Grocery Shopping

Short Stories From 10 Years Ago – April 8, 2004 – I have four cherry tomatoes, an egg, a tin of cat food and a bottle of white wine in my fridge. I know it’s time but I hate grocery shopping.

Small Things You Do Can Make A Big Difference

Heart Beats For Change – I often have people tell me that they “love animals” – but they could never do what I do – manage a blog –  look at horrible pictures – write articles – watch gruesome videos – participate in protest marches and attend lectures.
