Shhh - it's a secret

Dear RCK,

Now that K is six - a family secret can now be revealed. Your great-great-great grandmother was a witch. Not a horrible witch so often portrayed today in books and movies but a good witch.  Here at the cottage, dear Esmeralda, a very sweet but not very bright witch, posted the sign for the monthly witches meeting and of course forgot to take it down. Luckily the neighbors thought it was a great joke and hence the sign has  remained for humans to view. On the 13th day of every month at the stroke of midnight, you will see that the parking is full off  broomsticks.... More to be revealed in later blogs.  Hugs, C

“When a male is sweet on a female, he searches the entire beach to find the perfect pebble to present to her. When he finally finds it, he waddles over and presents the stone by placing it at her feet. If she accepts, they’ll be life-long mates.”

Happy Chinese New Year

Year of the






People born in the Year of the Rabbit are articulate, talented, and ambitious. They are virtuous, reserved, and have excellent taste. Rabbit people are admired, trusted, and are often financially lucky. They are fond of gossip but are tactful and generally kind. A rabbit year is quiet, giving respite after the year of the tiger!
