The Sweet Relief of Escaping Danger
Once, while driving in Vermont during a snowstorm, my mom and I spotted a moose at the far end of a field we were passing. Crazy with excitement, we stopped the car and got out to take pictures. It was so pretty, all the whiteness, the quiet created by the onslaught of snowflakes. After several minutes of taking pictures, we noticed the moose had not changed position.

Like a Cat on the Wall
Hello, my name is Sonia and I’m addicted to collecting cat art. I have an entire wall dedicated to my addiction, in fact, and one day I’ll snap a photo for you. Luckily the wall is currently filled, but if we move into a bigger house soon (fingers crossed!) I’m worried all that new blank wall space will call out, “Meow!”
If it does, there are already a few prints that have caught my eye. Here are a few if you’re wondering what to send over as a housewarming gift >.<

This snorgle-riffic little dude — pictured in his home in San Francisco — was also in my holiday brunch post from December. Someone was a little too lazy to chase ice this time, though.
Marylanders Show Support for Pit Bulls
Maria wrote last week about the Maryland Court of Appeals’ disappointing decision to deem all pit bulls and pit bull mixes “vicious and inherently dangerous.” There has been so much coverage of this ruling and a lot of outcry. I’ve seen rumors on facebook that some shelters have stopped accepting pit bulls during this time, and even worse, that some have put down their pit bull mixes. I hope those are just rumors. Due to the ramifications of this legislation, there is a lot of support for pit bulls in Maryland. I live in Maryland and I’ve been contacted by a couple friends to sign a petition asking the Governor not to discriminate against pit bulls. The petition has received 9,000 signatures and counting. Yesterday there was a rally outside the Maryland State House — which just happens to be right outside my office window — standing up for many peoples’ beloved breed. It drew a large crowd even with rainy weather. News also came out that pit bulls may get a second chance during a special legislative session.
