   I left the litter box too long one time, and my husband and I woke up to the sound of someone using the toilet. Not him. Not me. It was the cat. (And no, it never occurred to us till years later that we should have just taken away the litter box and let her keep using the toilet…)

   One of my dad’s favorite sayings was “I complained because I had no shoes until I met a man who had no feet.”

    If you have a ragweed allergy, you won’t ever “adjust” to stevia: it’s part of the asteraceae family and is related to the daisy and ragweed. I had a nasty reaction and now read all labels very closely!
