Bonnie Reading through all of the posts to this discussion, this one has expressed my feelings almost exactly. I'm not going to make any big declarations about staying or not staying right now. I'll have to see what myLot becomes. But I am really just so...

Bonnie ....what purpose is served if the whole truth is not known: Well, I suppose that the person is making themselves feel better about whatever the situation. Some people do real well in lying to themselves, you know.

Bonnie I use extra virgin olive oil and not much of it. Just enough to make a little coating. Don't measure really. Just a few drizzles.

Bonnie Oh, I forgot to say.....the sugar helps to make the potatoes/vegetables crispy on the outside and tender in the inside. The soaking is done to release the major amount of starch in the potaotes.

Hello to all of my myLot friends. Yesterday, and the day before, my city of Denver/Aurora, was hammered with snow. We got about 2 feet all together after all was said and done. I thought about all the elderly who would have...

Bonnie Ha! Snow is gone now. We've been lucky this year. Seems like all of the snow storms have just skirted us. Hope that holds out. Thanks for the offer.

My cat, Allie, has been with me since 2009. I got her from the humane society as a rescue when she was four years old. She had been abused as her owner had shaved her of every bit of her hair even down to cutting off her whiskers....

Bonnie Banjo and Allie both prove that cats have long memories. And can carry a grudge far beyond what humans do!!! I've become accustomed to having no cuddles. She's just not into them. Allie has her own pillow in the bed that she sleeps on and has to...

Bonnie Those tape brushes don't last long enough for me. I just keep a roll of three-inch tape close to hand to use. Allie doesn't go outside so we're not worried about burrs and mud and the like. Thank you for responding, pat. Hope all is going well with you and...

Bonnie You are correct in that. Even though I try to brush her regularly, the shedding continues. She's grooming herself more frequently too and so I had to increase the hairball remedy to every other day instead of weekly. Thank you for responding, winterose. Hope...

Bonnie Thanks for responding, wolfie. How's it going with you? It does sound like your kitty is happy regardless of age. I had to euthanize my thirteen year old fur kid a few years ago and it was terribly traumatic on us. But after an appropriate mourning period,...

Bonnie Hi, bon....Dogs usually adjust well to cats. I've had multiple households before. The dogs thought they had to protect the cats. They didn't know that cats are pretty much their own protection. Maybe you need to give Coco some brushing a couple of times a...
