Guillermo's in the kitchen

Guillermo Gray here. I am in the monkey test kitchen once again cooking up some viddles. This week I am making a delicious Mocha Monkey Bread from a kit Jen got at Target.


Looking at the ingredients I noticed that there are Mocha chips inside of the mix. MOCHA CHIPS!!!! THEY MAKE MOCHA CHIPS!!!!!

Sorry, I got a little excited.....

We mixed the dry ingredients with 1 cup of water.

Once the batter was made we rolled the dough into little balls and coated them in sugar. Look at the deliciousness.
We then dropped the batter balls into a buttered round pan. Can you see the mocha chips in there?
Then we added butter and baked. It was the perfect way to spend the day. I just love cooking in the kitchen!






Jen here. By we Guillermo meant Jen. This is the actual way that Guillermo 'helped' in the kitchen.....





Oh look, the box of mix.........

Where's Guillermo?






Oh, is this how you 'made' mocha monkey bread?!?
hee..... hee..... hee.....

Things you forget over the summer

Since going back to work I have been a little lax on putting my craft stuff away. Last night I was working on a cute little octopus and left some of the stuffing out. Oops. I came home to find Guillermo staring longingly at Bernardo's new do.

I keep hearing the lyrics to John Lennon's 'Jealous Guy' when I look at those two. But come on, Bernardo does look pretty awesome!


Guillermo decided he needed to show Bernardo up and go punk rock.
I really hope those don't color his head...

I wonder what these two will be up to tomorrow.

OMG this thing is awesome!!!!!

Last night Jen and Brian when over to Jen's folks for dinner. When they got there Jen got this minkee purse as a gift from her parents. Jen says it is a coin purse, I say it is awesome! I have been struttin' my stuff around here wearing this puppy all day. I do look fetching if I do say so myself.
Being the curious sort of creature I had to check this thing out from all angles. I doesn't fit much, just half a muzzle. Can't blame a minkee for trying. I think it is pretty cool that Jen's folks are keeping the minkee tradition alive.
Well, I am off to find more uses for this thing. If you have any ideas let me know. Oh and FYI, I already have used it as a fart holder so you will need to come up with something different.

Guillermo out!

You gotta do what you gotta do

Today has been a cold, cold day compared to the last week or so.  It was windy and rainy and it sent chills down to my tiny minkee bones.  I did what any good monkey would do, found some warmth.  These are a pair of Jen's moon pants.  They are a bit too big, so I think I will have to locate somewhere new to get warm.
I decided to go straight for the warm socky goodness.  I crawled into Jen's socks and hung out for a while.  Only problem was that she was unable to walk with me in her socks.  It became a problem when she had to go cook dinner, so I had to find a new place to stay warm as well.
Now, that's the stuff.  A nice warm pillow, Guillermo's warming toots and a dryer sheet on my head.  This is the life.  It is good to be a minkee sometimes.  Hope Jen doesn't want this pillow any time soon.

Minkees out!

Friday Foto Fiesta 11.7.08

What the!!!!!!!!!!!


Much to our surprise we found THIS on the floor last night! Again we say WHAT THE!!!!! Is Jen or Brian a minkee murderer?!? What happend to this poor guy..... Better yet, what is going to happen to us?!?

Jen here. Don't fret boys, its just G-mo's new body. The old was is going through some wear and tear issues (not to mention the tiny brown Jagermister stain on his muzzle.....). Sometimes you just got to remake a monkey.

Trivia question (and yes, Carrie you do know the answer!) What number body is Guillermo on (counting this new one.)? How about Bernardo? He's getting a new one too. One with a fuller belly and less barrel chested.

Make sure to stop on over at Candid Carries Corner for some Fx4 Fun!

Ooohhh, Comfy!

If you didn't get to check out the photo of Jen's classroom comfy classroom library from Friday's Foto Fiesta on Aren't you glad your not me, here it is.  There were a lot of great comments that people left about the reading area in the classroom.

What you didn't know is the we broke the pillows in.  Guillermo seasoned one with his bodacious butt bombs, while I just spent the day chillin' like a villin.  We are a bit too scared to go to school this year, so we will have to hang at the apartment while Jen is at work.  We don't want one of the students to walk off with us.

We initially wanted to invite some lady minkees to come and join us on the comfy pillows, but Jen said that minkees like us are only male.  Jen also explained that minkees like us have to be knit and she only has patterns for boys.  Oh well, we like hanging out together.  We're best minkee buds.  Plus we do not, I repeat do not, want any cooties!

Friday Foto Finish 8.8

This weeks entry for Candid Carries Friday Foto Finish Fiesta is this lovely we took this week on vacation.  My husband did an awesome job taking it so the flash doesn't show.  The background is of the Galena Territory which is in a word, beautiful.

The reason I like this one so much is because it looks like it has a fake done with photoshop.  Thanks for visiting and we look forward to viewing your entries for this week as well.

Minkees in their natural habitat...

Today, Evan and Kelly had an update of their time in India.  They took some pictures and video of some minkees in their natural habitat. It was pretty cool.  Well, that inspired Guillermo and Bernardo to embrace their inner 'wild' minkeee and have some fun..

Here we have Bernardo playing in the jungle.  As you know there are some plants in the jungle held up by macrame vines.  There was a lot of hooting and swinging around on those vines.  B-man had a lot of fun!  The only problem he had was getting upset when he had some dirt on his little minkee butt.  His arms aren't long enough reach, but Guillermo was there with the assist. 

G-unit had some fun playing in the trees.  He really needs to remember that he has gotten stuck in that tree so many times.  He was quite content with hanging out in there and shouting comments at us all day.  There was also a lot of hooting.  At one point Guillermo asked if he can embrace the inner monkey and throw things.  I didn't ask what he wanted to throw, I thought a solid "NO" would be the only answer for that little guy.  You give him an inch and the poo will fly.  There was a little pouting, but I suggested that the minkees groom each other like the 'wild' minkees do and we heard nothing but giggling for the next hour.

Once they came in from the jungle/sun porch they decided to practice swinging around from vine to vine on the tree lamp.  They really didn't have much room to swing, but they made the most of it.  After a while they got a little tired and swung down to the couch for a nice long nap.  They slept for hours, snoring and farting the whole time.  I bet you can guess which monkey was the farty one!

Getting Ready to get Lost

We decided we needed to settle down a bit before Lost starts, so we practiced part of the Ashtanga Primary Series.  Bernardo is doing Upavistha Konasana or wide angled seated forward bend.  That is one of Jen's all time favorites.  Brian just rolls his eyes jealously when she plops down the the floor with ease.  Her butt sticks up just like Bernardos too!!  I am doing  hanumanasana or monkey pose!  They named a pose after monkeys!!! OMG that is awesome!!!  Brain has been practicing this one for a while and just two days ago made it on both sides.  It was pretty freaking awesome!!!!  Now, we are just waiting for Lost to start and find out how our cutie pie Kate is doing....  We still hope to run across her in the jungle and cuddle attack her.  She won't know what hit her!!!   Well, we are off to make popcorn and watch the show.  More posts tomorrow...  Monkeys out!

What on Earth???

Yesterday, it was 82 degrees outside.  Today, 59!!!  What is going on with the weather?!?  Did a meteorite hit Earth?  Are we entering the next ice age???  Is Guillermo's vow to quit farting effecting global warming?  What is going on???  What's worse, Jen's been gone for over 10 hours so she can't answer our questions!!!  Too many long hours for her lately!  She needs some good quality minkey time! (Only ten more days of work for her this school year.  Then she is ours for the summer!)  Since we had the whole day to ourselves, we turned on the Weather Channel and saw that a cold front came through.  Good thing, we thought the worst was coming our way!


Now, on to tonight's festivities!  Hell's kitchen is on with our favorite chef Corey!  That cute, cuddly, chef De Jour Corey.  I wonder what she would cook for a festive little minkey like me!!!  I don't know what I'll do if she gets voted off!!!  Guillermo votes her to stay all the way!!!  Corey, Corey, Corey!!!  I have a new mantra...  Where's my mala?

Chillin like villins

What better way to spend a three day weekend than hanging out and enjoying the weather.  At least until the big storm hit last night.  What a doosey!  However, this weekend was all about having fun and relaxing.  We channeled our inner minkee and swung around the sun porch and the apartment.  We hooted like minkees and scared the next door neighbors dog!  (which is a good thing, she never stops barking when she's outside.)  We also laid out so I can work on becoming even more mocha brown.  There was even a few rounds of our favorite minkee games like Scrabble, Twister, Zombies and the all time best game ever; Barrel of Monkeys!   All in all a pretty good weekend.  I wonder what Jen and Brian did?

5/24/08

O.K. We're Better...

Jen explained that the thing in the basket was a prototype for the two of us.  She apparently tried out a number of sizes before she came up with the perfect minkey size. Which is good, we are so cute and cuddly this size I can't imagine being THAT BIG!  She apologized several times, she forgot that she hadn't gotten rid of it.  I took it upon myself to destroy it.  So, I  farted on it for good measure, then Bernardo and I tried to rip it to shreds.  However, NO opposable thumbs made that pretty hard, so Jen took the scissors to it and it is now destroyed.  Whew!  Glad that is over.  I was a scared little minkee for a while.  By the way, sorry I farted on your pillows Jen.   You might want to throw the cases in the wash along with your favorite comfy pants.  Sorry, its what minkees do when they are upset.  Love you.....

WHAT THE!!!!!

We were minding our own business out on the sun porch when we came across this:



What the H*LL JEN!!!  Why are you making another one of us!  Two of us are enough monkeys in this household.  Plus are you making a giant.  This guy is huge!  And does he eat a lot of carrots?  His coloring is WAY OFF!   I don't know about you. All day we hear you complain about how hard it is to handle us two, and you make this guy!  What are you thinking?  We need a time out away from you!  Sorry, you have upset us!  Monkey out!

Suds and Bubbles Day!

Well, its that time of the week my friends.  Our favorite day of the week, suds and bubbles day!!!  Here we are getting ready for our bath.  We don't want to be obscene and show you the actual event because we have to get naked.  While we enjoy being naked, Jen says we don't need to flaunt our bare selves on the internet.  There are enough photos of naked monkeys without the two of us showing ourselves off.

We just want our faithful readers to know that we do take our minkee hygiene very seriously!  No filthy minkees in this household.  Lots of suds and bubbles followed by careful grooming.  We also do our grooming in the other room away from Brian and Jen.  It is our minkee private time when we make ourselves clean and presentable to the public.  After suds and bubbles tonight, we are going to watch some t.v. and then adjourn to our luxury accommodations for the night.  Minkees out!

Minkee Flowers

What would Jen like better than coming home to a bunch of flowers in these vases?  Minkee Flowers A.K.A. B-unit and G-man sittin pretty in these lovely bamboo vases!  We look sooooo cute in here, don't we.  Only problem.... The G-man is stuck, I repeat, the G-man is stuck!  HELP!!!  This vase is tooo small!


O.K. Bernardo was nice enough to trade vases with me (and look, he's too fat to fit in his vase.  He has to sit on top!).  Only problem... This one is too big!!!  (Does this sound familiar?  Sounds like a bedtime story...)  I fell right in and am stuck all over again!  Maybe Jen will help me out.  However, if I do say so myself, I look awfully cute in here.  I think I'm good until the Bri-Guy gets here.  Maybe he will bring home some real flowers!!!

Tag We're It!

So, we have been tagged!  Since there are two minkeys and a human who do most of the posting we thought it only appropriate to have six fun filled facts that you may not know about all of us...  We will see if Brian wants to add anything when he gets home, but we'll leave the choice up to him...

 Guillermo.....
1.  If someone says hammertime, I have to do the hammertime dance.  It's kind of like Cartman having to sing the entire song "Come Sail Away" when someone sings a lyric.  It is quite annoying, but minkeys love to dance.

2.  My head had to recreated because I got some of Jen's blush on my nose and it wouldn't come off, even after ten suds and bubbles.  I was too embarrassed to be photographed, so I had Jen make me a new head.

3.  When Jen and Brian are both gone, I fart on their pillows... I am a monkey, don't question or judge!

4.  My favorite chef on Hell's Kitchen is Corey.  I could get pretty cuddly with her if you know what I mean...

5.  My favorite game to play is cute shark.  It is where I crawl around on the ground and chase Jen, Brian and Bernardo while being extremely cute.  Only problem.... My butt wiggles too much!

6.  Gordon Ramsey is my idol,  now "Piss off you stupid donkey!"  (that's what he says, so I can say it too!!!)


Bernardo...
1.   While Jen is at work, I play with her beads........  All of the beads, not this little pile!!!

2.  I may be festive, wear a rainbow scarf and am 'gay', but I am not that 'gay'.  B-man loves the ladies.
 
3.  I am allergic to bananas!  Fortunately, I don't eat them... just wear them!

4.  I would cuddle Kate from Lost like she's never been cuddled before!!!  She is hot!!! Plus, she is traversing the jungle....  guess where I am from... the jungle!  Maybe we can run into one another!!!

5.  My favorite superheros are: Captain Coconauts, Iron Man and Hellboy!  

6.  I left a present in Jen's beads..... If you know what I mean!

Jen...



1. I know for a fact that there is more than one way to skin a cat!  Sorry cat lovers (Carrie) I took Anatomy and Physiology in college and that was a requirement.  I was in a group with three men, I was the only one willing to attempt the skinning.  It was quite interesting to perform it, and there is defiantly more than one way, but I don't want to gross you out too much...

2.  I sang in a back up choir for none other than "The Gambler" at the Mark of the Quad Cities presentation of: A Kenny Roger's Christmas.  Yes ladies and gentlemen I got to meet the gambler himself (he smelled like chicken, weird huh), had my picture taken and sang two songs in a backup choir.  

3.  I was banned from an adult bookstore for three months! They took my photo and posted it!   Always remember kids.... A six foot inflatable penis when hit with your fist, may fall back but comes back up with lightening speed.  If you are curious, click for more details.

4.  I don't like chocolate.  Sorry, just don't like it.  However, you put Skittles or Jelly Beans in front of me and they are gone in seconds.

5.  I make jewelry and malas as a 'side business'.  Malas are Tibetan prayer beads.

6.  I have recently begun and am now addicted to my sinus rinse.  I love to gross out people and give them details about how to use it!  Especially Tom at work!

Look what we found!!!!





It is amazing what you can find with a little diggin through the cupboards. B-man had the great idea of putting these on our heads. He says he feels like king tut in his hat. Well that just cracked me up because tut sounds like 'toot' which is one of the things minkeys love to do (especially this minkey)!!! After a while, I decided I would try to do a headstand with my cool new hat on. It was tricky getting up there. Bernardo sat back and watched, he was too chicken to try... BAWK, BAWK Bernardo, BAWK, BAWK!!! Now, here is where the problem lies. With this thing on my head, I couldn't get back down from my headstand and I had to do A LOT of apologizing to get some help from you know who. After much pleading and tooting in fear, Bernardo helped me down and we continued to play. I took off my hat and turned it into a megaphone and jumpped up on B-man's hat and had some fun. I was shouting orders to Jen, like "keep on dusting", "that mirror isn't going to clean itself" and "you missed a spot". She looked a bit irritated with me, but she just left us alone. I think she said something under her breath about some new dust rag she could use, and was wondering how yarn could help pick up dust. I don't know what she was talking about?!? Unfortunatley, I had an accidental toot (or five) on Bernardo's head and the fun and games were over. Oh, well... I am sure we can find something else to play with.... I wonder what's in the fridge?

Happy Mother's Day!!!

Since Brian and Jen don't have any kids yet, and technically Jen did create us, we thought it would be nice and write Jen a poem or two for mother's day.  We can be so mischievous and time consuming we also decide to be good little minkeys and give her the day off.  (But not Brian!!!  We may sneak attack him again today!)  Anyway, here is our first poem:


Roses are Red
Violets are Blue
Jen's Super Awesome
She taught us not to fling poo!

We will try to write another one today, but we are going to take a break to play for a while.  By the way, check out our hats!  We stole them from Brian's sock drawer!!! Minkeys out!

Field Trip 2.0

Well, Brian is a fuddy duddy!  He wouldn't let us come to yoga with him and he said I can't work on my Iron Man outfit because I might damage myself with the scissors!!  So instead we thought we would give you some more pics from our fun filled field trip to Jen's school. (nice alliteration, huh!)  This is B-man and I playing on the pencil sharpener.  He tried to convince me to put my tail in there and he would sharpen it for me, but I said "No...No...".  He would have unraveled me!!! Does he want to be a solo minkey?!?
Next, we played hide and seek and I found the best hiding place.  B-man didn't find me for almost an hour.  It was a good thing he found me when he did, it was getting pretty stinky in there.... I wonder why.....

Lastly, we decided to put the libraries copy machine to good use.  It made our butts nice and toasty warm.  Unfortunately, Jen found us and threw away the copy before we could post it.  She didn't think people would really be interested in looking at monkey butts on the internet.  I know I would find it interesting!
