Picnic
Picnic
Harar is pretty far south. During the summer, it gets quite warm and humid. Anyone who knows cats knows they like it hot. But, after a while, even the hardiest feline wants a break from hot, humid conditions. The capital, Lake Felis, is located in the subtropical zone. Its ruler, Baron Nik, often treks to the mountains to get some relief from the heat. So does Harar’s ruler, Queen Vera. Vera has selected a lovely hilltop site in the southern foothills of the Schulmappalachian Mountains for her summer residence. The Harar court is itinerant and will follow the queen wherever she goes. Over the course of the year she may be found ruling from Lake Felis, The Wirdleplex, the Feline Quarter of Oak Ridge or her new summer residence, Clawmoral Castle.
Today, the Queen and Baron Nik are hosting a picnic. Countess Katherine II is coming as well. And, lucky us – we’re invited too! And, the whole village of Port Isabella is coming. Residents are bringing their best in their picnic baskets to make this the fanciest of fancy feasts. The local farmers are harvesting herbs and spices to season their game and preparing saucers of the finest milk to the picnic. Let’s check on their progress.
Hunters are out catching fresh game
Today’s catch includes chipmunks, squirrels, pigeons and a stray zebra
Farmer John is growing prized Harar catnip to make into tea
Down the by the BFA Office silver vine is being harvested
You need just the right mix of veggies to make chipmunk primavera
There is some corn growing, but I’m not sure why. After all, you don’t see many cats eating corn on the cob…
Down at the dairy barn there’s plenty of milk for saucers. Some is being made into salmon or tuna flavored ice cream for dessert. Om nom nom!
Time to head up the path to the castle!
Here’s Clawmoral
There’s lots of great spaces on the grounds to set up a picnic. Time to eat!
