Yes, this is a picture of my salt and pepper shakers. Why? Well, this is a topic I haven’t asked about before!
While I don’t have cats, I feel like Chilly, Nico, Cricket, Tuffy, Freddie, Morticia, Bitty, and Bruno have become community cats, and I enjoy hearing about their antics.
Are your salt and pepper shakers traditional, or a little odd like mine? What is the silliest topic you’ve ever brought up?

@Happy2BeMe Oh, I’m sorry if she did that. That’s very disappointing.

Apart from being a cat lover. (thanks to the shout out for Chilly. ) I'm a fan of Sailor Moon. I'm not sure where, but someone showed me some salt and peper shakers that were Luna and Artemis from the series. Luna and Artemis (for those who aren't fans of Sailor Moon) are two talking cat/guardians/guides to the main five characters.

The salt and pepper shakers inside the house are traditional since my relatives and myself buy them from thrift stores.

I love hearing about well loved pets that are cherished. That's the way it should be.
Remember, what topics we ourselves might think are silly, some other people do not--we are all so different. You don't post silly stuff, your discussions seem well thought out to me, Amber.

Those are quite unique. I used to have some pilgrim cat shakers. Only can find the girl now.

I love your salt and pepper shakers. Silliest? I have no idea..alot of them are probably considered "silly" or at least trivial.

I don't use my salt and pepper shakers, though I did bring them from the house. They are just cut glass--nothing whimsical.

Awww, thanks for mentioning Tuffy, he's blushing
I don't think any topics are silly or at least I haven't seen any but I do recall writing about what might have been a billion years ago and suggested that MAYBE the beings on Mars decided to send settlers to Earth in hopes of colonizing it ..... if I'm right it worked, if not Darwin was right.

Our salt and pepper shakers are traditional. My Fads or Fashion? topics are always silly. Have a good week.
