Panda-ing in a Winter Wonderland….

Well, Babette no sooner gets back from the beach, then it’s off to the frozen North for a Ski Vacation!  Babette is certainly  a “Bear on the Go” with her dashing through the snow alpine ski outfit.  Nothing says “Winter Wonderland” quite like Babette’s panda button quilted ski jacket and bamboo patterned cashmere scarf, scarlet ski pants and boot toppers knitted from cat fur left on the furniture!

And just who will be waiting at the bottom of the black and white diamond run as Babette comes shushing down the slopes?  Who will be ready to provide a hot cocoa and cuppycake feast in front of the roaring fire in the lodge?  Will it be the shy, but dependable Bob T. Panda?  Or, will  the dashing, devil may care artiste Claude Pandet be punching her lift ticket?

Rumor has it, Babette’s next vacation spot is “The Magic Kingdom”!

Tune in tomorrow to find out!

Babette at the Beach!

Beach bikini babette

We can’t thank new panda friend Sylvia C. enough for sending these photos of Babette taking a well earned mini-holiday at the southern California coast.  All that rain, wind, and foul weather just gets a panda down, don’t ‘cha know?  Babette is wearing a stunning blue and yellow polka dot bikini…not quite teensy weensy, because, well, let’s not go there OK?

babette and sand castle

As you can see here, it’s not all play and no work!  Babette has designed and built a sand castle model of the new wing of the Hospital for Indigent Pandas.  As you know, Babette founded this hospital in Greenbank WA, and spends many hours selflessly  tending to pandas with her tender touch.  (Her nurses outfit will be showing up any day now, to add to her wardrobe!)

babette in tide pool

Here we see Babette, examining some tide pool life.  In addition to her hospital work, Babette also has a degree in Marine Biology.  Or was it that she went to a sushi bar once? Whatever.  Soon Babette will be winging her way back to the frozen north, so that she can model her new ski ensemble!

PS…no, I don’t know why she went off to California without me.

A holiday greeting from The Institute of Contemporary Panda Satire

While we work on new cartoons, such as new outfits for Babette de Panda, the growing problem of panties discarded in space from the panda space shuttle program, and the panda kindergartens holiday production of “Panda on the Roof” (a musical), we bring you a panda holiday greeting!

Till next time,

Be the Bear!

They’re here! They’re Here! The Scottish Pandas Arrive at last!

We have been waiting for this day for so long, (never mind that in the real world it happened a week ago, but still…) the pandas arrive in Scotland.  The ZooNooz reporting team would have been there to meet them, but for a slight communications mix up.

A big thanks to all of you who have been visiting The Panda Chronicles.  Your brain is officially now on pandas.

David Ossman and Babette de Panda

Ok panda fans,  here is the first photo of the Babette de Panda Paper Doll of the season.  She appears with noted artist, writer and performing person (as opposed to dancing bears) David Ossman, of Firesign Theater fame.  Note: this photo is not eligible for our big prize, as the photographer is one of the judges for our little competition.

It’s beginning to look a lot like….Pandas!

Continuing the holiday theme, while I wait for myself to quit messing around on the computer (arrrgh) and finish my cartoons about the Scottish Panda arrival, we have another heartwarming story brought to you by the panda kindergarten.

I swear, tomorrow is another day (at the drawing board)

Oh my gosh It’s Day 27, with an added bonus! Tails (!) from Black (and White) Friday

I try not to listen to the news too much because it just depresses the heck out of me.  Just what are some people thinking as they go about their business?  This is not limited to “People in the News” such as celebrities or politicians.  Sometimes your everyday person on the street makes a decision that is so boneheaded you wonder how they can remember to breathe.  A case in point is the person who thought it would be a really good idea to take pepper spray when she hit the Black Friday sales, to make sure she had no competition at the sale table.  Pandas, of course would never do anything so thoughtless.  As we see from the following cartoon, Bob has a much more …um …organic solution to the art of competitive shopping.

Black friday shopping tactics

See what I mean?

And now, without further ado, here is day 27 of 30 Days of Pandas!  I’m almost done….I think they are all going to fit!

Be the Bear (poof!)
