For the last month, I've been posting on a regular basis over on a new blog I started for just that purpose... called Primal Baker ( Read more... )

Nothing has convinced me more that our cats should have a raw food diet than when Luci deciced to go 'hunting' for the eggs on my lap, spilling them all over my kindle and then devouring them when I got up to clean them off.
