World, please meet leola.
I’m in the midst of recipe testing and book reviewing for upcoming MoFo posts, so I don’t have much to offer today. I would, however, like to introduce you to that attention-seeking orange tabby cat I refer to in my “About me” section. Here she is, the queen of the castle, Leola. I know she would be very pleased to meet you—even more so if you give her some attention, preferably in the form of a tummy rub.
She’s not a fan of vegan cake, but she does enjoy chatting with me while I’m in the kitchen: Mommy, I want food… Mommy, let me out into the sunroom so I can yell at the birds… Mommy, why do you spend so much time baking instead of paying attention to me? Okay, fine. I’m going to take another cat nap.
I love her with all my heart.
