Me, is it me? No Delia, your birthday is in July.
Oh but I want it to be my birthday so I can be hugged and kissed. It doesn't have to be your birthday Delia for you to be hugged and kissed. Merlin is having a 24/7 job of it allready. See?

Errrrr, Merlin, wake up!

We don't need no birthday, we have something much better and we have it every day of the year!
Is it my birthday Mum? No Pippa, yours is in June.
Oh, does that mean that I won't get anything extra specially nice to eat? Like a saucer of cream or something? Pippa, you're on a diet!
Bummer!
I know who it is, it's me!!! No Vita, your birthday is in November.
Oh but that was ages ago, please let me have it again today. Aren't I cute, come on, let it be me? Yes, you are very cute but today it is somebody elses birthday.
But whose is it then?
Is it Mac's? No, I haven't got a clue when Macavity's birthday is, as he is a stray cat.
Surprise's? No she is a foundling and we are not exactly sure when she was born.
Kadootje's? Kadootje is a foundling too, remember, I found her on my birthday in 2005 under the walnut tree in the garden. We're not sure when her birthday is either.
Is it Dolly's? No she had hers last October.
It must be me then, I'm the only one left. It can't be you Yolanda, you had yours last November. Nice try Willow, but it isn't yours either.
Oh, whose is it then? We give up!![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8BzohpMV9c3jJZ4I0GAScoOKE6FCPvS023gDlwleGtUHwpGHDV_ukaFM04kxmurH02j0WMnZyCx85E5WDjdx7P-gMVIrlHJI83GndoTJYV4bh7i3KqOkQTov4LbzvyF63c4Cj9RVwZMk/s400/binnen18.jpg)
It's Bliss, my blog, it is one year old today! Woohoo!
What! Your blog? Is that what all this fuss is about? A stupid blog? Good grief woman, get a life!But, but, there will be champagne!

Congratulations on a year blogging yolanda! May you keep on blogging for many more. :-)
Congratulations Yolanda! Keep up the great work :o)
Bravo for a year of Bliss, Yolanda! The catchildren and I wish you many more years of blogging Bliss (and we're sorry to the Bliss Team that they aren't having a birthday today too, but maybe they can have a few extra hugs and kisses and cream?)
And I keep meaning to ask; do they speak English, Dutch, or both? I used to have a friend with a bilingual cat, Smokey, who spoke both English and German. Katrine spoke to her in both languages, but I found she responded best in German (I learned a couple of phrases). And any cat will respond to Gaelic, I've found! No, I am not a speaker, just a learner.
HERZLICHEN GLÜCKWUNSCH, Blog von Yolanda! Was wäre die Blogwelt ohne den Bliss-Blog? Ein ganzes Stück ärmer. Es hat immer Spaß gemacht, hier her zu kommen um zu sehen, was es Neues gibt im Garten und vom Bliss-Team.
Gern stoße ich mit an. Prost auf viele neue und interessante Posts.
Liebe Grüße, Birgit
Happy Blogversary! I'll drink some champagne in honor of the occasion ;-) (or maybe tea, it's a bit early here yet)
Happy Birthday Bliss!!! May you have many more. The Bliss Team must be gracious because without the Bliss Blog we wouldn't have had the pleasure of meeting them.
I say Cream, errr champaign all around...
That is most exciting, Yolanda Elizabet. Lytton and I send our best wishes for another successful and fun year of blogging!
I think the Bliss team all deserve special cuddles and treats today because they have certainly been a wonderful part of your blog, Yolanda Elizabet!
I'll raise a toast to you!
Wat een schatjes van katjes en zooo romantisch....;-)))
Van harte gefeliciteerd met je bloemrijke Bliss-blog...en nog vele jaren...;-))
Ik heb al op je geproost...;-) zie mijn blog..;-)))
Happy Birthday, Bliss. I'm so glad you started your blog a year ago today, it has certainly brought additional bliss to my life.
Haha, wat heb je er een leuke log van gemaakt! Leuk, al die kattige gezichtjes, gezellige boel hoor!
Enne, van harte met je blogverjaardag natuurlijk!!
Congratulations and many happy returns to Bliss blog! Looking forward to reading your posts also in future! Of course, I'll also link you! Have a wonderful and joyful (champagne) day!!
Happy Blogday! What a lovely entry.
I'm about to celebrate three years blogging, but with various blogs and sites.
Hazel and Kitty send their best purrs to the entire Bliss team! your writing and photos are something that always bring a smile and a chuckle, with stunning gardens and sweeter that pie felines. Thanks and congrats!

Okay, how on earth you managed not to hug and kiss those darling fuzzy faces is beyond me! Happy birthday to Bliss Blog!
So tell me, do the strays not ever get birthday hugs and kisses?
Happy birthday to Bliss! You've done some major redesign lately, haven't you? It looks great, though I'm still trying to get used to your blog not being pink!
Happy Blogiversary, Bliss and Team! Without each and every one of you, it just wouldn't be the same, so hugs all around! The gang here at Our Little Acre send best wishes and especially Jilly. She's certain she is the American cousin of the Ruskies there. She thinks she's special. Well, she is and they are, don't we know? ;-) Well anyway, here's to you!
Ohho, nou ben ik een dag te laat! Maar even welgemeend, gefeliciteerd Blissblog!
Wat een heerlijk kattenlog heb je ervan gemaakt, ik heb genoten.
Ach, beter laat dan nooit. . .
Gefeliciteerd!!
Ik dacht eigenlijk dat je al járen blogde, niet dus, hartstikke vers!
Leuk om even al je katjes voorbij te zien komen trouwens, lekker stel!
Mmmm, mag ik even mijn neus in jouw seringen komen duwen, oh was het maar weer zover dat ze buiten bloeien!
prettig weekend Elizabet,
knuf voor je katjes!

Yes, we received over 10" of snow during the last 24 hours. Much needed moisture for our gardens, forest and lakes.
OT Daar ben ik nog even,
@ Zo'n Kerria lijkt mij ook wel wat, die heb ik nog niet.
Het is wel een "woekeraar" maar o zo mooi!
HAPPY BLOGIVERSARY!! Yolanda this was so much fun viewing your Bliss team!
The one of the two hugging should be your Valentine Day post for sure!!!
