I am so worried about Murray. He continues to consume things he’s not supposed to. Last week, right after I wrote about his recent chewing fiasco, I came to discover he’d eaten the straw off Emory’s drinking cup. It was out of my site for about 15 minutes. And he’d never touched it before.

Items Murray has chewed up or eaten recently. (The string was pulled out of his throat just in time.)
I don’t know what to do. I hope it passes through him. I’m really at a loss for ways to help him and keep him from ER visits. You all have been amazing when it comes to suggestions, and I have tried most of them, but nothing seems to be helping.

I love this man.
I am not trying to sound dramatic, but I worry that someday Murray is going to eat something that’s going to kill him. It’s either that, or the next visit to the ER is going to give him a heart attack. And I really, really love this cat.

We went to the Bronx Zoo on Saturday. I can’t put into words how awesome of a day we had. It was probably one of the best days of my life.

I know it isn’t really apple season, but I’m from Pennsylvania. Plus, I can’t think of too many smells more awesome than baking apples.

This post was going to be about organic food and locavores both of which are growing trends here in America. Just last week, Michelle Obama planted an organic vegetable garden on the White House lawn – the first garden at the White House since the FDR administration.

I visited our local pet store recently to get Murray some vitamins. My hopes are to stifle whatever is that’s making him consume weird and dangerous plastic things. The owner there knows all about Murray.

I discovered this recipe five or so years ago and I’ve been loosely following it ever since. These biscuits probably aren’t going to win any awards, but they sure do hit the spot! Clocking in at a 10 minute preparation and clean up time, you simply can’t beat the taste-time ratio.

I jog. I jog so I can eat cake. I’m not kidding.
I’m a slow, steady runner. I jog between an 11-minute mile and a 12-minute mile. I jog five times a week and I love it.

I sent out a Twitter yesterday mentioning we’re in the process of researching play kitchens. And almost every single person told me to get this one. So, unless someone tells us there’s an even better option out there, that’s the one we’ll be ordering. (Although, check this one out! Sometimes I have to remind myself that these toys aren’t for me.)

Today’s crowd-sourcing research topic is taken from a conversation I had with a couple of moms I know. It’s about sexual identity and our kids.
