BYC Café

Did I miss something? :confused: I'm sorry if my little girl puke offended you Cluck. :hugs You should know that nothing that comes out of my mouth (er… no pun intended) is ever intended to be hurtful.

Everyone at the Café knows that. Simply put this is not a hurtful place - anything but.

Shad - I LOVE your construction pictures and the design of your house. I'm a bit of a construction junky

Meg - that calf is just adorable! I had no idea they could be such a color. And I'm eager to read the story.

FC - I can't deal with the roaches! But I applaud you raising them as fresh food for your other critters.
