Meet Mabel

Mabel was the runt out of a litter of 5 and was bottle fed. She weighs 7.2 lbs  and in her three years has grown into her personality.

This morning I was working in our home office which is on the second floor when I heard Mabel stretching her vocal cords. I could hear her yowl through closed windows and a light rain. Swiftly moving downstairs, thinking something was wrong, I found her sitting on our chaise lounge chair on the back deck.

Opening the door to let her in, Mabel proceeded to look from me to the wet deck then back up at me, she continued to meow/ yowl. 

She refused to jump down and walk 3 feet into the house because of the rainwater that had collected on the deck. 

Yes, I walked a few steps to retrieve her and bring her to warmth and dry floors. 

Over the last few years, Mabel has learned to communicate her needs with us and she is persistent. 

We can learn a lesson from Mabel whose basic needs are met: she has shelter, comfy bedding for her to choose from throughout the house,  high quality food, lots of space to roam, many belly rubs and more. She asks for what she needs and on that particular day, it was a lift.

Not only can I assist our cats, I can help you too!

Are you feeling stuck on what to serve for dinner or lunch? Have items in your pantry that have been purchased yet you are not sure how to combine them with other ingredients? Heard of other plants such as hearts of palm or jackfruit and are stuck for ideas?

On May 3rd, we are hosting a workshop from 5:30-7:00 pm, creating sauces to take your meals to a new level.  On May 10th, we will show you how to use vegetables to create sauces. Did you know that you can combine potatoes, carrots, onions and seasonings to create a cheese sauce for veggies or pasta? Take that same cheese sauce and add fire roasted tomatoes, chili peppers and hot sauce and it becomes a sauce for nachos. 

Let us teach you how to create simple sauces that you will be turning to over and over!

P.S. Behind the scenes, we’ve been cooking up ideas to simplify your life! Breaking news in the new few week
