A book thoughtfully provided by the Rock Chick so her Papa can build her a jeweller's bench for Christmas! (It's American, hence the spelling). Naturally I decided to read it.
It was most enlightening, because up till now I had thought of jewellery-making and silversmithing as a dainty craft ... how wrong was I! The outcome may be dainty but there is brute force and hazards involved. Now I am worried about the Rock Chick surrounded by dangerous heat, chemicals and fumes, which just goes to show that ignorance can be bliss.
Maybe I will get over it if she makes me something nice ...
Day 325; Book 315
Seasoned street cat spent over 500 days deciding if the persistent people
who care for him are really willing to make him their indoor king: ‘We fed
[him] outdoors for a year and a half.’

The patience it takes to adopt some cats is truly profound. But the result
of having a floofy feline ruling over your home is always worth it.
Some cat ado...
