First, I want to thank everyone for the thoughtful comments on my post about dear
Mr.
Ed. We were just out to our property today to do some clean-up and tear off the vines from the old chicken coop and I was able to visit where
Ed has been laid to rest. It's hard to do this, there are tears, but I come away feeling thankful for the time we had with him and at peace with his passing. He had such a long life for a cat (26 years) and although we only knew him for his last 6 years we could not have loved him more. It was such a privilege to be able to care for him in his senior years and give him a loving home. We will never regret adopting him at the age of 20 from our local shelter and we recommend to anyone who is thinking of giving a mature cat a second chance at a good, loving home to go for it. Just do it. These cats know when you have saved them and will give you more love than you can imagine.
They deserve that and I know we will do it again.
Once home, it was time for a healthy treat.
A hot cup of tea in a beautiful pottery mug, hummus from
The Good Food Co. in our town, crackers and some
blueberries. A simple and delicious snack.
Oh, I do see you,
Lily.
As always, I am never alone in the kitchen. :)
So tonight I am sending you over to visit another of my favorite blogs,
A Brit in Tennessee. I find myself getting lost in the gorgeous scenery and the calming music that accompanies you as you visit with
Jo. She will show you around her home, her fabulous gardens and introduce you to her feline companions,
Oliver and Tom. So grab a tea, get comfy and enjoy the time you spend visiting this little piece of paradise.
