Is it a polecat of some sort? Are you going to get one?...

Cheryl said...

Is it the infamous Montreal Bankrobber Ferret, discovered hiding out in a bundle of snakebeans early yesterday?

OK, you're scaring me, BB. I think it's a ferret of some kind, but...why? (And is it even alive?)

I'm just hoping it has nothing to do with cooking! :-b

rosa - i think i'll pass on the idea of owning one of these!! not a pole cat though i'm sure some would consider it as one!! :) good guess.

ostara - LOL! you wouldn't be too far off with its connection to snakebeans. i'm sure s/he likes them :D among other things. but no, this little one didn't come with the bundle!

LOL @ emily! - oh, it's very alive. at least, in this picture. it is kind of scary looking, especially with its mouth open :O

you could say it's a very important kritter in the culinary world and an important animal in YOUR world, ms. devoto ;b

i believe it went through your garbage and is trying to digest (probably the sweet potatoes patties did it)

MY world? Do you mean the US, DC, or public health? Put us out of our misery, please please? ;-)

Oh, that's my cat Izzie when the moon is full. See the droplets of blood on the corners of its mouth? That's a dead give away that its her. :))

hey anonymous reader now turned commentor! - welcome :)) glad you are enjoying what i am posting.

scary unidentified animal on even more scary unidentified flashy background is right! LOL. believe it or not......you're partly right about the sun/heat part. as for the sweet potatoes, you may be right on that count, too :P looks like they may have killed him from the expression on his face.

thanks for your comment and visits. hope to "hear" from you again ;-]

hey em - it would be the latter, as in profession. the plot thickens, hehe.

answer coming soon!! keep checking. (have to write up the answer!)

beenzzz - HA! izzie is the devil, huh?

awww, burekaboy...why is that on your food blog? looks like a stunned raccoon to me...and I mean, stunned in the most *newfie* sense as possible.

-Trupti

hi trupti - you'll soon see why!! this stunned animal a la newfie has a little important job to perform :-b

Pamela said...

It's a baby raccoon which you have hired to pose in your cooking photos like the little monkey. His first job will be to make the Japanese peas you were tellen us about but never made! Or maybe he's gunna eat those green ropes you bought the other day.

pammie - awww, poor little guy, everyone figures he's a raccoonlet. i think he's prolly swinging from the green ropes as i write :D

don't you worry about the wasabi peas, they're in the plans. haven't forgotten about it.

Hey BB,
That looks like a bandicoot...
Am I right, huh? huh? huh?
I hope you aren't suffering too much from the cold.

I think this is an animal that got inside your kitchen, then you discovered it and you had a gun at your hand, the animal saw you and is scared to death begging for mercy hahaha. It seems to be expresing please BB!! pleaseee!! let me eat the crumbs I find on the floor but don't kill me!!. Even his belly looks full and its rubbing it.
