    There's a place called The Duke of Perth, just west of Wrigley Field, and the Cubs' caterer will work with them to have haggis in the reserved suite at the ballpark for our kitties I believe U.S. Cellular Field uses the same caterer, so I would think they can deliver to the kitties' sky box there as well.

    By the way, the Cubs' front office has also extended an invitation to our pipers and dancers for both the National Anthem and the 7th Inning Stretch.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    Groucho called a short while ago. The Catmobile expects to arrive in Chicago sometime this afternoon. After they meet up with a few more kitty friends the group will go for some Chicago pizza and follow that up with Eli's cheesecake. Tomorrow the ladies are going shopping while the guys sit back and relax as the bagpipers practice "Take Me Out To The Ballgame". The Cubs have invited them to come for a tour of the stadium before the game. Groucho was thrilled when I told him they will have haggis at their skybox. I heard a loud cheer when he told the others.

    I got a call from the Duke of Perth confirming the haggis arrangements. It's a 1:20 start so I requested 10:15 AM delivery. That way the haggis will be there while the pipers and dancers are warming up. Wrigley Field's catering company is giving some thought to adding haggis and other Scottish foods to the current ball park menus

    Hi Meowm
    The Cell skybox is very nice!

    Got an e-mail from Groucho:

    Hi Meowmie and Soncat, We're having so much fun here in Chicago. The ball game was very exciting but no fly balls came our way. When we got to our skybox a table was filled with haggis, shortbread, crab legs, shrimp, ribs, Chicago Pizza, and hot dogs. Everything was soooo yummy. Tomorrow the Cubs invited us to come out early, they're going to let us practice with them and run around all the bases. We can even chase after the baseballs during batting practice. Cassie is taking us sightseeing so I have to go. See you whenever.

    Purrs and kisses,
    Your Groucho

    I just got a voicemail from the boys: Bagpipes playing "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" along with two kitty voices trying to sing(?) along.
    Proud to be a crazy cat lady!

    I have the feeling there were two 'BFFF's' involved there!

    Oh! That's what it is! I heard a voice mail from Sophie and I heard something like...

    "Take me out
    To the ball game
    Take me out
    With the crowd..."

    Well, it's good to know all the kids are having fun while I work... (sigh)
