cat, butter, and snow

I am really getting tired of the weather. It seems you just get it cleaned up and more of the white crap arrives. Hopefully soon we will have warmer, dryer weather. I found out my cat likes butter. I wouldn't mind but the butter she likes is mine... In the cold weather I leave the butter out. I was feeding her this morning, and she jumped up on the counter and started kicking the butter. Yag!!! How long has that been going on.  I am buying a covered butter dish tomorrow. I KNOW where her tongue has been.
