    A woman after my own heart! I always get excited when I put fresh sheets on the bed! In my opinion there’s nothing better than curling up with fresh linens and blankets! Best part of my day. I tell my husband “we get to sleep like royalty tonight” when I put fresh sheets on! It’s the little things in life!!! Love all the pictures of the chimps snuggling their blankets! Makes me smile!

      These are wonderful photos; thank you!! It’s easy to see her depth of soul in each picture. It’s always a gift in my day to open the blog! Thank you!!

    We all need a good den mother in our lives. Jody is just so dear.

    I especially love the 2nd photo where JoJo is resting on her pink shag blanket & has that little bit of lettuce stuck to her lower lip…That dreamy look on her face is so sweet…There’s “something” about her that makes her SO endearing…

    She likes what I like – way to go girl. I like blankets, lettuce every single day,
    carrots, and snuggling. She is so cute and looks very very happy in her forever
    home now.

    While it is true that my chimpanzee pal enjoys carrots and lettuce, any profile of Jody Chimpanzee is incomplete without noting her contribution to contemporary paleontology: if you want to know what a contented dinosaur sounded like, have a listen to Jody savor a pumpkin! Pure, unadulterated bliss!
