  • Plant your own pesticide-free vegetables

    Whenever I give public talks on eating less meat (which also means eating more vegetables), the counter argument to this is always this: Eating more vegetables means supporting the use of pesticides which kills millions and zillions of insects, which are also living beings. Then, I’d say, buy organic vegetables AND the counter argument to…

  • Igor brings Otto!

    And while Boss was sulking, Igor and Otto had other plans. Igor had brought Otto for dinner! I spotted Tabs looking at two shrews and a yellow butterfly in the garden. Igor?  Otto? When hungry, eat. When thirsty, drink. When you sense danger, RUN!! Life can be simple, if we make it so.

  • Mr Zurik vs….who??

    Shortly after Igor was done with dinner and had left the pantry, I heard whining inside the house… Mr Zurik had come into the kitchen and on hand to lodge the complaint is…Timmy! Timmy was whining non-stop. Vincent decided not to interfere. Timmy managed to make enough noise to get Mr Zurik out of the…

  • Igor visits…for lunch and dinner!

    Two shrews have been visiting our pantry very often these days. It all depends on their moods and the time of the day, but sometimes Cleo, Tabs, Indy and Cow will chase them. I am quite sure it’s Igor and Otto visiting… During lunch time today, we had a visit from Igor, I think? добрый…
