Caramel Cheesecake is a great way to end a (very belated) Valentine’s dinner.
Photo of a round mini cheesecake with ice cream on top, drizzled with caramel. It sits on a white plate with a metal spoon in front and pecans in a pile at the edge of the frame. A man’s hands can vaguely be seen in the background.

Um, hi Tabitha. Welcome to my lap.
Close up of the face and paws of a tabby cat lying on a lap, partially obscured under a computer tray. Skull pajama pants, tan shirt, and pale green blanket can be seen. The cat has a determined expression and long white whiskers.

No, it’s fine, I don’t need to pee or put on dinner. Just keep on sleeping, Mischief.

Miss Bella says the fall of the American empire requires more naps.
Calico cat sleeping between two pale blue pillows on a bed. She’s siting up and leaning on one pillow, and her hips are resting on two blankets. The slatted headboard is behind her.

Get you a cat who looks at you the way Mayhem looks at me when I’m drawing and he wants snackies.

Miss Bella is also learning how to share her mama with her mama’s drawing board.

Someone (Mayhem) has learned that he has to share me with my drawing board.

Much woe and sorrow for the Mayhem.

Mischief finds her mother’s lap quite comfy. Mainly due to the blankie.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

I can’t breathe, it’s totally fine Mischief. No, honestly, who needs oxygen?

A rotten little calico (Miss Bona Bella) wrapped up in a blanket on top of a heating pad, in MY spot in the bed.

Oh, to be this loved.
