Happy Holidays with Camels

We had a very traditional Christmas, with camels!
And donkeys.
And goats. Look, I got the goats to pose for a picture! The artificial intelligences just told me that the baby Jesus had sheep, not goats, but whatever.
Even more traditional, we were in the land of frankincense, below. But it's just a fragrant resin for incense. Not an ideal baby gift, but easily exchangeable? Unlike Bahraini dinars in Singapore.
Here's a wise man we could ask?
Gold is more practical. Here is what I'm asking for from Barry.
He suggested golden light-up reindeer instead.
So I gave him a gift of upgraded Christmas eve cheese fondue.
Anyway, let's see what you can find in the Manama Souq.
Festive clothing:
Festive footwear: Spuer and Adios brands.
The spices are amazing! I learnt about black (dried/fermented) limes, and why they should be in my life.
Cinnamon the size of umbrellas, and festive pasta!
We didn't go to the homeland this year, but we toured the Canadian coffee trio.
Hoping that Singapore Tim Hortons increases their donut selection. It was nearly 3x larger here. Which is still only the selection at the average Canadian gas station.

Adopt Donut the Cat?

Hello, my name is Donut. Would you like to adopt me?I was found abandoned, severely undernourished and infested with fleas.
Now I am a healthy sterilised 2-4 year old mid/long-haired orange boi who likes to cuddle. I'm chill, quiet, litter-trained, FIV/FELV negative, de-wormed/de-flead etc. I have a delightful personality and am very sweet.I'm clean, soft and floofy, with big white feets that I still need to grow into. 
I really love to be indoors and to sleep on a soft bed, where I sometimes make biscuits.
I seem to have had a previous hip strain, so I don't jump too high, and I don't love my back legs being touched too much, unless you're brushing me.
My favourite things in the world are being brushed, sleeping, cuddling, the zoomies, and catnip.
Other fun facts - I have a brown lower lip and a few freckles around my eye that give me an inquisitive expression.
I like to explore, and some of my toys, but I am still learning to play. Luckily, I don't use my claws.
I have a loving foster home, but they can't keep me because of allergies, so I'm looking for a new home.
I would be good with a family without small kids, but we're not sure if I like dogs or other cats, yet.
Please reach out to @laura_slamdoozle if you are interested in adopting Donut. No fees, but standard CWS guidelines apply.
