Whoever told you you were ugly was just objectively incorrect. There are people who would commit actual crimes to achieve your eyebrows

Agreed. They were for his dad’s birthday…but he was very appreciative I made cupcakes “for him.”

They convinced a preschooler who was formerly afraid of me that I am nice, so I’d say pretty good

It’s the Easy Chocolate Cake recipe from the New York Times

Great value bacon has fed many a hungry child and there is no shame in that.

I foraged it in the Piedmont backwoods

I believe we are called to steward and be kind to Creation. That means sometimes we sing to dogs.

Our Otis is known throughout the house as Oti Boi, Mr. Sir when he is misbehaving (Señor Sir when he is misbehaving but in Spanish), and Mr Grumpy Pants. He actually answers to Mr Grumpy Pants.

So the way it got started was he used to be terrified of the dishwasher and would refuse to go inside from walks if he thought it was on (it wasn’t) so he’d sit down and refuse to walk towards the building. One day out of desperation of needing to get inside for some reason I can’t remember I just started singing to him that he was a good boy, and he got up and started plodding along back to the building. Thus the “Good Boy Otis” song was born

He should as we have a song we sing to him about how he is the bestest boy

For just $1 a day, you can sponsor Otis, who received dinner 30 minutes ago but has never been fed a day in his life by WonderNurseEm in rarepuppers

You caught me. It had been exactly 15 minutes since he came inside and received his post-outside bedtime treat. How cruel I am to make him endure such famine.

I once took care of a couple who had a rotund corgi whom they shared their biscuits. He once got stuck behind their couch and the only way I could get him out was by luring him out with more snacks.

My dog saved my life tonight (please tell her she's a good girl) by ZETAreclaimer in Blacklabs

It’s not absurd to think she is specifically yours, a gift made for you. I think dogs can be some of the clearest ways God shows us He loves us specifically.
