The Red-Letter-Day-Black

If Spook was a prized cat breed, she’d have defied all the rules of that breed. She was black, with black fur, black whiskers, black paw pads and clear yellow-green eyes.

Was she a Bombay Black? A Burma Black? Who knew. If Spook was a prized cat breed, she’d have defied all the rules of that breed. She was black, with black fur, black whiskers, black paw pads and clear yellow-green eyes. And yes, a wisp of white, below her mid-riff that made her look like she was ready for a bikini party.

Of weddings, reunions and a life of learning!

Of weddings, reunions and a life of learning!

We recently attended – and gloriously celebrated – the wedding of a friend’s daughter. Undoubtedly a special occasion, what made it even more special is that this friend is a school friend – one we’ve known since we were 5 and 6.
