in the kitchen...
Every winter I like to bake a ton of cookies for the neighbors. It usually starts off with good cheer and ambition—a sometime conservative estimation of the number of cookies I’ll need (usually because I underestimate the # of cookies per batch).

that crazy cat
Duke’s in full recovery and back to his old ways :) As usual, he greeted us in the morning with commanding meows for his breakfast (and an hour later, a snack).  Unfortunately, this crazy cat was too impatient to wait for Monday to remove his feeding tube and somehow managed to remove it HIMSELF last night.
