Follow the road to Nowhere and pick your favorite flowers... It's the first day of spring.. The birds are singing, the sun is warm, it is a beautiful day..
Love,
Bebe

I've never seen this before - am loving the first few minutes already, with the beautiful english countryside and the enchanting singing!
TEA RAT: Dearest friends, I have been indisposed all week (there's this strange thing called "work" as the peeps call it) and I've been up to my whiskers in it....but I AM HOME now, here in NOWHERE where there are some suspicious but lovely paw prints! HARK! WHO GOES THERE?
RATTUS: Why old chap, it's spring. These look to me like racoon or maybe bear prints....
TEA RAT: You don't know your prints old thing...these look like dog prints to me....maybe it's Balzac my old fox terrier on the loose? Shall we go fetch him?
RATTUS: Let's. Let's also take a thermos of tea and meet Bebe and Miss Moussie for a picnic by the lake. And how did you, pray tell, make the MARQUIS for Nowhere? How on earth did Miss Moussie agree to a photo shoot with you, and YOU NEVER TAKE OFF YOUR BOOTS!
TEA RAT: I would take off my boots for her and her alone.....do you see how happy we are as we float on the lake of rosehips tea?
RATTUS: You are a hopeless romantic. But, it's SPRING!
(AWESOME DRAWINGS PENNY and DUTCHESS!) Let's have FUN!

Tea Rat: Oh, loosen you girdle already. Click your heels. Make a wish. ♪ ♫ There's Nowhere like home... ♪ ♫
Rattus: I'll excuse your cheek because you've obviously caught the bug. You'd never catch me losing me head with Spring fever.

Rattus: What a terrible tune? What is that?
Tea Rat: In a Gadda da Vida, by Iron Butterfly.

Bebe here... I have been out collecting more flowers for my sale, and Miss Moussie offered me a ride in her boat. What a marvelous time we had.. Will you just look at all the customers here? Best get busy. Love, Bebe
Why Rattus my dear friend. How very kind of you to write such a sweet poem... I am blushing. p.s Would you kindly tell Tea Rat I am all out of those particular flowers, but will locate some as soon as possible... If not, I still have some beautiful roses. yours truly, Bebe
TEA RAT: Oh Bebe, Rattus just informed me that you have some roses left....that will do! I will put them in a vase then in a few days, I will take the petals and strewn them on the path up to Wit's End cottage....please come and have tea with us? Bring a chocolate cake and I will supply the tea. XOXOXOXOX
Bebe: Yes Tea Rat... I have pink, white and yellow roses left. Oh thank you, I have lost my way to the Wit's End cottage before.. Drop as many petals as you can. I would love to have tea with you and Rattus.. Chocolate cake you say? Right away.. Let me get back to the kitchen.
TEA RAT: Oh Bebe dearest, those multi-colored roses will be smashing! Yes, bring as many colors and I will start to dot the path from downtown Nowhere and you will never, ever lose your way again.
And bring a Devil's Food chocolate cake, please? That women who draws me says her mum used to make the best and would love a wedge with my finest blend of tea....the kettle is always on for you.
Bebe: One Devil's food cake coming up Tea Rat! Mum said the kitchen smells delightful.. Oh yes, don't forget to dot the path.. I will be on my way shortly.
My dear Tea Rat... I followed the petals you put down and have arrived at Wit's end.. Well, actually I have been waiting for a few hours, and you have yet to arrive. I have some sad news regarding the cake you ordered. Because I had to wait a very long time, I had a piece, then another, then another... Oh dear.. Would you care to lick the plate? Your devoted friend (I hope) Bebe
BEBE! Tea Rat here...oh dear, you ate the whole cake my little friend? THAT'S MY GIRL! teeeeheheh...let's bake US a cake and we'll finish it off together, OK?
Bebe: Tea Rat, There you are! Oh yes, lets do! What flavor shall we have? How about I bake the cake and you make the icing.. Miss Moussie tells me you are the best at homemade icing, but would not tell me how you make it.

Rattus:
Oh Bebe, friend ours
as lovely as flowers
that grow on a bower
as high as a tower
know that each hour
in sunshine or shower
your beauty over powers
me

Is there a better way to welcome spring than with sweet Nowhere Friends? I think not!
Sa sweet, dear Penny!
