The adoption of Sonsie
A few days ago, I mentioned that I was looking for a kitten. I preferred to rescue a kitten vs. buying one, but when I had no luck adopting from a rescue organization, I contacted a seller.

Get Creative with Belgian Endive
The question 'What's for dinner?' is often met with 'I have no idea', 'Any suggestions?' or a huff and a puff accompanied by a headshake. The cook is fresh out of ideas.

Strollers Should be Banned on Public Transportation During Peak Hours
One of my pet peeves is strollers on public transportation. If it were up to me, I would ban them. While I understand that parents and their children need to get around, during peak hours strollers should not be allowed on a train, bus or streetcar.
