Miss Zoe Presents: Flip Friday, Chester Edition

Since we have a Special Guest at our house, we thought we would feature Him for our Rabbit Movie this week.

Therefore, this week is Flip Friday:  The Chester Edition!!!

Chester is a Very Cute Bunny.  This fact you will see.  By the end of the movie, you will be won over by His Charm.  You will.  I promise.

In the movie, you see Chester at the top of the staircase.  He is contained there by a strategically placed baby gate, because only feet away are.... Unfixed Girl Bunnies.

Need I say more?

NO?

I didn't think so.

On to Chester, then.

A SPECIAL SHOUT OUT GOES TO CHESTER'S VACATIONING FAMILY!!  This is what Chester's doing while you're away.  He is trying to get to the ladies!



We hope you have enjoyed your Bunny Week!!  If all goes as it has in the past, we may have an Easter Bunny sighting in the yard on Easter Morning.  If that should happen, you will be the first to know!  (Well, the first after me, the Chick, four cats, and three Rabbits.  You're not that low on the list though.)

About Flip Friday

I have to say that I am really disappointed that I didn't get a Flip Friday up for you this past week.

Here's the thing:  I had Technical Difficulties.

I know, it sounds really lame, but I did.  And yes, I asked the Rabbits and the Cats and even the Chick to help me, but to no avail.

I also know that until I get the new thing that I am trying to get working to work (A NEW FORM OF MOVIE THAT WILL TOTALLY SET MISS ZOE PRESENTS FANS ON THEIR FLUFFY LITTLE TAILS!!!!), I will continue to recieve looks such as these:

"Ummmmmm..... Miss Zoe Presents IMPLIES A PRESENTATION!!!"

"What's the cotton pickin' problem with this movie thing, eh?"

 "Need I really say a word?  No, I didn't think so."

AND, I WAS SO EXCITED!!!!  SIGH.

Well, rest assured that humans, cats and Rabbits will work on This Problem 24 hours a day** to make sure it is resolved.  Your Satisfaction is Important to Us.

** Note:  24 hours a day may or may not actually mean what it says.

Please stay tuned.  We know you will, for Rabbit's Sake.

Miss Zoe Presents: Flip Friday

As it is Blueberry's Big Debut at story time next week, I thought we could warm Her up with a starring role in Her own movie.

I know, She has had Her own movie before. But She can be a little camera shy. It is something that we are working on.

Lucky for you we are working on it, because it means you get Blueberry movies!!!

So, are you ready for one? Prepare ye the way of Blueberry.

Miss Zoe Presents: Herself

Last weekend would have been Zoe's birthday.  It was my birthday, too.  We shared the day.

Next week, I will write about the present I got, which was Very Exciting Indeed.  But for now, I would like to focus on a Certain Rabbit.

The point of focusing on a Certain Rabbit is to let you know that She is Still Watching You.  Lest you should forget.  Her Watchful Eye is Always Upon You.

Not in a scary Lord of the Rings way.

Well, maybe a little.

Not if you are behaving, though.  If you are behaving, Her Eye is on you in a Loving and Watchful way.

Otherwise......  Well...... Ahem.

Only you know for sure.  In any case,  Miss Zoe remains watchful, and that is the point of today's Movie.

Without further delay, then, I present, Miss Zoe:

Zoe Presents: Flip Friday

Yes, it's that day again.

Friday.  Friday of the Flip variety.

That's right.  It's time for an Elizabeth Movie.  I don't think She's been in the spotlight nearly enough.  She agrees with that sentiment wholeheartedly.

I usually make the Rabbit Movies during the day.  Well, that just makes sense, doesn't it, to make movies (or hay) while the sun shines?  But the Winter can present a problem in terms of lighting.

On this particular project, Our Little Elizabeth brought in an assistant.   Namely, the Chick.  With a flashlight.  We shall call it...a SPOTLIGHT!  A spotlight on our New Little Star.

It's very Film Noir.  Prepare yourself for the Magic.  It's Rabbit Magic, Baby.

ARE YOU READY?   LET THE MAGIC BEGIN:

Flip Friday

It is:  FLIP FRIDAY!

As promised, we, here in the Rabbit Room, are going to post a couple of Classic Zoe Movies.

Up to this point, I have been thinking it would be too hard to watch Zoe in action.  But really, it turned out to be nice to see Her.

Here, see for yourself.





See? It is just nice to see Her again. Thanks for sharing in the experience.

Have a great weekend!!

A Show of hands, Please

I would venture to say that a few of you out there have missed your Weekly Rabbit Movies.

Is that so?

Because it feels like forever since one was posted.  I think it may actually be Forever.

Well, no, not really.  

I think my issue has been that losing Miss Zoe also made me lose interest in making movies for a bit.  She was so integral to the whole Movie Making Process, and though I have made movies since, and though She has been a part of them (they do say "Miss Zoe Presents, after all), something about the whole process has felt a bit off.

But, I think I am ready to let that go.  I have to remember that Zoe is always with me, the same as all the Cats who went to Sparkle Pond before Her. 

She is not here in corporeal form anymore, but She is always with me.  Sometimes I forget that. 

Since She has gone to Sparkle Pond, I have not been able to watch a video of Her.  It just still feels too hard.  But for Friday, I think I want that to stop.  I think I want to post a video, an Oldie and a Goodie, of Miss Zoe.  We will all watch it and remember Her Beauty.  Because, it Was and Remains Great.

Are you with me?

I guess you had better be!!

OK.  See you then for Flip Friday.

OK, it's a little late in the day for Flip Friday, but we thought you might like to see our newest addition...

ZOE PRESENTS: Cinematic Saturday

It's the Year of the Rabbit.  That's true.

But, we musn't forget the Other Animals who live here in the Lilypad.

Oh, no.

We musn't.

This week on ZOE PRESENTS, we see a movie that stars all of the Stars here at Lilypad.   As the movie begins, you'll find that Miss Blueberry has really stepped up Her acting from last weeks "Rest-ie."  As for the....Others...I couldn't get them to do anything that could officially be called jumping or leaping or anything, but at least there's a wee bit of Activity.

That's all we ask for.

It stars their new Cat Tree, which has proved to be more popular than we ever would have imagined.  Like, so WAAAAAAAAY more popular than we ever would have imagined.  Like, WOW!

MISS ZOE PRESENTS!!!!

ZOE PRESENTS....

Well, here's the thing.  It's Flip Friday and we have a GREAT movie for you, but we can't get it to upload to Vimeo or to YouTube.

What are we to do?

What we normally do is press on with something else and post a movie for Cinematic Saturday.  And that's precisely what we will hope for for this week.  That by Saturday, whatever technical difficulties that are afoot will have worked themselves out.

Because you know what, Vimeo?  If you don't work it out this is what you are going to have to deal with:
UH-HUH.  Yeah, that's right.  That's some serious explaining you'll have to do.

I'm just sayin'.

OK, so try back tomorrow.  Please.  It's the Year of the Rabbit.  You owe it to yourself and to the World.

ZOE PRESENTS: Flip Friday

We all know that without ZOE, there would be no Flip Friday.  And just because ZOE is at Sparkle Pond it doesn't mean that She is any less important to the Flip Friday Film Making Process process.

In fact, as a Resident of Sparkle Pond, She has Complete Creative Control now.

Complete Creative Control.

Got it?

We here at the Lilypad have decided to rename Flip Friday to add "ZOE PRESENTS: Flip Friday."  It's a more accurate depiction of what is really going on that way, don't you think?

This week, we have for you a Rabbit Movie.  Miss Blueberry stars in Her Very First Solo Role.  Well, that's not entirely true, I guess, as She did have Her own Digging Movie a while back.  Today's Solo Role is as the Lilypad's only Currently Corporeal Rabbit, and that is Something.

I must say one more thing, and that is that I use the term "Movie" rather loosely here, as Miss Blueberry is, ummmmm......not so much Move-ing as Rest-ing.  We could call it a Rest-ie.

AND NOW.....ZOE PRESENTS...... BLUEBERRY!!!

Happy last day of 2010 from our Lilypad to you!!!

Flip Friday

Here in Erie, Pennsylvania, Winter is approaching.

Winter can get super cold here because of the Lake and stuff.  We get a ton of snow and so winter coats are Important.

Even though Rabbits don't go outside, Winter Coats are Important to Them, too.  And so, each year about this time, They Molt off their Summer/ Autumn Coat and they grow their new Winter Snow Coat.

I say all this to say this:  Rabbits are a little Messy right now.  They are busy molting.  They have bits of hair here and there that just pop up and out.

When you're a Star, you want people to see you at Your Best.

Now, They know that you are not judgmental!  Of course you aren't!  Even so, They are Sensitive about Their looks.

AND, I say ALL THAT to say THIS:  You are getting Old Rabbit Movies Again.  Reruns.  Oldies but Goodies. 





So there you are.   Your Rabbit Fix. 

On Monday, back to Italy!!

Have a great weekend!

Friday, November 5, 2010

Flip Friday

We interrupt this broadcast of Stuff About Italy to bring you....

A RABBIT MOVIE!

Or Two.

Living in a house with Rabbits requires that you live by certain rules.  These Rules assume the knowledge that though you may think that you are an OK human being, A Rabbit is Always Better, Always Cuter, Always More Important.

There are Lots of Rules to live by when you share your home with Rabbits.  When you share your Blog with Rabbits, there is one Main Rule that you must live by:

1.  Always show a Rabbit Movie if you are capable.  Preferably on Friday.

And that is what we shall do.  Now, The Girls and I haven't prepared any New Rabbit Movies, due to the the fact of my very own laziness (my Flip camera is still full of movies I made for the Chick in Italy, which I narrated for her to show her certain sights that I wanted her to see "with" me), but they insisted that I post Rabbit Movies of some kind.

So, we chose one that stars Both the Lilypad's Gorgeous Rabbits, and one In Which Miss Zoe Practices Her Italian.  Do you remember these oldies but goodies?

Zoe Practices Her Italian from marcy hall on Vimeo.

Even if you've seen these before, they warrant a second look, say the Rabbits. (YOU SHOULD LISTEN!!!)

HAPPY WEEKEND! More about Italy (and Rabbits and cats) to come!!

Flip Friday

This will be the last Flip Friday in awhile, so Zoe and I put our heads together to come up with something special.

A BLACK AND WHITE MOVIE!!

OK, well, it may not be what you think.

This black and white movie is a black and white movie because it stars....Black and White Animals!!!

Specifically, it stars two of the Lilypad's famous Black and White Animals. You will see the ones, but one has Thumbs, and one has, well....Very Long Ears.

A special thanks goes out to the Chick, who filmed the footage for this particular film. It has a rough, documentary feel to it, which matches the rough and tumble subjects.

Without further delay then, we present to you A Black and White Movie:

It occurred to me recently that we haven't had a good, old-fashioned Rabbit Eating Greens Movie in awhile.

Are you up for that?  Are you?

Because I am.  And really, I don't see how you couldn't be.  A Rabbit Eating Greens Movie is SO appealing!

In case you've been missing it as much as I have, here you go!!!

Flip Friday, The Hot Weather Edition

First let me say thank you to all of you who wrote in to defend Miss Zoe's Right to be in The Banner.

As you can see, your hard work paid off.

Zoe is pleased.

And, it is good.

So, it's Friday-- Flip Friday to be more exact.  It was hot here in the Lilypad when I approached Zoe to star in a movie to thank Her fans for speaking up for Her.  It was perhaps 9 million degrees Fahrenheit.  Add the heat index, and you get somewhere in the trillions of degrees.   That's hot for us Northern Folk.

(Of course, it's a bit cooler in the air conditioned Rabbit Room.)

In thanks, however, Miss Zoe mustered up the strength to make this video:

HAPPY FRIDAY!  Have a great weekend!!

Flip Friday!

Somehow, last week, we did not post a video.  How did that happen?

Well, we won't make that mistake two weeks in a row.

This week's movie stars your Two Favorite Lilypad Inhabitants.  You know-- the ones with the longish ears and the puffy little tails and the hoppy little walk?  Do you know the Ones?

In case you need to refresh your memory, here They are!

Flip Friday (EXCUSES!!!)

What?  Oh, right.  It's Friday?

You're right.  It IS Friday.  So what?

Ummm....there's not anything that usually happens on Friday.  NO!  We, Rabbits and I, don't know to what you are referring! 

We don't!  SERIOUSLY, we...hey...what?  Wait, I-- OUCH!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Zoe and Blueberry here.  We have taken over the keyboard.

We'd like to say this about humans:  Sometimes, humans are lazy.

We were perfectly willing to make a Rabbit Movie last night for Your Viewing Pleasure today, but do you know what?  THE HUMANS WERE TOO LAZY TO MAKE IT!!!

Instead, what did they do?  They drew pictures on themselves with pens.  Ridiculous, however, I suppose when you don't have Beautiful Lovely Gorgeous Fur, you have to do something to make yourself more presentable.  We wouldn't know.

A word the Chick asked for on her arm.

 The first drawing on the Chick-- trying out the tattoo pens.

The Celtic Rabbit that our mother drew on herself.  
At last-- something worthy of drawing on your skin!

We shall see when we feel like making a movie now.  We would stay tuned for a Monday Movie if We were you. 

And, thank goodness we are not you, human.  Thank goodness We are not.

Now go eat some Human Carrots.

Flip Friday

Last week, you got a great Rabbit Movie for Flip Friday that starred Zoe's terribly cute lips.

A couple of weeks before that, you were there FIRSTHAND, as Blueberry tried to dig Her way to China or somewhere.

Now, this week, you are probably thinking that another Rabbit Movie would be nice. 

The thing is, though, that it is that time of year.

(That time = both of the Girls are molting.)

When They are molting, they prefer being kept out of the public eye.

(Well, how would you feel if you were molting and someone was following you around trying to make a movie of you in which your fur looked....substandard?  Rabbits are perfectionists.  They don't have time to fool around with movies that don't show Them at Their Absolute Best.)

The Girls' suggestion, then, was a Cat Movie.  Zoe said to Toby and Daisy, who were nearby and not doing Anything Important, which as Blueberry pointed out, is totally Typical of cats, "Do something cute, will you?  We need a movie for Flip Friday, and it's not going to be of Us. Get Lilly to help you if you want."

Here, then, is what transpired:

Best Friends from marcy hall on Vimeo.
Well, there you have it. Flip Friday is over for another week.

Don't fret. Rabbits will return next week

With a Vengeance!!

Happy Weekend. No movies if you're molting, now. No Movies!

Flip Friday

This week, at some point, Miss Zoe pointed out to me this Fact:

There has not been a ZOE MOVIE in quite some time.

Like, probably a couple of weeks at least.  And, what is that about?

Does anyone know?

Because I don't.

In honor of Zoe's question, then, let us remedy that fact with an Old Fashioned Zoe The Rabbit Movie!!!!
