Dealing with loss
Last week, I had to say goodbye to my sweet, sassy, beautiful Lola Bear. We fought hard alongside her for 4 long days, but in the end, her little body just couldn't fight any longer and we had to make the heart-breaking decision that every animal carer dreads in order to help her over the … Continue reading Dealing with loss

Crosstown Cinnamon Scroll doughnut
I somehow question how I make it through the weeks without doughnuts. I don't have them every week, but on the weeks I do get these extra little treats, it is just the most comforting and rewarding thing possible.
