Cooking Marathons with Dragons

I really value this outlet and I appreciate everyone who has been following my spiritual journey, but right now I’m taking a break and I’d like to talk about some of my other adventures. Kittens!

“No offense, Scout”

Scout cashed in on the Norris Family Medical Plan today with a trip to the Waverly Animal Clinic. On the way, he yowled and howled. Candy usually has a few choice words for us when a car trip is in the making but she was sanguine. The senior cat. She offered an occasional, mild, “Meow,”ContinueContinue reading ““No offense, Scout””
