Today is International Hug Your Cat Day! I actually got to give Ivory a hug today. She almost never lets me pick her up. Of course, she demanded treats for tolerating me. Gidgette cuddled with me this morning while I was doing the rounds of the interwebs. I didn’t see the kousins today. I will…
I’ve never been much into gardening. When I lived in S. Korea, I had a bit of an indoor succulent garden. A couple of summers ago, I had a lime basil plant that really thrived. It was an amazing flavor. I put some in strawberries, and made a strawberry shortcake. Last summer, I put in…

I even learned a new weather term, graupel. Today’s forecast high in Cleveland is 48. Average high for today is 68. …
I went to the Big Creek Reservation of the Clevland MetroParks. It was the first time I’ve been to that particular park. There were ducks. All but one were mallards. And then there were Canada geese. Two of them. With four goslings. The goslings were fuzzy. Cuteness overload! I took so many pictures. Plus I…
Ivory, a roughly six pound cat, has made a huge divot in one of the cushion making up the back of the couch. But the way I found her hanging out the other day is just hysterical. She was sitting, but stretched out just like a human. I could only laugh.
