Maybe you are all correct...Edwina just tries to ACT like a dim bulb but is really very conniving -- colluding with squirrels, knife salesmen -- all for the sake of turkey! Probably honed her scamming skills when she was a stray....

And yes Gini...the knives are Cutco $$$. Hope they are worth it. I had told my husband all I wanted for my birthday was good knives. Wait a minute ...so why did I buy them instead of him?????

Speaking of sassy...this morning I shooed her off one end of the sofa on the screen porch...time to go in. She "ne alp, ne alp" and jump back up on the other end and curled into a tight ball!
