I definitely slacked this week. I haven’t been to the grocery store and I didn’t get anything new for pick of the week. So, I decided to do a little round-up of some lovely posts I’ve come across lately. It’s a pretty long list. I couldn’t narrow it down! But hopefully something will strike you. Ready? Here we go.
Remember these:

We started leaving these two characters out of their cages this week after Tucker figured out (after months of trying) how to unlatch both latches on his cage while inside of it.

I read the article about diet soda. I did find it interesting, and I truly believe it’s addictive. Maybe not the product itself, but like the article said, it turns into a habit FAST!
