“When a caterpillar bursts from its cocoon and discovers it has wings, it does not sit idly, hoping to one day turn back. It flies.†― Kelseyleigh Reber Kitty litter buckets make iffy watering pails. Sure, they’re big enough and sturdy enough, but the handles are floppy and nine times out of ten I end up spilling water—cold from the… Read More
