Thistle, caught in the act of eating wooly thyme while hiding beneath the new potting bench.

   ????? Does Romney have a reputation for harrassing bunnies, or for stealing herbs from small people? I think we should be told.

   Thistle looks guilty, poor guy. Tell him to chill.

   Quote from Romney, yesterday:

   “I’m not a big-game hunter. I’ve made that very clear,” he said. “I’ve always been a rodent and rabbit hunter. Small varmints, if you will. I began when I was 15 or so and I have hunted those kinds of varmints since then. More than two times.”

   I imagine Thistle would bristle (can bunnies “bristle”?) if he were called a “varmint” to his cute little face.
