A whole “mess” of kittens for your viewing pleasure, plus here are three of the most “fashionably” marked kittens I’ve ever seen. And brace yourselves for a whole marmalade […]
Here I will admit that I don’t drink, not because I’m any sort of puritan, ‘coz I ain’t. It’s just that being “a woman of a certain age”, my hormones decided that alcohol and I are incompatible. Now I only have to sniff the stuff and I get a headache, which has taken all the […]
“In February, Britain scored second from the bottom in a Unicef report that used 40 indicators, like relative poverty, health and family relationships, to measure children’s well-being in 21 industrialized countries. (Only the United States scored lower.)”
Heartening news, isn’t it?
Poor British youth face drink, drugs and alienation
Polar bears, sea ice and global warming are taboo subjects, at least in public, for some U.S. scientists attending meetings abroad, environmental groups and a top federal wildlife official said on Thursday.
Environmental activists called this scientific censorship, which they said was in line with the Bush administration’s history of muzzling dissent over global climate […]
Admittedly this recipe serves four, so you’ll probably need to freeze leftovers. (Rice keeps in the ‘fridge for a day or two, but deteriorates rather badly after that.)

Set brilliantly to music. Mind you, I’m a real sucker for a “happy ending”, so I would have liked to have seen her finally get the biscuit!

This dish, known as Pot au Fur (that’s as opposed to Pot au Feu), or Nabemono in Japan (nabe cooking pot + mono things) and, which would be a good name for a pot-loving cat, seems to be […]

Like Josh at My Cat Wears Clothes, or, in this case, the humans wear “cat clothing”, I also haven’t seen the musical, Cats. Maybe you haven’t either, so I thought I would pass along this video of clips.
