Our teacher is irritated wiff us for making jokes in class, but we can’t help it…

Today we are back in school learning fings, and reading books.  We got to pick our books, and I thought dis one was a cookbook because ob all the begetables on the cober, but it isn’t.  It’s pretty good book so far, it’s a bunch ob quotes about friends.  Like dis one:

“A treasured friend will keep you company when you’re feeling lonely or blue. They will listen to your secrets and tell you some too! A treasured friend is always up for an adventure together!”

I won’t spoil the rest ob it for you in case you read it some day.

The Back to School Ratty Box is here, just in time for our trabels to be ober (just for now) and go back to school! Dis big hide is great, it habs stars all ober it so it’s like we are in space. And there are two smaller hides too…and nanner chips..and a play toy! Fanks The Ratty Box for welcoming us back to school!

Hi, it’s Fish.

We are finishing up dis round ob trabel wiff a full day tour around our home state, that we hab license for now.  They say Hollywood is a place ob dreams, we didn’t find dat to be the case exactly, but it was fun!  I put my hands in all the prints in front ob the Chinese Theater, but those people were giants!  Mine were way too small to fit.  I fell into John Waynes footprint. Barry helped me get out – it’s actually kind ob dangerous here for us, so we went down Hollywood Blvd and caught a show at the Pantages theater, because Barry habs a growing interest in music.

Baxter and Waffles met us after they stopped at the beach and then picked up Randy’s donuts for eberybody. OMG!  Hab you tried a Randy’s donut?!?  It’s amazing!

We are all at Dismeyland now.  We can’t go on any rides because we are too short, but we can ride the train, and we are watching the parades and the people.

Fank you Terri Skeoch for dis amazing Internashunal Califorbia bizness.  Hurry and you can join us here for the fireworks! Please bring a step stool.  I could use one.


It’s me, Waffles!  Our trabbeling continues, as we go straight up from Iowa to mom’s home state ob Minnesota – so we know all the good places to go.  Minneapolis is called the mini-apple, but they hab a statue ob a cherry on a spoon. It kind ob looks like an apple, it’s red and habs a stem, but somehow eben though apples and cherries hab dat in common, they look alot different, I guess it’s the length ob the stem the ones on cherries are so much longer…but not really I guess dat wasn’t the point anyway. It’s art.  But it’s pretty cool and it’s berry big!

We went to the Mall ob America next and the littles rode on all the rides, Fish really enjoyed the big rollercoaster and he almost flew out ob his seat a couple times, luckily he was hanging on tight.

Baxter is standing in front ob Old Main on the Macalester College campus in St. Paul, where our grandma taught for ober 25 years and mom went for her first year ob college, it’s a beautiful campus. If we weren’t going to Marty’s School ob Bizness, maybe we would go here. Although according to the book ob SSR (school snack ratings) MSOB habs the best snacks by a long shot.

We finished our bisit wiff a trip to downtown Minneapolis to see a concert at First Abenue, the house dat Prince built.  It was pretty cool, the band was a tribute band to Marty and the Corms – they rocked!

Fank you Shannon Belille for the home town Internashunal Bizness – it was nice to rock wiff you at First Abe!!


We are touring the midwest and today we are in Iowa!

Dis is the state where our moms parents are from. It’s beautiful here, and they grow corm. So much corm, it’s amazing – and so delicious fresh from the farms. First we bisited the Canteem Lunch in Alley in Ottumwa, a landmark restaurant our grandma used to go to when she was a little girl. They hab a horseshoe counter, and they serbe loose meats sandwiches. You might hab heard about loose meat sandwiches from Roseanne. When she married Tom Arnold (Tom libed wiff our uncle Tom Quinn Sr. for a while when he was in high school) who is also from Ottumwa, they opened a restaurant in Eldon IA for those too – it was called Roseanne & Tom’s Big Food Diner. They featured copycat loose meat sandwiches but the Canteen is the best eber since 1927.  Tell us if you hab been there!

After lunch we went to Muscatime, known as the Pearl Button Capital ob the World.  We caught the end ob a parade wiff a giant paper mache Mark Twain. You neber know what you are going to find in Iowa, but it’s always fun.  Fank you so much for bizness Birgina Rud – we are in Muscatime now, the Mark Twain parade is ober, so come find us downtown and we can hab dinner wiff you!




Good morning from Chicago!

We are in the Land ob Lincoln for Internashunal Bizness.  Lincoln was a friend ob George Jefferson. He liked to wear a big hat and he is on our monies!  But he’s not wearing his hat in the picture on the monies tho.  We might go bisit his house later, but we are habbing fun in the city now.  It’s a beautiful day and there is so much to see. We all went to the Bean fing, and they say if you beliebe, you can see King Bean in there – we all saw him, but we see him on Hype alot too.

We just watched Ferris Beullers Day Off, and when he took the day off he and Sloan and Cameron went all ober Chicago, so we tried to go to some ob the places they went, but we didn’t see a parade, and I fink Abe Froman must be out ob bizness, because we coudn’t find the Sausage King ob Chicago, but we we did go to Portillos.

Fank you so much for gibbing us the bizness Scotia Draben!






We hab some trabeling to do, so we showed Teddy how to take care ob Gary.  He takes good care ob us, so I fink he can do it.  If you see us out on the road, be sure to say ‘hey’!
