Snow Day and Sisterly Bonding

What a great sisterly bonding day today. Eryn and I started off our day with taking Cheeto (my mom's kitten) to the vet. He is at that age where his man parts need to be removed before his hormones start raging.

So we loaded the cat carrier and he was a great trooper. He was quiet the entire fifteen-minute drive the vet, only meowing once. When we dropped him off, the women there loved his huge eyes and his obedience. He really is a great kitty.

We came home and worked out, showered, and got ready to go to Springfield. The roads were not great today, but Springfield schools were still in session, so there wasn't much traffic when we made it into town. We went straight to PetLand on Battlefield to find Cheeto a new collar. He has lost two collars in the past week and a half, so we went searching for a more reliable one.

PetLand is awesome. There are hundreds of leashes in every pattern you could ever imagine. There are also live reptiles, fish, ferrets, birds, hamsters, rabbits, and puppies. There were so many adorable puppies of all kinds, that we had to go up to each cage and look at each one. I decided if I were to get a dog when I get older, I want one that doesn't get large, like a pug or beagle.

We found a light blue collar that looks fabulous on Cheeto. This one will be harder for him to take off.

We then had lunch at WhichWich, my favorite place to eat. You can customize any sandwich you have ever dreamed and they will make it for you, exactly as you order. In addition, the food just tastes darn good. What more can you ask for? I hope Iowa gets one in the future. My life will then be complete.

We then had lattes at Fog City Coffee, a small coffee shop in Springfield. However, don't let size deceive you. The coffee at Fog City is to die for. I love it. It is the second best coffee (next to Caribou Coffee) I have ever tasted.

Eryn and I meandered our way to The Palace to see Unstoppable. It was a great movie.I would highly recommend it if you enjoy intense action mixed with incredible acting.

This evening, we relaxed and baked some cookies. They are definitely good enough to fit in our future cookbook. One day, this cookbook will come together and we WILL get it published. This is a dream of mine. Hey, for a small-town young woman from Missouri, this is a big dream. I do believe dreams come true.
