Our rescue cat Ollie has a variety of lovely sleeping places - a sunny window sill, various sofas, a nice fabric footstool, a bed, and so on.

So where is he sleeping? Yup - on top of two scratching boards.

You have to love cats.

When you visit Temu and inadvertantly leave your email address there this is what happens.

I've never purchased from them but they seem keen on getting orders from me. From the comments I see some of their stuff is OK, some is quite deplorable, and some is just plain average. Lottery purchasing!

While loafing around online this morning I stumbled across this recipe, now all I can think about is berry cheesecake.

Is this cake healthy? We've been trying to convince ourselves that the berries and oatmeal will counterbalance the cream cheese and sugar. We've not convinced ourselves yet.

From book by Carlos Ruiz Zafon. From Shadow in the Wind. “Bea says that the art of reading is slowly dying, that it's an intimate ritual, that a book is a mirror that offers us only what we already carry inside us, that when we read, we do it with all our heart and mind, and great readers are becoming more scarce by the day.”

Very snowy day here in the Blackdown Hills in East Devon, normally you can see hills in the distance but not today. Also local roads are chaos as there are a lot of steep hills, apparently tractors out towing people off them at present. The joys of country living!
