I am increasingly adjusting the food I eat, just to accommodate Gwen [View all]

Gwen's stomach seems to be a bottomless pit. Every time I sit down to eat she jumps up and aggressively tries to steal my food. Madoc and Merlin will sit, stare, and put on a starving act. If I can share with them, I will.

I am normally a BIG fan of lots and lots of garlic and onions. I love chocolate. My favorite dessert is cherry pie. If I want to indulge in any of these I have to pick a dry, warm day so I can eat my meal outside.

I am trying to find ways to distract her but, DAMN, she's so cute. Merlin used to be a lot more like Gwen so hopefully she will follow suit and calm down.

Have I mentioned how cute she is? My favorite part of the day is when she climbs up and rubs her face against mine and starts purring. Within a few minutes she falls asleep.
