us longs to know what we ache for, to “follow our bliss” as Joseph Campbell famously put it. You may find yours as an artist, a writer, or a teacher. But I am convinced we all yearn to live what is in our hearts. Some of us spend a lifetime discovering what that is. Some never find it.

This blog is about a journey of self-discovery, yours and mine. I write about the experience of living an artist’s life and share musings and photos as this living experiment unfolds. It is my hope you’ll join in the conversation by writing to me about your lives and I dearly hope something, here, will inspire you.
