Daily Distraction — Tue, 16 Apr 2013 08:00:10 +0000

[onescreen item="4997308"] Lobsters have giant claws and a nasty temperament, but they’re also DELICIOUS. The delectable crustaceans do have a rather scary appearance, at least when they aren’t fully cooked, bright red and sitting on your plate next to a shell cracker and a tub of melted butter. This makes them a delightful prop with [...]

Daily Distraction — Wed, 03 Apr 2013 08:00:04 +0000

[onescreen item="5031866"] Cats vs. mirrors: the battle rages on. We suppose it could be confusing, but a lot of these cats are grown-up cats—by now you’d think they’d recognize that other cat who keeps doing the making the exact same movements they’re making. As for the kittens, it’s just a part of growing up. Cherish [...]

Daily Distraction — Fri, 29 Mar 2013 08:00:15 +0000

[onescreen item="5029987"] We don’t know what’s gotten into these guys. Maybe some of them just aren’t cut out for life on the farm.
