The Adventures of Katnip: 21
“Sometimes,” I said, “I feel like a monkey in a zoo.”
“We all do,” John Riley assured me.

This is my fourth year to kick off the summer with creativity thanks to 30 Days of Creativity. The first couple of years my creations were random, and I rarely consulted the 30 Days calendar prompts. Last year I used the calendar to have The Ram direct Monster High dolls in various movie scenes.
This year, I hope to use the calendar as I do simultaneous posts here and to my Flickr set, The Adventures of Katnip. In case you’re not aware, Katnip’s adventures began back in February. She couldn’t understand why she kept being tossed from one universe and time to another until she finally got herself a sidekick, John Riley. John Riley figured out that a verbal cue or reference from Katnip is the reason she’s ended up in the worlds of Middle Earth, Wonderland, Jaws, Mad Magazine, and Firefly, among others. She’s been told she’s on a quest: to find Lil Eddy. But she has no idea what or who Lil Eddy is.
Doing The Adventures of Katnip is a fun way to feature some of the books, movies, music, or TV shows that I’ve enjoyed through the years. I also get to photograph toys and other random things I find around The Compound. I hope you’ll enjoy them, too.
As the 30 Days site begins to post other contributors’ submissions, I’ll include links with my posts. Also, if you go to my Flickr set to see the first 20 photos, I’m sorry the site changed their format so that you can’t easily see the accompanying text unless you click on the photo and scroll down. I don’t like Flickr’s redesign at all.

“I see,” he says wiping the initial confusion from his eyes. “Mlle. Renee likes sock monkeys, too. She eats them.”
“But be very careful in case you get caught in a streaming movie with Snidely Spider!” And then he was gone.
Spiders! I have to figure out today’s entry. =)
Sock Monkey the Alter Ego says, “Mmmm, catnip and catsup!”
BW the Sock Monkey, a mellow fellow, although disturbed by the return of Alter Ego, quietly admires Catnip. BW knows her future and John Riley.
I think you should be doing 30 Days of Creativity!
There’s an ad campaign for a tea brand here involving a famous comedian and a sock monkey. He seems to be very popular!
What’s the tea brand?
