Well, in this house, fungi are favorites!  Mama makes a mushroom risotto that at least I get to sniff,  No sweet onions, no white wine, no chicken broth (made with onions) or fungi for me. DARN. BUT…sometimes a sniff is as good as a savor, right?...

                  Well, there is no ban on bains around here!  But I must prepare mentally…shhh.

            Doggies are doing WHAT? Wow, Mya’s maman just sent us an article from The Guardian about dogs being trained to  detect COVID19 and mama found a similar article from the same newspaper.

Who Was That Masked Kitty?

Posted by on Sep 17, 2020 | 20 comments

  Okay, okay, so not many in health professions (or otherwise!) wear this one. But at least it covers my nose and mouth! Well, it seems that those who wear their masks and are out and about, possibly around airborne COVID from a sneeze or cough, will get (if they do get) a smaller dose of COVID virus than if they are not masked.  And if the other...

                  Safer snoozing…LARGE bed. Well, but sometimes at night when the anthros are watching Line of Duty or an old movie or a soccer match, I place myself comfortably on the opposite couch (my personal couch, I might say as I  leave no room for others to annoy my snooze…) and snooze away....
