The Real Henry Miller

People are always asking me about who works here at the Mimi Green studio so I am going to give everyone a peek in.

First, I think we should start with the backbone of Mimi Green, the hardest worker around, the real boss, Henry Miller.


 henry, quaker parrot

Sometimes he gets really mad at us if we are talking and messing around.

And he's been known to take out his anger on our thread, machines, and fabric. But we know he always means well.

He's pretty convinced that he is a human, even tries to drink water out of cups ;)  At least he told me that was water in the cup...

I was kind of put off last week when Dan bought himself a desk that practically takes up half of our space, but turns out that it was a great purchase. Henry now spends his days pacing the long desk hollering out commands such as  "Give me a Kiss" or "Come here girls".

Dan got Henry as a birthday present when he was just a little hatchling. (is that what you call a baby parrot? I don't know, but it sounds right!)

He now has a pretty big vocabulary and learns new sounds and words everyday. 

Now, if I could just teach him to say, "Amanda You're Good Enough, You're Smart Enough, and Doggone It, People Like You!" 

"Baby got back" will also do.

I had to show you her face-- isn't she so super cute and furry?? Rossi's momma Jen says she won't sit still long enough to get the hair cut around her eyes.  I love the all the hair! Looks like Rossi just has really big eyebrows ;)

Meet Molly and Olive...

We are finally on the Trixie + Peanut Website! yahoo!Screenshot1

They named the collars the "Harvest Collection" which I think is totally smart!

Next week when we get our new doggie hair bows in -- yes I am totally letting the cat out of the bag early because I am so excited about them! They match our collars -- I am going to style my hair like Zoey's ;)   I'm sure mine won't be as cute though...

Meet Gretel.  She is super fancy in her Tangerine (Harpo) Collar and Lollipop Flower, right?

2browneyedfox.squarespace

Her mamma is Brown Eyed Fox and she was kind enough to write about us on her AWESOME blog this week. If you haven't read her blog, run over there and do so. I love the photos, the design, and the writing.  I am totally addicted and although I wasn't going to ad any more blogs to my Google Reader (I have way too many to read everyday!) I had to add hers.

If you want to look as beautiful as Gretel you can buy the collar here and the flower here ;)
