Let's see... it says here...

[scanning text] Yep. Says here to place varmint on micro-wave safe dish. Step two, sprinkle with garlic salt. I'm positive that's what it says.

Good thing you have a sous-chef, Kelly L...

First time I've ever seen an owl read without his glasses...He's too cute!: brinnann; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:31 PM

In Russian, at that!: ella; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:32 PM

BTW, can anyone tell what he's reading?: brinnann; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:32 PM

I love owls. So glad to see one here.: Shawna; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:36 PM

How adorable is that??? Good to see he gives a hoot about preparing food properly...: kimberly; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:37 PM

Hmmm.... he looks like such a sophisticated owl. I didn't think he'd use the word "varmint". Maybe he's from the South.... of Russia?: musicchick2; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:40 PM

OWL!! Oh my god I love it.: Hikari; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:41 PM

Yes, it is Russian, and the book is entitled "The other history of the middle ages". It is not a cookbook.Give this bird more credit: kobra; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:43 PM

He's looking up recipes from the Middle Ages; he's doing a home ec project and history project at the same time.: brinnann; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:45 PM

Maybe that's how they cooked varmints in the other middle ages, kobra.: Sven; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:45 PM

"The Other History of the Middle Ages"??? Sounds like Owl's too proud to admit he can't read a word of it.: Theo; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:46 PM

How did they get an owl to sit calmly on the counter inside a house in the daytime? I hope that owl isn't stuffed...: mm; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:50 PM

I think he's reading Harry Potter. Srsly! O Rly?: Holly; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:51 PM

Shouldn't that owl be delivering a letter to Hogwarts? I love owls. How cool to have one sitting on your kitchen counter!: Robbie; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:53 PM

THE OWLS ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM: CP; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:56 PM

I can just read the 2nd word... History. history of cuteness???: Karebear; | Jun 04, 2007 at 12:57 PM

what a beautiful owl! I didn't know they could be kept like a pet. but he/she is absolutely gorgeous. (is there a little mousie duct-taped to the inside page of that book???): liz; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:02 PM

Meg, GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!! Just yesterday, looking at that kitten/owl, I was wondering why we didn't have more Owly McOwlsons on here. *gets tin foil helmet*: Lizzy; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:02 PM

Eets Vladimir Hootin.: pyrit; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:03 PM

Holly: Ya Rly!: Lizzy; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:03 PM

Hmmm, I was told that owls make terrible pets. They're supposed to be niegh untameable(?). Maybe that was just snowy owls. I can't remember anymore. Anyone know anything about this situation?: MaliceAlice; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:04 PM

I was also told that owls make bad pets. He was a serial rapist so I don't know if I should trust him or not.: Funny $#!%; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:11 PM

Funny $#!%, just read your blog. Yep, that's some funny $#!%, particularly about the slim jims.: brinnann; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:29 PM

"Vladimir Hootin" pyrit, you are cracking me up today.: Laurie C; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:31 PM

No, wait, I've got it! He was delivering Hermoine's letter to Viktor and decided to help Viktor w/his homework while he waited for the return letter. Wow, I read too much HP.: brinnann; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:37 PM

oh man, owls have been my latest love. im going to do a giant owl painting. i <3 owl Holly and Lizzy: NO WAI!!!: moofyboof; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:39 PM

Vladimir Hootin! HAH! I like that. o rly? ya rly! srsly? ok, i'm done.: Holly; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:42 PM

For those curious about owls as pets I found this here at about.com http://exoticpets.about.com/od/birds/a/owlsaspets.htm For those who want to just read here's the important stuff. About Owls The problem with owls is that they are not suitable as pets. They are beautiful, majestic and awe-inspiring, but they are also large and powerful with extremely sharp talons. They require a steady diet of small animals (fed whole). They are not sociable, and need room to fly in a large aviary, which most people just can't provide. I've worked with owls, and they are amazing and wonderful animals. Just not good pets. It also bears mentioning that in the US, it is illegal to take most wild bird species from the wild without a permit from the Fish and Wildlife Service (and permits are not issued for the purposes of keeping wild birds as pets). Similar regulations may exist in other countries.: annie; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:45 PM

pyrit: Vladimir Hootin *dies laughing* Great pic! XD: Lerrinus; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:46 PM

"Do the owls have large talons?" /nd: earlymouse; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:54 PM

Oh lawd, between this and the bebeh turtley, my head asplode from all the cuteness! Owls and turts are my faves! Oh happy day :): Maryland grad; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:55 PM

Umm, shouldn't it be a "hoo"-chef?: Maggie; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:57 PM

"Hmmm....I wonder if Mead goes well with varmint...?": DKN; | Jun 04, 2007 at 01:59 PM

Vladimir Hootin? Genius! He looks pretty small. Must be Pigwidgeon during a rare calm moment.: Lillith; | Jun 04, 2007 at 02:07 PM

CP... thank you. That's the first thing that went through my head. And, I've been a little creeped out by owls ever since! lol This little guy is cute though...: Yes, my name is really Cricket; | Jun 04, 2007 at 02:08 PM

Speaking of Pigwidgeon... http://mfrost.typepad.com/cute_overload/2006/01/you_can_send_us.html: Yes, my name is really Cricket; | Jun 04, 2007 at 02:14 PM

I love the owl. I didn't know that owls could read.: Shannon Johnson; | Jun 04, 2007 at 02:23 PM

annie, I've worked with (albeit smaller) birds of prey and totally agree. Wild animals aren't pets. If they were they'd be domestic. They are, by definition, not pets. Lovely to watch, though :): R. Moore; | Jun 04, 2007 at 02:43 PM

The book is titled Different History of the Middle Ages.: O; | Jun 04, 2007 at 02:55 PM

I'm in ur kitchen readin ur medievals LOL @ "Vladimir Hootin"!: lurkertype; | Jun 04, 2007 at 02:57 PM

Barring any unforeseen developments, I should get this done in a hoot minute.: SeaBreeze; | Jun 04, 2007 at 02:59 PM

Hoot sweet, eh SeaBreeze?: Theo; | Jun 04, 2007 at 03:03 PM

Need more details. Want more pictures. Owls rule!! I'd love to have an owl as a pet, but unless you raise or rescue one, I don't think it's a great idea (yes I know it's illegal). I know of a guy in Britain who has an owl that likes to ride on the handlebars of his bicycle. ;D They go to the local pub together. It's so funny how happily and willingly some wild animals adapt to humans. Very sweet when it conforts both parties.: Marie; | Jun 04, 2007 at 03:14 PM

h00t!: tesstricks; | Jun 04, 2007 at 03:33 PM

"In Soviet Russia, varmints eat you-hoo!": Tony James; | Jun 04, 2007 at 03:54 PM

more like "In Soviet Russia, they're sick of this joke too!" (I taunt out of love, TJ.): Theo; | Jun 04, 2007 at 04:04 PM

Hey CP, No other Twin Peaks freaks here but us.: Jeanet; | Jun 04, 2007 at 04:35 PM

the owl may be learning russian, but i bet you it still doesn't know how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop.: soulcal006; | Jun 04, 2007 at 05:05 PM

I would totally move to Russia if it meant I could have a pet owl! I know in reality, owls don't make for good pets at all... but then why are they so darn cute!?! You see? My logic is FLAWLESS.: grau; | Jun 04, 2007 at 05:08 PM

Brinnann, the book is "The other history of medieval times." The red bar at the top says "Versions of world history.": Alina; | Jun 04, 2007 at 05:21 PM
