Are You Sure You're From Around Here?

Today whilst walking to the farmer's market on Main Street (which is also Frederick Road, like how High Street in the UK can have another name as well), Craig looked at some trash in the gutter and saw something that looked like a KFC wrapper, but said KGC and just after saw a KFC wrapper. He noted that he thought the first one said KGC and we kept walking. Upon our return, we looked for the wrapper and found it and it DID say KGC. After a more thorough inspection, we saw that KGC stands for Kentucky Grilled Chicken and we were like, "What? When did that happen?" Still acclimating or (shall I say acclimatising?).

On another note, we keep seeing this cat wandering around the neighborhood that looks a lot like our cat, Gus, that disappeared at least 10 years ago. This is not the same cat by any means; he is much younger and stockier. However, today out of the blue, he ran right up to us meowing and rolled around for pets and just hung around like he belonged here. So, I caved. I fed him some food which he immediately snarfed down in record time.


We totally had been played, but he was super nice and actually didn't look mangy in the least. So I plan to keep a bowl of food on the porch during the day (not at night because we have raccoon issues) to see if he visits again. We named him Charlie Bucket in keeping with our Willie Wonka theme (Varuca Salt, Augustus "Gus" Gloop) and because he just has that orphaned boy look about him even though I think he is a she.
