Spitty's human and my Mom made a bet. The loser had to buy the winner a special surprise that was tied to their "home" city.
Much to our dismay and embarrassment, the Tigers were swept like yesterday's litter and the San Francisco Giants won the World Series. Thanks to Spitty's Mom for forcing us to relive the debacle by blogging about it...AGAIN MOL.
In an attempt to not be a sore loser, which we all know that Mom really IS, Mom sent Spitty's human a delectable treat from one of Detroit's finest, Sanders Fine Chocolates! Mom sent the :
TOPPING AND TORTIE GIFT BAG

Oh and noooo...the gift bag didn't contain a "Tortie" in the sense that WE kitties know "TORTIES"! There was NO cat in the bag! Mom sent the peanut, chocolate and caramel delight that we all know and love, along with a jar of Sanders famous Milk Chocolate Hot Fudge!
Mom and I were thrilled that Spitty's human enjoyed her treats! Mom thought it was all over and done with when...what did Mom receive today? Let me show you!
A beautifully wrapped package arrived!
From San Francisco!
Mom wondered
what in the world it could be!
Spitty's human wrote
a most thoughtful note!!
Then Mom opened the package:
Spitty's human had sent the most WONDERFUL magnets that feature the art of Richard Diebenkorn, who grew up in San Francisco. Mom also received a gorgeous set of postcards that feature the artists Matisse and Picasso! They are from the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Click here to read about the museum.
Mom was incredibly touched by the thoughtfulness of Spitty's human, but she was also a tad embarrassed. To represent Detroit, Mom sends calorie-laden treats, well Detroit IS one of the fattest cities in the country, now we know why and Spitty's human sends culture, sophistication and intellect to represent San Franciso...all wrapped beautifully in a box!
Spitty's human said it was "one of her favorite spots."
Hmmm...I think there is a deeper message here. Spitty's human is the epitome of culture, class, brains and sophistication and she portrayed San Francisco as such.
My Mom chooses a gift to represent Detroit that is chocolate-caramel-and -nut-laden. Mom's gift infers that she spends her days sitting on her fat-behind trolling the Internet while shoving bon-bons down her throat, while Spitty's human is soaking up art and culture. Mom chooses a gift that says that HER "favorite spot" is a friggin CANDY SHOP!! If her gift is a representation of Detroit, NO WONDER WE LOST!
THANK YOU SPITTY'S HUMAN!!
YOU WIN YET AGAIN!
Love, Cody
