little things in life


I have a cat. Her name is Izwi, which means 'voice' in the local tongue. She is VERY verbal and thus deserves her name:) She also loves to hunt. Yesterday she caught two little lizards outside. I have a great picture of her eating a little snake that she caught last month... She has been a great help with mice in the house, for some reason I don't hear or see any these days:)




In February, Ted Rabenold came up with a couple 'bee' hives to start collecting honey. They found a hive that I had living under my roof, but not inside. One afternoon we all watched the show as He and Mike Caraway and Dani, donned suits and went to work stirring up the hive. They didn't find any honey only a bucket of comb. It was the wrong season. A week later the bees moved into a tree for a few days and finally into the box. Ted was stoked that they now live there and plans to collect honey in May!
