A-Z blogging challenge "K" - Koalas



Today I decided to "talk about" (i.e. show cute pictures of) koalas, because I'm ever so slightly middle-of-the-week zombified and all I could think of was chocolate. And before you freak out and assume I smother koalas in chocolate and eat them for dessert each night, you'll know what I really mean when you get to the end of this post. ;)



How cute is that?!

This guy is cresssssssy!

Aaand this one's acrobatic!

Now, onto the chocolate part. These aren't so much cute as yummy:


And I am done now.

  1. Very cute.

    I still have a grand-fatherly looking stuff koala sitting on my living room shelves - I got him when I was just a wee tyke.

    Does anybody else remember using Koala Painter graphics editor program on Commodore 64 computers? We had that in school when I was going into grade 4.

  5. They are cute, aren't they? And a picture speaks a thousand words! I know how you feel too. I'm thinking of taking the month of May off blogging...

  7. I read somewhere koalas suffer from a lot of STDs (fun fact). That's what happens when you're too cute.

  8. @Samantha - yes, I know how you feel. Foolishly I already signed up for a Blogfest in May. :D But at least it won't be nearly as crazy that month as the this one and March have been for me ;)

    @Lynda - I only have them now and then, mostly when I take them overseas for friends/family and end up eating some myself. haha

    @mooderino - wow, I did NOT know that. that's a little bit sad for sure! Guess all the too cute creatures out there should beware :P

  9. My mind did not go immediately to chocolate covered koalas, but thanks for the clarification. I've been having a bit of a chocolate problem myself this week. Good luck getting over the middle of the week!

  11. Nice post! Koalas are cute as all hell. The pictures you chose do these creatures a fine justice. And those yummy candies, I've never had 'em. But now I'm on the relentless hunt for 'em!

    Great "K" post!

    L'Aussie - as you said elsewhere recently, the Aussies streak ahead :P I guess time differences will do that! ;)
