I've been taking the dogs to the office the last few weeks, so I thought they might need a backpack to carry supplies like treats and poop bags. Well, Fosse is such a froufrou dog that she doesn't like to carry anything put pearls, so I made a backpack fo ...
One of my favorite "Doctor Who" episodes is the one in which the Doctor goes back in time to meet Vincent Van Gogh, and then takes him to the D'Orsay Museum in present day so the artist can see how popular and famous he has become. (I cry a lot at the end ...
